Xbox 360 - To Cheat or Not to Cheat

By Taylor Sanders

Many people would agree that when you are playing a game on the Xbox 360 and you hit a point where you are stuck and cannot go further, resorting to cheats is not the best way out. This is the quickest and easiest way out of any situation and most of the time it is not the best. 'You will only be fooling yourself' is the attitude of many people who are against cheating in games.

You need to remember that the game production companies design these games in such a way so that they can prove to be a challenge. The puzzles in the Tomb Raider games are in fact a perfect example, even though those who are avid fans may not find the puzzles impossible to overcome.

Amusingly enough, there are so many people who really get frustrated when they end up getting stuck in a game because for them, the main goal is to get through the game. The minute they get stuck they resort to the cheats, often using cheats which are capable of competing a level automatically.

The bottom line is; it takes a serious gamer to acknowledge the fact that cheating is wrong. Of course, it's easy to see why they feel this way, given that games can be incredibly expensive. If you find yourself stuck at a certain point for two or three hours, then rather than resorting to cheats, you should appreciate the fact that that is how the game is meant to be.

Of course there are some games which are exceptionally difficult, but that's the whole point. Irrespective of how difficult a game may be, you need to remember that it's not impossible to get through the game. In fact, that's why the production companies use game testers so that they can determine whether or not it's possible to complete a game from start to finish.

The logic behind this approach is that if they can get through the game, then so can you. You simply have to realize that some games require more thinking than others, but if you're a fan of action games in that you enjoy shooting the hell out of your enemies, then puzzle games can prove to be extremely challenging. This is essentially because you are accustomed to fighting your way through numerous enemies and when you get stuck, cheating simply doesn't solve the problem.

There are many people who view cheating in a game the same as they view cheating in a real life situation. Just as you shouldn't cheat in real life, so you should refrain from doing so when you play a game. If you do find yourself stuck at a certain point, you need to gather your thoughts so that you can look for a way past, bearing in mind that there is a way past and that you simply need to find it.

If you've always relied on cheats to get through a game, then the next time you play a new game you should really try to get through without using cheats. Firstly, you won't end up fooling yourself, and secondly, you'll be playing the game the way it should be played, but above all, you'll also end up enjoying it a lot more. - 18758
