Cheat Codes Up the Value of Your Games
Want more for your money? Cheat. When it comes to video games, there is no shame in taking advantage of the built in features and unlockables installed by game manufacturers. Although some purists stuck in the Dark Ages turn up their noses at using cheats, video game cheats exist for lots of good reasons and are meant to be accessed.
Rare is the game that does not have cheats programmed into it. Cheats were used by game makers to speed up the play-testing phase prior to the game’s release. When manufacturers neglected to remove the cheats from the released games, players soon took full advantage. Whereas you had to be a genius to be able to cheat on the old computer games, modern games are programmed with them in mind. Cheats have become prerequisites for modern gamers.
Cheat codes are good for several reasons. Gamers love them because they’re time savers. With cheats, you can skip levels that are too impossible or which you have already mastered. Since cheats allow you to change lots of aspects of the game and find hidden things, they make game replay way more cool. Some cheats can make a game unpredictable or more challenging; some are just funny, like big head mode or rioting pedestrians. Some let you storm your way through the world of a game completely invincible in God mode; meanwhile “minime” makes your character so tiny that it cannot be hit in close combat.
It doesn’t take a genius to see how cheats enhance game-play and add value. Cheats aren’t a cop-out, in fact, they make a game more open-ended and creative. So let the stick-in-the-muds stay stuck on level nine for the rest of their natural lives. Everyone else can punch in the cheat and get moving!
It’s never been simpler to get to the highest levels of a game. Often, all you need is that little something that get you past hordes of zombies or thousands of invading troops. Indeed, effective cheats are ones that help, not overshadow. Of course, it is fun to mow down the zombie hordes, level after level with unlimited ammunition, but often that gets real old, real fast. Using cheats sparingly is a real art.
