What is that one video game cheat code you’ll never forget about?
I’ll start us off with the classic “Explode All Cars” cheat from the classic 2004 game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, as that is one that I remember using a lot for no rhyme or reason:
R2, L2, R1, L1, L2, R2, SQUARE, TRIANGLE, CIRCLE, TRIANGLE, L2, L1
Porkcharsui in the original pc version of Grand Theft Auto. If you named your character this, you had an overlay with coordinates so you could find your way easier, you’d get all the guns and the possibility to toggle a kind of sped up mode.
Oh and howdoiturnthison in Age of Empires 2 to get an AC Cobra with machine guns

Is it a “cheat” code if it’s basically required to beat the game…?
