(Yep, I did it…I got a PS3. Y’care to know why, just ask.)

Okay, I know that there isn’t a Codebreaker or any similar “enhancement device” for any of the current-gen systems. I know that there probably will never be any until a new generation comes out…if there ever is one…or someone finds a way to prevent these devices from going online.

I’ve heard, here and elsewhere, about game-specific mods, enhancements, whatever, that work the same as Codebreaker codes. How do they work? More to the point, where do I _get_ them? (I’ll pay! I’m used to that!)

Look, I’ll level…I don’t have time for the pain anymore. I’ve never, _ever_ used video games an an expression of self-worth, and I don’t even know the _meaning_ of “honor”. (Nor do I suspect most of the loudmouths who throw that word around.) I just want to repulse Cao Cao’s fleet, commandeer the tank, pound Seth into next week, etc., with a minimum of hassle.

I’m looking at mostly the difficult action titles…Time Crisis 4, the WWE games, BlazBlue, Street Fighter 4, Gundam Warriors, Haze, etc.

P.S.: None of that feeble “gamesaves” crap; no worthless in-game codes that demand 10 pounds of flesh in return. Total control or nothing.

P.P.S.: I hereby promise to never develop the slightest interest in the utterly pointless cesspool of cheating and foul language and caring way, way too much that is online gaming. I mean, use any of these codes online. 🙂

Too bad. You’re missing out online.  
Also, repulsing Cao Cao’s fleet is easy. Bah!

Okay, forget Cao Cao. License exams in Gran Turismo 5? Super/Ultra bars in Street Fighter 4? Just a little extra stamina in Fight Night Round 4? There’s gotta be something out there, right? I’ll pay! (Well, I suppose that’s a given…)

Don’t need any for Rock Band or Guitar Hero, 'cause those are cool on their own.

I’m with you on the license exams in Grand Turismo. Those simply suck. There’s plenty of stamina in Fight Night, just don’t throw as many punches and make the ones that you throw count.
