Coming from a primarily console gamer, there are more hackers on Xbox than on PC games usually. Trying to get a decent game on CoD 4 these days is a fucking nightmare.Originally Posted by Nero

there are wallhacks and aimbots on xbox cod, right? because i see shit happen in that game thats just incredible, and i dont ever seem to be able to pull any of it off. follow me through a wall with an mp5? ok.
There are hacks for MW2 that reset your rank to 1. And that's just for shooting somebody...in a game where you're supposed to shoot people
Hell there are even ad-bots on CoD 4 now that advertise where some douche got his wallhack or whatever :|
I have never had a really bad experience on BC2 with hackers. One guy was obviously hacking once and he got banned pretty fast (after I killed him like 3 times).
trust me it can be worse on consoles. Sony/MS don't do their "sweeps for modded consoles" often enough and even those can be defeated with the right measures. I personally know someone who's been able to play on xbl for years with a modded console running bootleg games. He doesn't cheat, but he has the ability to and no one can do anything about it.
Good PC servers always have admins to take care of hackers, in addition to idiots trolling the voice/text chat. Heck in a really serious game you can often see people getting kicked just for playing like an ass (i.e. jumping into the helicopter and crashing it 5 seconds after takeoff). I have encountered hackers before, but they get banned very quickly. A lot more quickly than a console hacker.

I think Activision/IW just openly invited DICE to pwn them outright. BF3 = $50 full price, 64 player dedicated servers, free DLC to make up for lack of mods, and guaranteed god-awesome discounts several months after release. MW3 = 18 player laggy player-hosted servers, paid DLC, and $60 full price without any kind of "limited edition bonuses".
e: just realized Limited Edition says "back to karkand for free". Ok, I'm a bit skeptical now about the DLC part but either way it's a better deal than MW3

In all my hours on BC2 Ive only come across 1 noticeable hacker. I was a small rush map so he just stood in the trees outside the base and instantly head shot everyone who spawned with the Saw. He was banned rather quickly, after that I haven't seen any.
At this point I'm about ready to buy BF3 just to stick it to Activision.
Yeah -- like I've always said: I've experience MUCH LESS cheating on the PC... and astronomically less griefing.
Because I play on dedicated servers with admins.
Problem solved.
Anyone know when the Steam preorder comes out? I always favor Steam for PC gaming unless I absolutely have no choice (i.e. starcraft 2).
