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
DOOM: IDDQD - god mode, IDKFA - all weapons / items
SimCopter - I’M THE CEO OF MCDONNELL DOUGLAS unlocks all helicopters
Superpower multiply
Rosebud for money in the Sims
Don’t forget all the :;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;

Actually it works in a whole bunch of Konami games, and of course some modern games have thrown it in as an homage.
IDKFA, and many others
IDSPISPOPD … and I even remember what it abbreviates… why?
Smashing Pumpkins Into Small Pieces Of Putrid Debris
Idk why it has also stuck with me, it’s a really cool cheatcode
Something to do with getting the chainsaw if I recall correctly but it never worked for me, or on whatever version of the wad I had.
This is the one I use to prove my old nerd cred, lol

aegis for Age of Empires II. Instant building, gathering, research, etc. And of course marco for revealing map and polo to remove fog of war. cheese steak jimmy’s for extra food and lumberjack for extra wood. I always struggled to manage those two resources. But even more importantly, how do you turn this on, for that cool siege sports car.
Man, I played a lot of AoE as a child and teenager.
Don’t forget robin hood and rock on.
Impulse101 for Half-Life to get everything from the very beginning and create havok for the scientists.

My username. If you enter urata as your name when you play Castlevania III for NES you start with the mage character (Sypha Belnades) available from the start.
Also iddqd for god mode and idkfa for all weapons in DOOM because that game was way too hard when I was a kid.
