[Q] FFX- 2 Looping issue
#11
cheating = avoiding the games mechanics to make the game "easier" aka, not playing the game for how it's intended to be played. This is usually done by people who either really suck at games, or are glory hunters who just want to go "omfg i completed the game! how awesome am i!"

cheats take away the challenge, which imo completely ruins any game. Then again, i come from an era where you didn't get wrapped in bubble wrap in games, they were hard and if you died, that was it, you started again, now there was a challenge!

I couldn't agree more to that^

Though I was pointing some specific occasions of cheats like:

1. Making a game easier for a very young child to give him the joy of being rewarded.
2. Using cheats to go through a game fast only to record the cutscenes.
3. Remember the bug in PCSX2 in KH1 in the disney boss battle? You need to use cheats to get rid of PCSX2's bug with that boss so it's one of those rare occasions PCSX2 is super depended on a cheat.
4. Without cheats, some very awesome stuff like hacked boss battles ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmhVo4ftOjU ) playing as a non playable character ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZBl0DGNxZg ) or using removed stuff for the game as the rocket launcher in Tomb Raider Legend ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1UDBNui70E ) wouldn't have been possible which is sad.

I like to categorize cheats. Some of them extended the interest in most of my games nearly to double and some of them even pulled me in a game, especially the ones that have tons of unused material in the games. I know I'm a psycho! XD

@VIRGIN KLM

Are you talking about Chernabog, the evil demon in KH1?

I consider these, especially number 4 to be hacks rather than cheats.
