Hmmm... small idea...

The two ideas floating around for multiplayer hosting are having one xbox host, and having dedicated servers.

Heres an idea to play with: How about shared hosts (or something simular).

Basically all the xboxes share the multiplayer data of the game... where people are shooting... where they're moving, and so on. This can help in the cheating aspect of the game, as we all know modding is eventually going to happen, if lets say:

Theres 8 people in a game. 1 person is cheating/using mods, all of the 7 other xboxes disconnect from the cheater for sending inconsistant data. So the cheater is kicked out and the 7 people continue to play.

Theres obviously a lot of technicalities, but it goes upon the "majority rules" basis assuming that only one or two people could be cheating.
