Hey all, I just want to know what your guys's opinion on cheating in games. Me and my dad are talking about cheating, because he is using a program called "Cheat Engine" to slow things down in a game (CarTown, so he can do races easier[if you know what it is]). And he's asking me if I would like for him to set up "Cheat Engine" for me teach me how to use it. I'm telling him no, that I don't want to cheat because then I don't feel like "I" did it, I feel like I didn't really accomplish anything. And he's telling me that I cheat on other games; so of course told him to give me an example. He told me that I've cheated on things like Zelda, Mario, etc. and explained how looking up a walkthrough for a game is cheating. I don't consider this cheating though, but he still stands by it; as he says, and I quote "It is technically considered cheating, because you are using an outside source to gain an unfair advantage". I don't agree with this, what I consider "cheating" is using something like a GameShark or something similar to that or even looking up cheat codes of sorts to get things you normally would be able to get. To put it simply, I consider cheating altering the game in some way; such as in Zelda, let's say you just started a game, you have no Idea what you're doing, so you use GameShark to every item in the game right off the bat - THAT'S cheating. Not starting a game, not knowing what you're doing, and looking up a walkthrough - That is NOT cheating, that is simply getting a little help when you need it. Anyway, just tell me what you guys think about this, and what do all of you guys consider cheating?
