L4D Xbox 360 Hacks Fixed - 12/10/08

Some Xbox modders found a way to use console commands on the Xbox 360 version of Left 4 Dead, allowing them to do everything PC users can (sv_cheats 1), causing some headaches for people just wanting to play a normal game. Doug Lombardi sent out the following message:

Valve has released a server-side fix to deny the recently reported cheats on all dedicated Left 4 Dead Xbox 360 servers. The fix is designed to halt the cheating behavior on the dedicated servers, which accounts for the majority of the co-op and Versus modes of play. A title update for those playing on user-hosted servers and/or via system link will be released in the coming days.

You can see a video showing off some of the cheats below:

Good news for Xbox players.
