Where Have All the Cheats Gone?

[demoman_chaos]

I do miss cheats. Countless hours of shenanigans in GTA due to the amusing codes. I remember turning on pedestrians riot, pedestrians have guns, and increased gore on GTA3 and relishing in the chaos. Limbs flying everywhere from explosions, gunfire drowning out the screams of pain, and the once black streets not red with blood.

Anyone else remember the "What If" code in the PS1 Spiderman game that changed a LOT of the game (like adding a yellow submarine in one level that races you)?

It's easier to walk through a game with a carrot at the end of the stick than because the journey is fun.

I'm not sure about the causation between Achievements and cheats disappearing but one thing this dose make me think of is how apparently it's ok to use the contra code, but don't use those save states in an emulator, That's just bad form.

In light of this artical that atitude seems a bit hypocritical to me.
