Well, apparently someone waltzed into Valve Software's computers, and waltzed out with the source code to Half-Life 2. The code and compiled binaries are all over the net, and soon script kiddies will be able to cheat at multi-player before the game is on the shelf.

I've always wondered what the point of cheating in online shooters is. Isn't that the same as stating up front, "I suck so badly that I don't have a prayer of beating anyone"?

I've sometimes used cheat codes in the single-player missions of some shooters, but I know I suck. :)
