NikhilVerma said:Well there are two major reasons why cheats are present for most of the games...
* It is easier for the developer to develop the game. e.g. if the developer wants to play level 3 of a game for debugging and stuff .. he would have to clear stages 1,2 to get there which will be long and hard... so instead he will use the cheats to get to level 3 directly and test it...
* It comes in handy when a gamer is stuck at a certain part of the game for a very long time... Using cheats he wil be able to continue...
Another minor reason is that the game becomes more popular as a n00b gamer can play it too...
I hope you get the point...
ctrl_alt_del said:@sujithome: Man, talk about an ironical statement. You say cheats sux and then go on to state that you have tried cheats in almost all games that you have played!!!
sujithtom said:I agree abt the developer reason. But if cheats are relesed to the public they will soon get bored of the game and will tell ppl tht the game is boring. If there is no cheat an n00b would spend a lot of time trying and trying and atlast suceed and he would never say tht the game is bad and will look for newer version.
Satissh S said:The Game developers must make three modes of play the cheat mode , non cheat mode and maybe tutorial mode . The non cheat mode should be made relatively easy and should be such tht it shd make the gaemr more engrossing into the play.
Cheats should be displyed to the gaemr once he finishes a level in the non-cheat mode keeping the setting hard.
The means he will play the game atleast to find the cheats!
