    I play a lot of Forza 3 and tonight I finally used the money glitch. Oddly though (and for the first time ever I might add) I felt guilty about using a cheat. Maybe I wouldn't have felt as bad if I had used it earlier before I put in all that work. This time though it got to me and I ended up selling the cars I bought and resetting the cash.

    Anyone else ever felt guilty about something like this or am I just getting soft?

    Not guilty, but I lack that feeling of actual achievement when I cheat.

    I usually cheat after I complete the game so its got some fun replay value (e.g. gta4)
    but some games with everything locked at first ,ala forza 3 I have no problems with cheating on.....I mean I paid £35 to drive supercars not to struggle with a fuckin astra for 3 hours damn it!!!! lol.

    I used a money glitch in oblivion, i dont feel bad when i know i could get the money by farming items and selling them and wasting that much more time doing a boring task. that type of game play is too tedious. id rather spend it playing more games, I logged 180+hrs
    with the glitch...

    I feel more guilty when I'm buying into the BS and actually giving real money for stuff in a game that used to COME WITH THE GAME and not "sold separately"

    Cheating ruins the experience though

    Main reason i cheat

    So many games and systems i like too little time..
    The older I get the faster time goes and the less I have to just play.

    There a few categories of games for me.

    Must have
    Buy on release pay full price(support dev)
    Never cheat play on normal or hard. No guides
    May cheat after I beat it to unlock things.

    Ones I Like
    Buy used or on clearance play on normal.

    Got Cheap just ok.
    Buy real cheap or bootleg
    Play on easy or cheat use guides.

    Old classics
    There are a lot. I just want a blast from the past
    Play a few levels or cheat.
    Most of my favs I beat legitly don’t care to now and cheat.

    Revenge games
    Those damn games you could never truly beat when you gave it your best in the past.
    A lot of these are ones from my young days for 8bit and 16bit systems.
    Some are terrible by today's standard but I'll go back and cheat or create codes to cheat if needed.
    Dick tracy genesis, jaws nes, ninja gaiden nes/xbox, batman lynx
    Steel battalion(made my own trainer).. many more
