does gta5 have crazy poo poo or is it lame and limited like gta4

My experience was that it was limited sadly.

It had a couple of cool physics ones but nothing as cool as Saints Row

what the gently caress happened to cheat codes? These days if you want big head mode you have to cut off your balls and mail them to ubisoft.

it's sickening is what it is.

Off topic: DLCs and internet connectivity wrecked games imo. Back in the day, you could find a couple exploits that were pretty neat, but now you're better off waiting a week AFTER release for all the goofy poo poo to get fixed.

On topic: I remember stealing my dad's keyboard to enter gameshark codes on the ps2. Spent more times entering codes than playing some games.

It went back to GTA3/VC/SA style ones which was cool. In fact when I was playing it I tried the one I had burned into my muscle memory and I think it was the same cheat even.

I still use cheats, CheatCC is still at large, they've got a lot of good Codes, so does World-Of-Nintendo which is still around, there's still a lot of great Cheats out there, they didnt just disappear. The games didnt disappear. Theyre still out there, theyre still good games, the cheats still work. They arent around for most modern games because theres no gameshark for Wii U.. Yet.

it made lightsabers fully "realistic", meaning that even if they weren't in an attack animation they would instantly dismember anyone in range.

this made for very fun saber vs. gunner and not very balanced saber vs saber

it is both a monkey and a boombox
I used to go to gamefaqs to find cheats and then the cheats sections started to be filled with how to get these stupid things called "achievements."

ACHIEVEMENTS AREN'T CHEATS.

I think GTA V still carries on the tradition of that series' cheat codes though? (actually looking through thread, oh :smith:)

The whole iphone version of that game is a hate crime against gaming and not only because of that screen.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbht_bSvKcs

It's petty but the part that kills me is every level being just sprites on top of Background.jpg.
You don't see it as much in this particular video though because it's just the intro map (inexplicable screen changes notwithstanding).

I guess the closest you get to cheats in modern games, are trainers. Still, no physics exploits, but mostly godmode, invisibility, weapons, resources, what have you.

There's all kinds of cheat codes in modern games if you keep your eyes peeled. Check GameFAQS for a quick list.
