That's entirely my point. What he's described are exploits, things that aren't meant to be in the game, but were found and, well, exploited. 'Cheats,' ie. cheat codes, are legitimate as they are actually built into the game and, for the most part, only used in single player.SonicSoulstrike96 said:using cheats that they put in game for you to use isn't really cheating.
Whoops, so you mean this is more about Acievement cracks than actual cheating? Geez, the OP coulda made that clearer...D_987 said:You people do realize their talking about ACHIEVEMENT cheats here - not in-game exploit cheats, right?
Nope, never have.Lord_Panzer said:Woah there, Mr. Opinion Pants, hold the phone. You telling me you've never opened the console in a game before? You've never no-cliped to see an area you otherwise couldn't? Never God-Moded just for the sheer fun of mowing down baddies knowing they're powerless to stop you? Never turned fog-of-war off to see if that cheating know-it-all computer player had a forward base somewhere?Malygris said:On the other hand, cheating in videogames is lame and you shouldn't be doing it, so on the whole this sounds like a pretty good idea to me.
If so, I've gotta say I'm impressed. I think you're silly for not using something they've actually put in the game at some point (often times for comedic effect), but I'm still impressed.
That was quite a thorough burn, no? Care to give him some water?Lord_Panzer said:Woah there, Mr. Opinion Pants, hold the phone. You telling me you've never opened the console in a game before?

Excuse my ignorance here, but what are achievement cheats?Do you like, enter a code and get all the Gamerpoints for the Game?D_987 said:You people do realize their talking about ACHIEVEMENT cheats here - not in-game exploit cheats, right?
Its to do with modding your console - hacking into it and then downloading the achievment files off the Internet - their are whole Internet communities dedicated to this sort of thing...Wayne Insane said:Excuse my ignorance here, but what are achievement cheats?Do you like, enter a code and get all the Gamerpoints for the Game?D_987 said:You people do realize their talking about ACHIEVEMENT cheats here - not in-game exploit cheats, right?
I thought they would punish people who found a way to play in Godmode in multiplayer or something...
Agreed. Cheating in singleplayer is either for exploration into the guts of the game, or just to relieve a bit of boredom in the game. Cheating in multiplayer is disgusting and frankly antisocial. If it is really that important to you to win a multiplayer game by cheating, then you need to get out of the house more, and maybe some help.fearofthemind said:As long as they don't to this to people who use cheat codes on singleplayer games, then I'm with this.
First, it's MS, not Mdollarsign. Just because Gates was intelligent doesn't mean they need to be hated.Gamer137 said:Problem is, what if people are cheating on private games and M$ detects it? Cheating in a private game should be perfectly acceptable.
