Poll: Do you feel guilty when you cheat?

EDIT: opps double post sry

Nope.

Not even when I'm doing it against my friends in Pokemon matches. Granted, the only actual cheating I do is to give them moves they couldn't normally have (Groudon + Sacred Fire = AWESOMENESS), and even then they still have a good chance of beating me!

Cheating at Pokemon concerns me even less when it's against the game itself. Once you get to a certain point in the Battle Frontier challenges, cheating's practically the only way to even have a chance.

lol give a psyduck dragon rage XD

Guilty, no. I do however feel that by playing a game outside of it's normal rules I rob myself of the experience and challenge. I tend to reserve cheats for games that are broken and a cheat is needed to overcome this (such as the abysmal Gothic 3), or during a replay when I just feel like goofing off.

 

[Geekosaurus]

If I'm playing against the computer, no. But it grinds my gears when people cheat on online games; mainly modded controllers.

If you take sexual advantage of her use a modded controller, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

 

[DoctorObviously]

Yes, because a developer should make a game in the way you shouldn't be cheating.

 

[JoshGod]

nope. i just enjoy the awsomeness of the cheat.

 

[Jfswift]

I only cheat on single player and to save time usually (like a section I don't feel like clearing again).

 

[Hateren47]

I voted no but only because I have never cheated online.

 

[Devil's Due]

Normally, no. I only feel guilty if I cheat to beat the game on max difficulty. Thankfully, I haven't, because most game don't let you cheat on max difficulties. So I can cheat on lower levels or after I beat the game without a care in the world. But while I'm beating the game on max difficulty, I don't cheat (not much. Dead Space Impossible mode has to have to cheat the Statis recharge, but that's all, no health and god mod or whatnot), and then I feel like the game is complete.

Also, why not cheat? Especially in like the GTA:San Andreas, common, you gotta admit, those cheats are too awesome to pass up!

 

[SuperSuperSuperGuy]

Guilty? Heh. No. I consider cheating an effective use of resources, y'know? If you have the means to, you might as well...

 

[WaywardHaymaker]

Sometimes I do. Usually when I cheat, though, it's the Saints Row 2 style of cheating. Making everything insanely insane to the point the game is nearly broken from how much awesome it contains.

 

[Denamic]

Haven't even cheated at all for forever.
And when I cheat, it's usually to bypass some annoying 'feature', like Mass Effect 2's mining.
It got annoying the first playthrough.
REALLY annoying the second.
On the third, I just cheated.
So no, not really.

Cheating absolutely killed starcraft for me. I was young and sucked at it, so I turned to the back of the strategy guide that came in the battle chest, and used the pass the level instantly code. afterwards I couldn't go back and finish it because I felt that it was wrong.

 

[Baron von Blitztank]

Sometimes.
I don't really cheat, and if I do it's usually so I can Noclip my way out of a pool of acid which I cannot get out of. Or if it is like the Cheats in GTA:SA where use cheats to make the game that much more awesome and enjoyable. I.E- I can summon a jetpack, give myself infinite ammo, infinite health, spawn an attack helicopter, Sawn-off shotgun and then give myself the free right to Go nuts and kill everyone.

 

[TehIrishSoap]

To Quote ZP, Playing Just Cause 2 Is Like Playing With All The Cheats On!
I Love The Super Slow Mo Cheat In COD 4 LOL

 

[The King of Rock and Roll]

No but it sure pisses the girl off.

 

[William Dickbringer]

no cheating is fun in certain games like grand theft auto or saint's row where you do whatever you want I mean come on who doesn't want San Andreas with a jetpack and two sawn off shotguns with unlimited ammo enabled all while you have a six star wanted level

...you ninja'd me

If i'm playing for fun then no. But if i wanna feel like i've accomplished something then yes. I usually never cheat anyway. Last time I did was GTA: San Andreas, and it says alot about that game that I had more fun spawning a jet and flying it straight off the map for an hour and then turning around, than I ever did actually playing the game.

 

[Midnight Crossroads]

GTA3 had a flying tank. No, I don't feel guilty.

 

[K4ndY]

I can't recall ever cheating at a game. Not that I would feel guilty over doing something like that, but I guess I just never felt the need to do so.
