Left 4 Dead Hacked on Xbox 360, Bans Incoming

I’m saying this before anything else: if you try this, you will get your Xbox 360, Live Account, and possibly your IP banned from Live. Write that down. Now, with that out of the way, some enterprising hackers have figured out a way to put a save file on your Xbox 360 to give all kinds of goodies in Left 4 Dead.

While some of this stuff is cool, there have been reports of people using the infinite health and ammo cheats online, making the experience pretty crappy. I have a strong feeling that MS and Valve are looking heavily into this and bans will be coming sooner than later.

Valve issued a press release this afternoon stating that they’ve made a server-side fix to prevent users from using this cheat tool online. They’ve fixed all the dedicated servers, but people who are connecting user-to-user will be affected until a game patch is released in the next couple days. Hang in there.

  1. EHT

    Valve have always been the wielder of the ban hammer so I’m not surprise if they get all the cheats and stuff out in no time. There are some cool hacks though.

  2. I was on my way to purchase this finally instead of borrowing it but now, with the multi-player being the key reason of buying it and that’s compromised it’s a no go for me. EA ain’t getting my money now.
