Seems the PlayStation 3 version of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare has been rendered nearly unplayable, thanks to exploits that grant cheaters game-wrecking bonuses like infinite ammo, plus the ability to fly and walk through walls. The good news?

Infinity Ward appears to already be on top of quelling that nonsense, as the team's director of communications and community manager Robert Bowling writes on his Twitter, "A patch is in the works for PS3 and Xbox 360 to address the recent COD4 exploits. I'll keep you posted on the progress."

Thank official Call of Duty 4 forum moderators for bubbling up the issue, something that Infinity Ward is looking to quickly address. Ah well, it was the complete opposite of fun while it lasted!
