"i hate faulty cheats"

faulty cheats stink and thats it.
i hate it when you get cheats of the internet and they donet work.
if you agree why not post your opinion

it dont work

I'll try that one out!!

expect a post on this subject very soon.

Also I remember in the old days SR told me hold A for 20 seconds in Goldeneye and get a bazooka.. eerie silence :)

I downloaded a Cossacks demo from SR and I use the cheat MONEY freqently cos the game will last only 5 mins otherwise!

I guess your right, but when you use a big cheat which lets you make buildings in 1/2 the time with unlimited money or health, you complete a few levels and get bored, so you go back to where you betrayed yourself and start without cheats but you know what to expect in the levels to come and it once again becomes boring, but this time your not killing off the enemy like a fly fighting a machine gun, but it's even!
plus your right about the easy setting stuff, I usually start on the easy setting so i can find out about the level and get used to the controls, I gradually progress, i don't jump straight into the expert settings as it's too much of a shock at first, plus as the setting suggests is considrably harder than the easiest mode.

I know what your saying... and I do agree...

However... With PC titles... sometimes I'll pick up a game... play it for a couple of weeks and either get bored... or move onto something else...

With PC stuff... I kow that once I uninstall the game I'll never re-install it again.. it'll just get stuck in a drawer somewhere and forgotten about...

So I'll nab a cheat to make the game interesting... and allow me to complete it quickly (within an afternoon) ... Its not as fun as beating the challenege (but its kinda mindless entertainment, which I'm not losing out on)...

Also... Ive noticed that a lot of cheats in the UKCheats section arnt cheats at all... but are Ester Eggs... novelities... hidden messages... entertaining options (turn your character into the easter bunny, etc...)

Stuff thats kinda fun to play around with... and once your done you are able to return to the game proper...

However... I do agree... To the point that I feel like I'm cheating if I buy a game and play it on the EASY setting...

If your not after a challenege... maybe a movie would be more fun?

I don't use them that much. I used them once on Zelda but that was after I had completed it once on one file and done everything without cheats and I mean absoluetely everything and then on the second file I played through the basic game but then couldn't be bothered to do all of the mini quest and collect all those one use items all over again!

a thought just popped into my head, why do you use cheats? they destory the whole point of paying £30+ for a game and trying to complete it, I understand that sometimes it's almost impossible to complete the game, but theres always a way, it just needs a bit of patience. The worst time in Goldeneye's life was when I had just won invincibility on GE 007, and I found out that there was to get them unofficialy! I hated it, but was happy that I was the only one of my friends that had won it the correct way, a sense of joy rushes through my blood after spending mindless hours playing a game then finaly completing it.

I'll tell you its Grix THraves I think cos he's won about nine times!

I gave up putting cheats on ukcheats.co.uk because they're never put up! I remeber my favourite cheat was flying Bond, follow these moves:

select Tiny Bond from your cheat menu on Goldeneye 007, and then pick any level with stairs, go to the top of the stairs and crouch down (R + down C) then run towards the top of the stairs and press (Down C) to take off, you shoot all the bad guys from above, they can still see and shoot you but it makes a change. You can stay up as long as you want except if you go off the stairs or press the R button.
