i don't use codes or "cheats" i used to, but that was when i was younger... i do use game guides from time to time, but only if i am really stuck somewhere or i don't know what i am doing in the game...

I don't cheat until I've beaten a game. In online games I never cheat.

And the cheats are only for fun, like blowing up those little dudes in Halo with a rocket launcher and stuff, not for actual gameplay.

I can honestly say I've never used a cheat in any game that I play online.

However for single player games, once they get boring I do use the odd cheat to mess around to try get back into it.

My son, acting in my best interests gave me his copy of quake 3 arena, I am playing all night long, and still have not left Tier one, my son says "dad, you have to have the cheats" and proceeds to show me the important ones, as well as cheats for half life, and other games, he has a mind like a steel trap for this, however, he cannot maintain a C average in school, and his mind is cluttered with references to games, womens breasts, and finding unique solutions to his problems, go figure. I have not tried any cheats as of yet, I am just learning how to get my ass kicked over and over again...lol.

I will sometimes try the cheats out , but only after I beat the game without the cheats. Sometimes cheats can add a different element to a game and alow you to explore other options that you cant without them.

What's the point of playing a game in a way that it wasn't intended? That's what cheats do, just ruin the game if you haven't played it through once. My opinion anyway.

Online:

cheating is for loosers. if you cheat online, go kill yourself, because your life is useless (sorry if that was a bit harsh). Ive worked hard to make a name for myself in many games...being the best i can. it distresses me when people i have played with for a long time and trusted get busted for hacks. makes you realize you can trust nobody

Singleplayer:

i dont unless ive beat it. but whatever floats your boat

People who cheat in ON-LINE games are low life scum sucking pussies -they ruin the fun for everyone.
No, I never have, wouldn't even know where to look.

nooooo, bots are common here, that extreme place is full of kids burning and cheating and downloading and getting their asses kicked in games...its right down the street from my ex wifes place, these stinkers are the next generation, and I dont think they will waste time with an old fart like me.
