It really depends on how I use the cheats, for example some games have "cheats" that just add something really silly to the game (Mini bike in Saints Row 2, and I mean Mini) and some will just make you a god.
So if I use silly cheats in my game then I feel ok, but I won't use god cheats to beat a game.

There was one time where the game literally forced me to. Dragon Age Origins somehow threw me into a random encounter with a massive army of Darkspawn, which was dependant on me finishing story quests to gain help from factions. I had explored the areas, but not finished the quests, so I still got the encounter...so it was essentially an army of highly leveled Darkspawn against 4 low-level guys with no means of replenishing health.
I tried fighting out of it. So many times. I must have sunk about 1.5 hours into that one encounter but I still couldn't win - it was genuinely impossible. Out comes the command console...
I felt guilty, but it had to be done.

No. I cheat all the time in single player games. Sure, it may rob me of a more meaningful experience, but I can't sit through the things I consider to be boring or monotonous and pretend to enjoy it.
I have not and will not cheat in multiplayer games. It spoils the gameplay experience for inumerable people and its unfair.

I rarely ever cheat and no I don't feel guilty about it when I do, I do sometimes feel it cheapens the experience though.
Nope.
Not even when I'm doing it against my friends in Pokemon matches. Granted, the only actual cheating I do is to give them moves they couldn't normally have (Groudon + Sacred Fire = AWESOMENESS), and even then they still have a good chance of beating me!
Cheating at Pokemon concerns me even less when it's against the game itself. Once you get to a certain point in the Battle Frontier challenges, cheating's practically the only way to even have a chance.

naw i beat the game once normaly they pull out debagg mode and just fuck around with stuff like runspeed (I turned into the flash in mohaas for that reason)
Not at all, what she doesn't know, doesn't hurt her.
...
ooh, cheat in video games.
I guess not.

Yes, I do feel guilty, but only if I don't finish the game first.
The only type of game I allow myself to cheat on is the sandbox game.

Not really, I cheat sometimes in multiplayer games just because they get boring quick. Like glitching on COD or using an aimbot on Garry's Mod that headshots everyone around you in under a second. In single player, not really also.
