What is that one video game cheat code you'll never forget about?

I'll start us off with the classic "Explode All Cars" cheat from the classic 2004 game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, as that is one that I remember using a lot for no rhyme or reason:

R2, L2, R1, L1, L2, R2, SQUARE, TRIANGLE, CIRCLE, TRIANGLE, L2, L1

DIPSTICK to enable chests in rise of the trial. SEEYA for god mode where the protagonist just walks around with his hand of God yawning at how boring it is when there's no challenge. CUJO for dog mode.

Also, LONDON and NODNOL to enable/disable fog.

The first Sonic game. At the main screen, up, down, left, right, hold A, press start. You could jump to the final zone, if you were so inclined.

Star wars battlefront 2 2005 unlimited ammo and health on pc

Have to hover your mouse over a little box that blends into the background image on the instant action page and type the codes in. I still believe that game is better than all battlefronts afterwards too

Also from San Andreas (or maybe Vice City) R1 R2 L1 R2 left down right up left down right up. It was used for different weapon sets and I think you could change the dpad combo at the end for different sets (eg left down right up left down down down)

EREIAMJH to fly in Jedi Knight. I always thought it's just the name of some obscure Star Wars creature. But it's actually a reference to the movie Brazil.

I was going to use that exact cheat! The other one I used was to explode cars if you even barely tapped one

On secret of mana 2 (snes), hold L R Start Select then reset to go into sound test menu. Most Square games of the time had L R Start Select as a soft reset shortcut.

impulse101 on half life for all weapons.

LIM on Wolf3D for full health and all weapons

tgm on elder scrolls 4 and 5 for god mode

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island.

To get the hidden multiplayer mini-game screen (if you have a second controller you can play with a friend): at the map screen, hold Select and press X X Y B A.

I was never particularly bothered about the skulls in the Halo series, except Grunt Birthday Party. The games just aren't right without that occasional pop and cheer.

Nothing rolls off the tongue quite like Genie - Jafar - Aladdin - Abu... gets you to the last level of the SNES Aladdin game

[-] GeekMan@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

Up down left right Y B X A ..

I'm not even sure that that's right, and I'm not even sure what game it's for.

SNES definitely. Maybe Street Fighter II Turbo? Done at the CAPCOM logo it'd make a sound, then- you could play as the bosses? Maybe?

Or it's the movements for Zangief's spinning piledriver, heh. (It's not)
