On a private server of the MMO "Maplestory", I found a way to duplicate my items. No one knew, and no one could do the same trick(as far as I knew). I was the richest guy on there XD

I've cheated the system in many ways:

First let's go down to the old school Sim City:

When I needed extra funds I would leave taxes at 20% for one month and then drop them to 2% the next and then bring them back to normal. There was no lasting effect on my approval rating or population and I got a decent lump sum. I abused the hell out of that feature (not to mention building massive metropolises and then having Godzilla knock them down).


In Halo 3, I'll admit, the only way I was able to be Cortana on Legendary was co-op (at first). But with no second player, I just used the other character as a magic respawn point.


And In Star Ocean 2, I used the Magic Box trick to get the insanely powerful sword and started maxing out my levels in Expel.


That's just a few.

In a powerpuff girls GBC game i had when i was 9, i'd always stick in a cheatcode for infinite flying or health (you couldnt do both >>) cause i was such a bad gamer XDD now it stopped working so i can't see what happens at the end

How dare you!

...Well, it could be worse. You could've signed in four controllers on one XBox, four on another, and cheated simply to get achivements.

...My friend had me help him with that, since there was a few Multiplayer cheevies he couldn't get on his own.

In almost any game, if it bores me too much to finish that game:
Start -> Cheat engine -> search for unchanged value -> get hit ->... (1 minute later) -> now i'm ok.

Sonic isn't that cheap in Brawl. He's a highest tier character, but Meta Knight is the only character in the God Tier.

For Melee, Marth, Fox, and Shiek are the High Tiers.

For the original, Fox and Pika and Kirby are top tiers.. and which is mainly where my name comes from, as well as Kirby Super Star for SNES.

Off-Topic: If anyone is interested in playing smash bros. 64 online with me, send me a PM. I'll be happy to humiliate you. Just overthrew the supposed 'world best Kirby' a few months ago. *Yawn*

Back On-Topic: Basically any MMO in its early stages, as a very experienced beta tester, I always found loop holes, bugs and glitches... never reported them, just abused the hell out of them until they fixed them. Some victims remain in Runescape, WoW, Mabinogi, and Ever Quest.

I'm more of a single player game type of guy, and exploit in any way that isn't a cheat or abuse of state saves to help accomplish the fanciest or in some cases the fastest way to beat a game. Otherwise you pretty much HAVE to exploit the game to the max to complete uber challenge runs. (See my Terranigma thread for the current challenge).

Man, I'd take you on in a heartbeat if it were Brawl. Sadly I haven't played Smash in YEARS and as good as I am at Melee, if someone pulls out Fox or starts all that advanced Wavedashing/canceling bullcrap, I start crying in the corner. (that game is so broken, it isn't even funny. Why do people insist its a better game?)

I'm damn good at the Smash series as a whole, but that is out of even my league.

I agree about melee, definitely. Way too broken. But Brawl to me is way too blocky and not enough advanced techs. SSB64 has the perfect balance, in my opinion.

I find brawl way too slow. Melee has the perfect engine. As long as you don't play against japanese hardcore gamers, you're fine o.0

[Flamez]

Melee would be perfect without wavedashing.

Which is exactly why the original is the best.

i enjoy brawl the most. the original is far too blocky for me, plus it is almost impossible to find a n64 controller that will respond the way you want it to. brawl is a lot less blocky, theres no hax (like in ssbm), and there are more characters.

but on the cheapest thing ive done (or in this case, facilitated)...
pokemon diamond. wondertomb.

full story, i hacked a Spiritomb with Wonder Guard for one of my friends. that thing has no weaknesses, and thanks to Wonder Guard, is immune to PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING.
