Realism, an excellent plot, stunning graphics – these are what many believe to be the hallmarks of a great video game. Or at least, that’s the prevalent theory that has been lingering around since the 32-bit era. Video games have evolved from the sprites and quirks of the older generations, to the point where they’re starting to resemble reality more and more. However, success doesn’t always hin
During our countless hours of playing RTS and war games, we’ve encountered dozens of armchair tacticians complaining about how today’s strategy games are getting ” too damn hard”.
Hard you say? Warfare? That’s… mind blowing.
Never mind the fact that you roll into enemy territory, unpack a base, and start building. That there are no supply and logistics route to worry about, or po
Back when Star Wars: Attack of the Clones hit theaters, there was a fantastic spacefight that will forever be glued to my mind.
It involved Obi Wan Kenobi and that Mexican-sounding mercenary, Jango Fett. Despite his high-powered laser cannons, Fett toyed around with the spaceflight-hating Jedi by flinging a few sonic bombs his way.
I mean SONIC BOMBS. Wow! Why the fuck hasn’t anyone ever thought of using thos
Don’t be too hard on yourself. No morally upright person can jump down your throat, and tell you you’ll be thrown into a lake of fire if you use cheat codes on your favorite video game. Understandably, we all have the proclivity to try something else that works, especially when stuck in some particular scenario.
Who wouldn’t want to empower his alter ego with unlimited special abilities to beat th
After playing some fishing games on your PS1, and moving on to your game console addiction, you want to try out Call of Duty: Black Ops. Being a rookie doesn’t give you the excuse to head into the virtual battlefield unprepared. Moving forward through the storyline requires you to earn XP and CoD points, which are essential in acquiring new weapons, attachments, and killstreaks. Though a noob, you don’t need t

Hi sneaky cheaters.
For today, let’s talk about something other than cheating.
We all know how it’s a buzzkiller when someone types in “Black Sheep Wall” or /noclip, only to have it appear on the group-wide chat instead of the game console command. If the laughter of your peers don’t force you out of the game, then perhaps an enforced autokick + eternal ban will.
In short, no one likes
Ok dudes, I’m going to teach you about the magical art of cheat-making. For this we are going to use ZSNES’s built-in cheat editor. You will have to, of course, dump ROMs of games you own in order to play them legally in an emulator. This is your disclaimer.
Right, so the idea here is pretty simple. Games have to store information in memory. We look through the memory and find where they store that informatio
Video game addicts across the globe have always been looking for a way to take advantage of a glitch in the environment of a game, to give them an extra edge during gameplay. Depending on the type of gamer you may be, you may prefer to use classic cheat codes for all of your favorite game titles, but the reality of the situation is that cheat codes no longer exist in most of them, especially online multiplayer matc
Ah, cheating.
Many of us feel guilty when we dip into the C bucket, whether it’s an algebra exam in college or with the wife. Few, however, feel any guilt about cheating in a multiplayer game. Sure, it defeats the purpose of the game and dampens the fun and challenge. But let’s face it, any tradeoff in fun is usually compensated by the need to be the best player in the game, and pulling one over your ma
