I’ve been playing a lot of Bayonetta lately, a game that’s freaking  awesome by the way, and the ridiculously overpriced items available in the game store got me thinking about cheating in video games.

I think cheating is the kind of thing we’ve all done at least once in our gaming careers, but are a bit embarassed to talk about. It could be anything from a quick level skip, enganing noclip, pulling amazing weapons out of your ass to just plain old invulnerability.

So our topic for tonight is good old fashioned cheating.

- Do cheat codes, or cheating in general, make a game more or less fun?

- Have you ever cheated in a game? In what way?

- Is it cheating to exploit something within the game to, say, net you extra gold or lives?
