Usually after the game's novelty has worn off, to make it a LITTLE more fun.

Call me Mr. Cheat. 100% of the time, i cheat all the way through the game, get all the best stuff, and beat games that would other wise take weeks, in a couple hours. i love websites with walkthroughs. Gameshark and action replay are my best friends. game glitches are da best! code lists, backdoor entrances, even buying games that were screwed with so that you're already 5/6 of the way through the game. Gimme maps, power ups, no game has absolutely no cheating involved in them when im around. Play it all the way first? Ha! Cheat cheat cheat!

I don't use "cheats" themselves, but when I'm completely stuck and getting ticked off, that's when I revert to guides. But that's the one and ONLY time I'll use help to beat a game.

i finish the game and use the cheats to quickly get the cool stuff i missed out during my first run..plus its fun to meddle with the game where you get to do stuff that's not supposed to happen

The only time I ever cheated was some spiderman game... it was so bad but with one code you could play as the green goblin which made it bearable for a short time.

i cheat... sometimes, thats why i voted for sometimes. like when i get completely stuck or when i wanna do something that i can't get to yet. you get me? but be ware! (!) some cheats may also screw up your game and you will lose your data or some games become VERY boring if you use certain cheats.

Cheating makes things booring, what's the use of playing a game when you can't lose, or getting ammo when you've been to stupid to save a little.

I like to cheat once I've already finished the game, so that way, I can have the best fun out of it...

I dont enjoy using cheats, but if there is something which is just too hard, the only way to advance is to cheat

cheating takes the sense of false accomplishment out of gaming.

Only when the game gets rather annoying like in FF2, damned Gordon died about 6 times on me already!

occasionally i use cheats for a game. It's usually when the game is either too hard, or when i miss something that i can't get later.

On my first play through the game, I don't cheat at all, unless you count consulting GameFAQS if I get stuck. Once I've beaten it though, I'm all for messing around with glitches and trying out all the awesome cheats for it.

I usually keep the cheating limited to walk throughs too, but I tend to get carried away and read ahead. Usually feel dumb afterward for ruining the game. After missing half of the GF's on FFVIII, I had to replay with the help of some guides... I tend to abuse state saves on emulators too, I hate redoing stuff.
