Some people call it cheating. Some people think it is just a different way of playing the game. I am one of the latter, and think that the only real cheating is using Action Replay and hacking. What do YOU do?

Results so far:

It's cheating: /

It's not cheating: ////////////////

Neutral: ///////

Vote and discuss.

I don't think of it as cheating, but it does ruin part of the fun of the game.

imnotbob · 2011-09-18 20:27:13

Not cheating. I use walkthroughs sometimes

I agree. I only use it to get through some parts.

ScareCrowCritic · 2011-09-18 20:29:02

It depends how you look at things. If the video game company who makes it, makes an official guide, it isn't cheating. If they don't, it is.

Nope, never.

I find it totally ruins the fun and excitement of the game, but it really isn't cheating. Its fun to read the after you beat them however.

bananaman114 · 2011-09-18 21:41:06

I do, but only if I'm really stuck or playing Half Life in which I'm almost always stuck eventually so I keep one open in a window behind the game

kimmy123 · 2011-09-18 21:42:16

Yes, but only if I am stuck on a part in a game.

I don't think it's cheating.

I've used walkthroughs, only to get through the tough parts. I don't think it's cheating, I just think it's a bit of help.

JJROCKER · 2011-09-18 21:44:18

Not cheating

jji7skyline · 2011-09-18 21:51:55

It's not cheating smile

hdarken · 2011-09-18 22:07:03

No.

FlyingHatTrick · 2011-09-18 22:12:58

I use it sometimes, but only when I'm stuck on a very hard part such as the Last Day chapter in SMT: Devil Survivor. Other than that, I just get through it on my own.

ToxicQuillz · 2011-09-18 22:42:50

I think walkthroughs are helpful. Even though I rarely use them. So it's not cheating for me.

Agreed.

undefeatedgames · 2011-09-18 22:57:40

I definitely use them on hard levels big_smile

randomnumber53 · 2011-09-18 23:00:10

No, but that's mostly because I don't play video games wink

my-chemical-romance · 2011-09-19 02:55:11

it's cheating in puzzle games, but in action games etc when you can't find out where you're meant to go or what you're meant to do next (like in GTA games) it's really helpful

wulfmaster · 2011-09-19 03:08:47

Neutral. Very, very neutral.

meew0 · 2011-09-19 09:52:27

I watch them when I am bored. tongue

And I don't think it's cheating.

Not cheating. I use them when I get stuck.

Corne7 · 2011-09-19 15:34:50

Neutral. Using them on an easy game is pointless. Using them on a game you can't beat lets you keep playing.

Yeah, but what about really hard games from Japan (ever played Dragon Quest 9?) What about the people who can't read Japanese?
