Now the fun part...

You search the private key that matches the all 0's or the all 1's public key...

Ok, you can hang me now...

But what about using a microscope and finding the exact location of transistors that hold the public key bits?
Then you drill at the correct location in a way that will provoke the reading of 2048 zero's or 2048 1's.

Sounds good to me (logical enough lol), but I know absolutely nothing on the topic, so that won't do any good.
How about trying this yourself and posting the results. Then go make a modchip and make money. If you're looking to persuade someone else to try this approach, pm this to some known, knowledgeable hackers (if they havent thought of this already). If you're looking for praise for your ideas... well you probably wont get much before this topic is moved due to content (speculation in the tech. talk area..) smile.gif.

 No more yegger for him. It doesn't work that way bro. You can't just drill a hole in the silicon wafer and take readings.

Had a good laugh with this one.  While we're at it, lets use the microscope and some sunlight  to burn a NEW key onto the games themselves!?!?!
