Cheats, too easy?

[Cyberdemon]

I know that cheats are fun in some games, but sometimes, don't they just take the fun out of stuff? Like when I got the Doom Collection, I played in fun for a while then I couldn't resist the temptation, but to try out some cheats, then before I knew it, everything was too easy, soon I was bored of the games because of cheats, and other games can have the fun sucked out of them also, do you think some cheats take the fun out of the game?

It really depends on

1. The type of game it is

2. How hard the game normally is

3. How well you play games

4. What codes you use

Sometimes, yes... it can take the fun out of it.... but if you're struggling alot in the game and when you use the codes, they help you... You'll be alot happier and enjoy the game more.

Some codes might add extra fun, like cars you wouldn't normally get in a racing game that are superfast or that can do some weird stuff. In FF8, you can use your gameshark to get into a "Debug Room". That allowed you to play whatever song you want and battle any kind of monster. I fought a monster that wasn't normally in the game. I was weird looking (some kind of Japanese mascot). But it froze up the game after that, lol.

Good question

yeah, i have to agree there are some cheats fun using, then other funsuckers, some for fps should be used until the game is beaten, cheats take fun out of most fps as Doom

True, like when using God mode and infinite ammo from the beginning.

It's kinda smart of EA that in James Bond:Everything or Nothing when someone use cheats.... you can't get any medals when playing the missions... after all... you didn't earn it for your "hard" work...

I think everyone should wait until the have beaten the game before using cheats, I have freinds who use cheats to get through the game faster then me, who doesn't use cheats, then they brag about how they beat the game faster. I hate when people do that.

yes, all teh levels on plutonia experiment: Go 2 It on nightmare became so easy with cheats, it wasn't funny, it used to be exetremely hard, I've been away from my computer since July, so when I get doom running back up again, I won't use NO cheats

In my opinion, cheats can definately add replay value. Let's say you've beaten a game(or perhaps, never beaten a game) and grown bored with it. Cheats can definately add some spice to the "relationship". My two cents...

No I Don't Think Cheats Take Out The Fun In Playing Games

[Cyberdemon]

yes, cheats can add spice to games, but at a price, they are good to use when you beat the game and replaying it, but when you first buy the game, and want to use cheats, you can get addicted to it, and you won't really know the difficulty of the game, everything will be too easy

I use cheats but not infinte health that bores me. I say if you need a cheat that lets you be immortal you shouldn't be playing a game of that difficulty.

[SSJKenneth]

I just use cheats only after I've beaten a game. If you use it before you've beaten a game, there's no point in playing, or even buying the game. A game should be played for your enjoyment and to challenge yourself.

cheats are a touchy subject, but I say are meant to be fun and if you've beaten a million times or its just not fun theres no real harm in it, also if you don't use a cheat to get farther in a game its fun as well, like GTA you can spawn a tank and just run around blasting the crap out of everything, then when you want to get back to missions you enter Lower wanted level, then start a mission.

~Stickied~ ... cause it's an awesome topic...

cheats as being invincible make the game very easy, but cheats like infinite money can be very cool though, such as gameshark for FF7, I had 1 million gil in less then 20 minutes,
