Are you asking about a "cheat" or an actual hack?

I don't know if such a cheat exists, but should be easy to find on the internet.
Any hack is possible.

The question is somewhat ambiguous. Are you asking "Is it certain that there currently exists an automated program/software/method/manner/glitch to wall hack in Call of Duty games on the PS3", or "Is it possible to prove that there could be someone using a (wall hack for COD on PS3)?" ?

From a purely theoretical standpoint, yes, it's entirely possible. Within the realm of technical possibility, a talented hacker could create his own smart interface posing as a PS3 and either remotely mine data on all information desired from the server (including player coordinates), or hijack packets to and from all clients simultaneously to obtain some data (possibly including player coordinates). However, these two approaches are highly impractical and very complex to implement. No generic implementation of either is known to have been created yet, to my knowledge, so any implementation would be specific to one particular game, possibly even further restricted by version, gametype, etc.

From a more grounded standpoint, more practical applications of the "wall hack" would usually rely on one of two things (and in some rare cases, both): All relevant vectors and coordinates being transmitted to all clients by the server at all times (which is bad practice), which then means any third-party with proper memory access and enough information about the game's memory structure can disclose the "hidden" coordinates of players you're not supposed to see, or using network communication exploits such as temporary location jumps to make the server believe it should legitimately transmit the information about other players' coordinates, even when it shouldn't.

This should answer the latter of the above two questions. I'll leave the question of whether someone is currenly using one up to another expert with more knowledge of the PSN and of the PS3 FPS gaming community.

Hey thanks guys for all your answers.  With regards to my question,  wallhack are already existing on PC Games, actually I know a paid wallhacks for first person shooter.

But anyone knows where to get a wall hack on PS3?  I heard, you need to modify your PS3 or upload some kind of a file... but still a rumor..

Anyone has tried this? Can you share?
