ATM Hacked To Give You Doom Instead of Money

[ShaunB-91]

I just came across this interesting story, Australian hackers have found a way of getting the original Doom game from ID Software to run on ATM machines using the buttons at the side of the screen they were able to run the game.

This isn't really a malicious attack as ATM's usually run Windows XP. MS-DOS was required as well as emulation software to enable the controls to be switched from a keybaord to the ATM's controls.

Check out the video below of the game running.
