Your Goofiest, Zaniest, Funkiest, Most Bizarre Cheat Codes

[Yousef Yousef]

Y’know what? I’m actually really curious. What’s your favorite cheat code(s)? Like in general? Any cheat codes you find really fun?

What some really weird and funky cheat codes you know? TELL ME.

The jetpack cheat in GTASA. Los Santos is very different when seen from above and getting to the roofs of buildings you normally wouldn't even bother to check out is strangely fun. For my least favorite would be the one that maxes out the driving skill, makes cars undrivable because they inmediately flip over if you turn even a little bit

The "Guys Follow You" one on Vice City Stories is great when combined with the "People Have Guns" and "People Riot" ones. I have tons of human shields XD

Not a Cheat Code, but I totally enjoyed replaying DMC3 on PCSX2 with "Slow Motion" mode and reloading savestates every now and then, finally I managed to achive my child dream and get SS on all easy and normal stages. Still can't belive that any human being can pull of real SS ranks on some stages without cheating.

I tend to like cheats that allow you to either boundary or sequence break and cause all kinds of unintended behaviors. A classic example that comes to mind is the debug mode from Sonic 2; back then, local magazines called it "The 1000 faces of Sonic" trick, and that's what I knew it by, growing up.

Low gravity as well as the giant, itty bitty and ragdoll cheat codes in Saints Row 2

I knew a cheatcode that could turn a blue hedgehog into a super sayan.


Or into a ring.

Not sure this counts specifically but I remember from the long long ago that, using all zeroes in the save code function in the NES game Rambo absolutely breaks the game. It has always stuck out in my mind because of how funny and fun it was to try things with. Mind you I was a young kid and haven't tried it recently but it sure was enjoyable then.

And Impulse 101 in Half-Life 1 and 2 (and extensions) in the introductory chapter because of the fun with destroying them all.

Anything related to Big Head mode in any early 3D game.

Goldeneye was notorious for ridiculous situations

On the SNES version of Earthworm Jim 1 and 2 (the latter being only avaliable on the european version) pausing and putting YABBAYAB will trigger this

In Earthworm Jim 2 this gave you advices.

Is that the "nuke" command for Linux?

Sonic 3's cheat menu was hell to have access to.

Yeah XD

 

[ThatOneLum]

PS1/PS2-era Tony Hawk games have the best cheats.

Giant head mode. Play as Spider-Man. Spray blood everywhere. Moon gravity.

Unbeatable stuff.

 

[Ikagura]

Yeah XD

So yeah, like deleting System32.

Giant head mode. Play as Spider-Man. Spray blood everywhere. Moon gravity.

I miss Big Head/DK Mode in older 3D games...
