Cheating Confessions...

[garfield hates mondays]

Ever use cheat codes or a walkthrough to beat a game? Confess it here.

I used cheats in the last couple of levels in Halflife because it was getting so hard I wasnt enjoying the game anymore. I also used the strategy guide for Myst.

[Ragen]

I've used cheatcodes to open stuff up on like GoldenEye

I also found cheatcodes for my friend to use as he played GTA:III

[garfield hates mondays]

do you feel better now, Ragen?

[Ragen]

yes, *whew*
I'm glad I got that off my chest

oh, I've used walkthroughs before too..but not for games I'd readily fess up to...lol

[garfield hates mondays]

You know, I dont see how anybody could even START myst on their own. The game is impossible!!!

[Hayzen]

I'm a little bit of a completest, and the types of games I play usually take 60+ hours to finish, so I will consult a walkthrough every once and a while just to see if I've missed anything. I've never used one to spoil the entire game though. That would take the point out of playing.

[masterthes]

Plenty of times, and I'm not ashamed to admit it. I'm a cheater, so sue me

[Josh]

Sure, in single player. I play a game and if I get stuck and get bored with it, its cheat code time. When you stop having fun with the game, cheat away.

The only time its wrong is in multiplayer. Grrr.

still got it

I agree with you, hobbit. When a game starts to become more irritating than entertaining...it's cheat time.

[Into]

When you stop having fun with the game, cheat away.

Yep, that's my philosophy. I'm not much of a gamer, so I do cheat a lot.

[masterthes]

Hah! I remember that one too Bordick. Wasn't that for infinite lives or something?

[Brian]

Walkthroughs for FF7 and Jedi Knight 2. Cheats for Enter the Matrix and once or twice in StarCraft.

[Christine]

I used cheat codes on Wolfenstein and Doom... on Doom there were a few secrets you could only access with cheat codes though, hehe

I played Duke Nukem 3D for ages when I was 15. In that period of time, I started experimenting with hallucinogens. I tried acid for the first time at school, and when I got home, I did what I normally did after my school day was over: park my ass in front of the computer to Duke it out. Somehow I was capable of enabling God mode and the weapons cheat, but I ****ed up trying to pick the level of difficulty. I picked the one where the monsters come back to life. I couldn't comprehend why the monsters wouldn't stay dead and I kept shouting at the screen, "I thought I killed you bastards! WHAT THE ****?" Heh. Stupid cheat story.

Sometimes a game is just too hard for me to learn, so I pick up a cheat or a walkthrough just to learn the game, and then I start it over clean. Then again, I have a tendency to give up on things I'm not automatically good at because I get pissed off. Hurray for tetris64!

I have no patience for being stuck..first sign of trouble and i'm looking up the cheats. I remember playing some D&D game years and years ago and using the book to go through most of it..I didn't want puzzles, i wanted to kill stuff damnit! I am better than that now..i at least will try something before going to the cheat. Either way..i still have fun playing.
