A few years later for the PlayStation 3 and Steam (PC) fronts came achievements in their respective forms. The Xbox 360 gamer got the marvel of the achievement around 2005 (or so I remember hearing them being spoken about).

PC gaming is a whole different story that I will elaborate later.

But around the late period of the Xbox and latter portion of the PlayStation 2 & GameCube eras, the cheat code was going extinct like the dodo. Cheat codes were a common thing for the 8-bit, 16-bit, 32-bit era, and some of the 64-bit and higher era… Around 1995, you had sites with the word “cheat” laced in them in some form or fashion if you wanted to look up cheat codes. For the uninitiated: Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, Start for 30 extra lives in the game. I know many readers can empathize with me on games like Contra (NES) where the infamous Konami code became a thing of legend.

I couldn’t go “ Dad! Can you help me beat Zawell in Dragon Spirit? I can’t predict his bullets!” I’d just hit up the cheats for the level select to hit up Zawell’s Castle and then throw in the 20 lives cheat and just tough it out instead of restarting from level 1 and trying to do the game with 3 lives. I didn’t have any family members who liked playing video games, so if I couldn’t beat a game I was just stuck. I know my primary reason for doing so (as a kid) in games was I just wanted to see the ending. With that, I am not ashamed to admit I had moments I’d scream out “Augh! I am gonna use a cheat code! This boss is so CHEAP!!!” Keep in mind, this was around the 1990’s era so we either hoped for one of two things:ġ) The game producer coded in some cheat codes within the game.Ģ) Someone found a cheat code via a game enhancer product such as Game Genie or Action Replay.

At that age, video game skills are at their infantile stages as hand-eye coordination and motor skills are still developing. Are cheat codes from our youth are now obsolete?Īt a young age, I remember some video games being terribly frustrating.
