Activision got to this already.

^ yep, that was it.

Moving this video to demon_ix's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

can someone point out some of the hacks and the times of them

Throughout the video, when you see little red and blue boxes on the screen, those indicate the position of other players, even through walls and on the UAV screen, where you don't normally see indicators for other players. That's called a Wallhack, basically letting you see all the other players through walls, so no one can really surprise you, and you can kill them easily by shooting through bullet-vulnerable walls.

He's also supposedly using an Aimbot, which is a hack that at the click of a button moves your target towards the enemy's head, allowing you to get headshots without any skill at all. This one is harder to see or prove, however, since there are players good enough that are able to achieve very fast headshot aiming without hacks.

No one will see it here, but it's the only appropriate place for this. The Modern Warfare 2 console has been hacked, and some have already created dedicated servers to run the game:

So that's what a wallhack looks like.

I always stick to the same 2 or 3 servers for COD4, all with strict Punkbuster and immediate IP ban for cheaters, so I never really saw what it looked like. It's so maddening! AAARRGGGHHH!

Great sift. Maybe I'll pick it up in a month when some of the kinks have been ironed out.

After actually playing the game, I need to correct myself. The red boxes do appear in the UAV bombardment screen, so that's not part of the hack.

It's possible that that at least some of those boxes on the Predator screen are part of the hack, as some of those guys may have had the Cold Blood perk on which would make them not have those boxes normally. No way to tell though with this vid. I've of course heard of these things before but I've never actually seen one from this side of the screen. I have of course run into a few of these morons though. Always wondered what it looked like though. Personally I could *kind of* see why one would want the wall hack part, since even with a wall hack, against a decent team your still going to get your ass handed to you, but the aimbot is just pure dumb. Whats the point of even playing at that point? The wall hack makes it to easy and the aimbot takes it even x10 farther. OR you could go the route of some I've seen and even just use a Rank Hack to make yourself instant Prestige x10 lvl 70 and tada! you win? I have no idea.

Yeah.. no admin tools, hackers paradise!

You're not really meant to be carrying around 50 caliber sniper rifles and using them as from-the-hip assault rifles, and those weapons don't perform that way. Toward the end for sure, he's using various snipers and their rate of fire is obviously enhanced. Look for the distinctive hammerhead at the front of the barrel and the folded up bipod, you can see it pretty easily. You can also tell from the exaggerated recoil of each shot. To the victims watching their killcam, this would have been maddeningly obvious.

This kind of bullshit totally turns me off on a game that I'd otherwise have been interested in. It's hard enough to compete the with twitchy 12-year-old kill-machines, but add the possibility that some are straight-up cheating, and you can forget it. I'll stick to my nerd-MMOs.
