What is that one video game cheat code you’ll never forget about?
I’ll start us off with the classic “Explode All Cars” cheat from the classic 2004 game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, as that is one that I remember using a lot for no rhyme or reason:
R2, L2, R1, L1, L2, R2, SQUARE, TRIANGLE, CIRCLE, TRIANGLE, L2, L1
The konami code
klapaucius - money cheat for Sims 1
bb.moveobjects
I wasn’t particularly wowed by the gameplay of the sims 4, but I really enjoyed the building mode, especially with the freedom to put stuff exactly where I wanted, collision and autosnapping be damned.
Up, Down, Left, Right, A, Start - Sonic The Hedgehog.
howdoyouturnthison - Age Of Empires 2.
motherlode
I was never particularly bothered about the skulls in the Halo series, except Grunt Birthday Party. The games just aren’t right without that occasional pop and cheer.
Surprised nobody mentioned “motherlode”.
Something like 50k simoleons in The Sims 2. Absolutely essential to any save file.

Down up left left A right down to get the cheat menu on Mortal Kombat on the Sega Megadrive.
On Revenge of Shinobi set the number of shurikens on the Options screen to 0 and wait 20 seconds. The zero turned into an infinity symbol, giving you unlimited shurikens.
Call Cousin Vinnie
It gave you a boatload of money in SC3K
ROSEBUD
Ratchet and clank 3, the cheat code is told to you in a cutscene:
“Aren’t you going to unlock his secret costumes? Here, I’ll put in a cheat code. Up up down down left right circle square square… Haha! Look! He’s in a tutu!”
ROBINWOOD (I think) in AoE II
How do you turn this on ftw
I remember the cheat but not the exact game lol. Definitely Sega Mega Drive though.
ABRACADABRA (R for d-pad right, D for d-pad down).
Going by a Google search it could’ve been Vectorman or Ecco 2. Or both because I played both a lot back then.
