"I think games will have to evolve to being "perfect information", just let all players see behind walls."
Just don't send the data to the game client until the last moment. Currently the game server is literally telling your computer where the enemy is located behind the walls. Wallhacks can be made to be impossible with enough development effort.
Wall hacks are another common hack; getting information that the game client has but that you aren't supposed to know. I think games will have to evolve to being "perfect information", just let all players see behind walls.
All in all, I don't see cheating as ruining gaming as a whole. Game designers will design games that are more difficult to cheat at, and hopefully there will be less cheaters ruining your matches. I would definitely play the can-see-behind-walls-and-aim-doesn't-matter FPS!
