I try a legitimate play through the game, and I can usually get through it without many problems,unless it's brutally difficult like DMC3.

It depends hey~ I think I'll only cheat once I have completed the game, because cheating is not that you cheating others but yourself, if you don't have skills, then cheating is the quickest way out, but hey~ sometimes it gets too hard so I guess it's normal for people to cheat^^~

Im one that always works within the rules...As it might be fun trying to find data that didn't make the final cut in a game, I naever use a cheating device to give me an upper hand....On contray, if I feel a games too "Easy" i'll use a device to make it harder! :unsure:

I only cheat when a game is so hard that I stand no chance of completing it without breaking something in frustration... Or, of course, if I ahve already beaten the game and was to cheat my way through it again. :unsure:

If I'm stuck in a tight spot, I'll go online and look through FAQs. I also abuse glitches sometimes also. I use cheat codes all the time to get through certain games.I don't really approve of cheating devices though.

I always complete the game first then cheat (with maybe two or so exceptions when the game just got too hard and frustrating).

I either cheat when it gets too hard or when it stops being fun. Then I use as many cheats as possible to just own everything :)

I thought of myself as one of those people who never cheated, except now that I think about it I remember looking up answers to Monkey Island and Myst as a child. I remember even calling the LucasArts hotline for tips on how to finish Loom. God I was lame.My excuse now is that now that I'm older, I don't have time to go through all the meaningless hoops they put in there, but the more that I think about it. I was always lazy minded, trying to find shortcuts in games, as well as in life.

If you consider referring to a guide or walkthough cheating then yes. I just do that I'm stuck or I want to finish the game fast.

I don't use cheats that have a big impact on my game, like I use the forcetwins cheat when I want a bigger challenge in the Sim 2. Cheaters don't win!Sometimes I do use a walkthrough if I get stuck, but then I weren't good enough to clear the game anyways.

i don't know how to use cheat codes, but i do sometimes look at guides after I beat the game. I don't know if that is considered cheating
