do you cheat in video games?

[Hani]

Yes, only of i want to finish it quickly.

Examples:

Tomb Raider Underworld (way to frustrating for me, too many puzzles.)

Doom 3 Resurrection (played it after I finished Doom 3, extremely repetitive)

I use it to have fun, but a few times if I'm really stuck and nothing but dying seems to be the option I've cheated to mvoe on. No Biggy.

in games like The Sims and Sim City and I use the money cheat.

Me too :p It's really tough to collect money in these mentioned games.

[KiHu]

Usually finish the game once or twice before I start cheating :)

[KyleGM]

I used to only buy games if I had cheats for them O.o But that's when I was like 10, now I enjoy playing them on the hardest settings, I think I'm making up for lost time :p

[Rappy Veteran]

I did once in Deus Ex, I just kept spawning guns :rofl: and then in a star wars game...kept spawning luke skywalker had like 100 skywalkers :rofl:

[Coldgunner]

I tend to use cheats once I get bored.

[The_Wizard]

I only really use cheats for fun, and occasionally during a normal game, but only if I'm really stuck.

[cabron]

I use it all the time, mostly in difficult games.

When I was young, I loved cheating on things like the Sonic games (Super-Sonic cheat ftw!), but nowadays I will complete it legitimately before I cheat. Usually with GTA games I'll complete it legitimately through the story, then spawn guns and cars and stuff as I need them to complete side missions to get 100%.

[Konstanov]

I used the paintball cheat in Goldeneye.

What I usually do is play through a game first without cheats, then replay it with cheats. But only with single player games, never online or with multiplayer. The best game to do this with is Grand Theft Auto. Having cheats activated like unlimited health or weapons, ability to spawn whatever car you want really add to the gameplay a 2nd go around.

[medium_pimpin]

yep

[bob21]

Ever since Deus Ex i start with all Augs/Best Weapons etc .Makes the game more enjoyable and easier to unlock events in RPG's

[Sandor]

[Crompee]

I cheated back in the days when I played Doom and Quake single player.. but once it gets to multiplayer, then no - what's the freakin point. If you're bad, practice!!

[darthblader]

I used to cheat in the GTA games, but for the same reason as a few other people have mentioned.....fun after the main story is completed.

The only other game I use codes in is Oblivion but that is because the game sometimes glitches and you have to use codes to get the mission to continue on or w/e but the game sees this as a cheat :(

yeah cheating on multiplayer is a bit wrong :no:

[rednekcowboy]

I would never cheat in multiplayer.

However, being a father and having a full time job and a loving wife :no: I use cheats to get through a storyline sometimes now that I don't have the time I used to dedicate to games.

That being said, what's the best place for some Xbox 360 cheats??

[M.F.D.K]

I hate repetitive games such as Far Cry 2, I found me self using cheats quite often.

[iamwhoiam]

For single player modes, I've been known to use a trainer or two. For online play, never.

[Athernar]

Not on a first playthrough.

After that however I'll usually mess around in the console to see what the engine is capable of, spawn millions of NPCs and etc.
