Weekend Open Forum: Most memorable gaming cheat codes

Secret Area in Donkey Kong Country: Down Down Y Down Down Y at the title screen.

It is not really a cheat code, but one of the worlds in Super Mario Brothers gave you virtually unlimited 1up's if you caught the turtle coming down the stairs at the right moment.

No one mentioned /god

There is no cow level

Oh where to begin, lol. I used to use cheat codes on whatever game I could. I never really cared about the games, just found it fun to run around with unlimited amo and all that other good stuff.

But then I got married and my wife would actually get upset that I was using cheat codes. Never was sure why it bothered her sop much, but like the saying goes..."if mama aint happy, nobody's happy." So I started actually playing fair...and hated it, lol.

CTRL + ALT + ~ the most important key to unlocking it all!

OFF:
Cheating is ok if you're doin it for fun, not for progression to higher levels, or to win a multiplayer game.

The face of cheating was changed when "bot" type programs appeared, they we're and still are the highest on my despise list.

Though I remember in the days of MSN Gaming Zone in a Age of Empires I game, in the lobby I forgot to look if the cheats we're enabled, and I got rushed not by troops, but by cars.

I'm quite a 'old school' gamer(first Playstation etc) but I don't think I've ever seen that so you must be talking about pacman old school or even before that hahaha =/

The cheat codes I remember the most are ones on Duke Nukem Time to Kill, Apocalypse(Bruce Willis did the voice acting) and Grand Theft Auto games.

Duke Nukem had things like infinite ammo and infinite health so you could just charge through it and I still enjoyed it, good story, music and feel... "Mmm Bacon bits" haha =P

Apocalypse was the same but even though I had infinite health, ammo and lives you could still die because of the way the levels were designed for example you could fall to your death in some of the levels or you could fall into magma =/

And Grand Theft Auto(San Andreas mostly) had the great spawning cheats like to spawn a Rhino(tank) or a Hydra(harrier jump jet) weapon cheats and making your character fat or muscle y,

And being honest I'm the only one out of my friends that completed San Andreas to about 90%+ without using cheats(almost had all the tags =D).
