Yesterday, Atari, EA and Vivendi-Universal filed a law suit against the creator of the game copying software Games X Copy. Citing its history of software products designed to circumvent copyright protection measures, the companies accuse 321 Studios of violating the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, which makes any attempt to reverse-engineer or otherwise circumvent copyright protection technologies illegal.

The members of the ESA request that 321 Studios be prohibited from making or selling any products that circumvent SecuROM and similar technologies. They also ask the offending company to retrieve all copies of the software and demand compensation for lost profits.
