Thread: To cheat or not to cheat, now thats the question!

I was just wondering seen as i have come accross my fair share of cheaters online. So i was wondering your take on the matter. Also what is cheating in your opinion?
Are walkthroughs cheating?
Is camping cheating?
Is get all weapons(gta)cheating?
Or is cheating just anything that stops you from dying, or gives you a unfair advantage?

I think anything that gives you an unfair advantage against other users is cheating (assuming you are not just a better player), unless it is for an example an item you found/won/bought that is supposed to be in the game.

Walkthroughs I don't consider cheating, but I recommend only using them if you are really stuck or on a second playthrough as they often ruin the story and give away plot twists.

The only way I see camping as cheating is if you are doing so with a playboy playmate while your wife is at home. LOL!

I dont cheat ever. I only use walkthroughs when Im stuck.

I just use game cheats to get to areas that were not meant to be regularly accessed like the top of buildings or spaces with easter eggs in them.
or to make the game playable by avoiding a bug.

pmsl, good point with the bunny!

hell yes I use cheats:thefinger:
but only after i have beaten the crap out a game or it just sucks to play and I just want to know what happens story wise:eviltongue:
otherwise if i don't like the game play or story i give the game to a friend:D

Cheating is pointless... people who cheat in games also cheat themselves out of the fun of the challenge of beating it (which is really the whole point of playing). People who cheat online are just selfish scumbags ruining the fun of the game for everybody else as well. I personally either beat a game legitimately or skip it altogether for the next game.

I cheat in games that have built-in cheat codes such as the older GTA games. (Not sure if GTA4 has cheat codes) I use to use codebreaker for my PS1 games when I played them to death and wanted to squeeze out more fun in them. That's about it..

I agree with the online cheaters = selfish scumbag ideal.
