What was the first game you used cheats on?

[Hollock]

either Goldeneye, or Sonic 2

 

[Dark Knifer]

I believe it was age of empires one. I got it from a nutri-grain packet and a friend showed me how to get cars that fire missiles and move really fast. I enjoyed that quite a lot....

 

[Skutch]

Contra on the NES.

 

[Evilsanta]

Hmmm...I think the first game was GTA 2. It was a code that gave you all weapons.I was like 8 at the time and GTA games meant screwing around.

Though i can't remember it the code.

Up up up left down down down left up up up left right
up down left down left down down down left right

who remembers these?
one hint it was on the ps2 and was freaking awsome!
also i was a little kid and had no reflexes at the time so i had a legitimate reason!

 

[AK47Marine]

Erm either Golden Eye or Civ3

The good ol'game shark for the former, and the magic ability to spawn warships in the enemy capital for the other.

 

[audiblemirage]

Contra for the NES, I believe. Up up down down left right left right B A select start, if I remember correctly, could be wrong though. Damn I feel old.

It was GTA 3. I never used any cheat codes before that, because my mum said "Using cheats ruin the game, and if you use them, then I won't get you any more." when I was like 6.

GTA 3 almost seemed made for you to use the cheats though.

All weapons, water cars, infinite health and ammo & $1000000 = a lot of mindless fun. Especially with the RPG.

 

[Kiltguy]

Metroid, Nintendo 8-bit.

P.S. that was before the internet. D.S.

 

[MrAkuma201]

When I was little it was Bloodryane on the PS2 the cheats I use where was God mode and Juggy mode. As a kid I was kind of a pervert

 

[Ilikemilkshake]

From trainers, to aim bots, to god-mode, what game did you first decide to get an 'extra' advantage with?

I think for me it was Civ2. Struggling way back in the day to actually beat those 'oh so good' AI's (Hey, I was young!), there was always that final release, where you turned cheat mode on, and plunked down a huge stack of tanks next to the enemy capital.

How about you?

back when i was about 7-8 and didnt actually know how to play civ 2 i used to cheat aswell, i used to turn cheat mode on, then use the cheats i wanted like dropping a bunch of tanks, and then i'd use the cheat that lets you save the game as a scenario, and then i'd start playing and save over from that scenario, so my score at the end wouldnt say 'CHEAT'

My childhood will never ever allow me to forget

granted I was playing the censored version...

 

[catalyst8]

I remember entering the cheat code for infinite lives on Jet Set Willy on the ZX Spectrum. It didn't really make any difference to winning the game, since you'd inevitably trigger an infinite death loop.

 

[F'Angus]

DOOM 2 To get all the guns and god mode

 

[peter-lavalle]

Every PC one at some point. I usually play them without cheats and then will dick around with them when I get bored

 

[VaudevillianVeteran]

Either on The Sims 2 with the trusty BoolProp or Motherload cheats or Saints Row after completing it, Evil Cars, Milkbones, etc.

 

[Shaegor]

Doom 2, god mode...
I still remember it after all these years, iddqd.

 

[Poopster]

Contra! the famous 30 lives cheat!

 

[Redingold]

GTA III, I think. SO MANY ROCKETS!

 

[Blue Musician]

I used every cheat on Age of Mythology.
