Cheat codes are widely used in many playstation games. It was first used in the video game Atari, after which its use has been widespread since.

Though cheat codes are basically used for cheating, there are those serious playstation gamers that refuse to use them. However, developers and creators made use of cheat codes to be able to test play the various aspects of playstation games.

Cheat codes in different mediums

Cheat codes are entered differently in a variety of mediums. On the consoles of video games, cheat codes are entered as button press sequences. Meanwhile, on computers, cheat codes are entered as texts. Cheat codes could also be entered with the use of a mouse.

Infamous cheat codes

One of the more popular cheat codes were those of Konami where one is to press two ups, down, another down, a left, a right button, and again another left and right, the B button then the A button and then Start.

The game Gradius was the first to use this cheat code and is also used dominantly in the Contra video game.

Another famous cheat code is the Genesis Sega Mortal Combat version where one is to press A, then B then A again, then C, then another A and two B’s.

What followed then was a fatality and a full game of blood, and probably also a win.

Cheats for the Tomb Raider game part three

For a more fun adventure and if you want to cheat your way to an enjoyable win, the following are cheat codes for Lara Croft.

In order to acquire all the cheat code secrets, press quickly press L2 five times, then R2, then L2 three times, then R2, then L2, then R2 then L2 two times, then R2, then L2 two times, then R2, then L2 two times during a particular game.

If you find Lara Croft saying “aahh” the above code is therefore entered correctly.

Meanwhile, in order to acquire all the medical kits, weapons, crystals and flares, press L2, then R2 two times, then L2 four times, then R2, then L2, then R2 two times, then L2, then R2 two times, then L2 two times, then R2, then L2 two times, then R2.

Lara Croft will then scream if the codes are correctly entered.

All in all, cheat codes are fun only if used in moderation. After all, if cheat codes are used every time, where is the fun in that?

Playstation's Most Popular Games

The Sony Playstation is popular for a lot of reasons, but it's due mainly to its games. Pump up your gaming collection with these recommendations:

Tomb Raider: Anniversary Edition

Where would we be without Lara? The tough chick with the brains to match is back and while she's had work done, nobody's complaining. Lara's original look is on display with her navy unitard and twin pistol holsters but her movements (and that of her animal foes) are more fluid. Expect more sounds and musical score on the new game than on the original.

Marvel: Ultimate Alliance

One of the best RPG/action game experiences in Playstation, this has all your Marvel superheroes in one game. Play Capt. America or Wolverine or spin webs against your enemies as Spiderman. Your game will determine the destiny of planet earth and have positive or negative effects on the Marvel universe. Build a team and work together, complete with your own team name, logo and even superhero vehicle. If you've always wanted to be a superhero, add this game to your collection.

Final Fantasy VII

For surreal, intense and utterly beautiful visuals, Final Fantasy is it. And the game isn’t too shabby either. The storyline is complex and you play the game as Cloud Strife, ex-soldier, now-terrorist fighting against the evil Shinra Corp. You won't get the plot right away (nobody said FF VII played like a bad B movie), but you'll enjoy its unraveling as you go along. Learn magic, explore dungeons, recruit other fighters to your side. If the story doesn’t hypnotize you, the graphics surely will.

Kingdom Hearts

For the child in you that never left the building, Kingdom Hearts lets you follow Sora as he tries to find out whatever happened to King Mickey, who's gone missing. Join forces with Capt. Goofy and Court Wizard Donald in a beautiful but precarious world that only Disney can create. Get to meet familiar heroes like Tarzan, Hercules and a host of other leading Disney characters and villains.

Call of Duty 3

Intense fighting still your top choice? Call of duty lets you get in on the action and experience fierce combat for the Liberation of Paris, one of the most difficult and bloody war campaigns during WWII. The story narrative is smooth so you never get lost and the action is breathtaking. Join the Allied forces as they strive to survive the Normandy Breakout.

Guitar Hero

Tired of all the fighting? Cater to your musical genius and play guitar with a Gibson Flying SG-shaped controller. Simulate the greatest guitar riffs from songs by artists such as David Bowie, Audioslave, the Ramones and Red Hot Chili Peppers.

How To Save Money When Buying a Playstation

When it comes to game consoles, people are willing to wait in long queues that normally come every time a new console is being launched. But nothing about game consoles could hurt people more than the high prices that these devices are sold for, not to mention the astronomical amounts for which compulsory game console peripherals are offered on the market.

Take the case of Sony's Playstation. Playstation is a series of game consoles that has captured the fantasies of gamers worldwide. Its first model launched in the 1990's was the first game console to ever reach the mark of 100 million in units sold, making it one of the most successful game consoles of all times. Its latest version, the Playstation 3, or PS3 as it is more commonly referred to, could fetch more than $400 depending on the package or gigabytes that a unit comes with.

But while Playstation has made and will continue to make a gamer's life more interesting, it can certainly hurt anybody's wallet. Fortunately, there are ways to cutback on your Playstation shopping spree. You will only need patience and willingness to look for better and cheaper deals. Here are two effective strategies that can save you money when buying your Playstation.

The first and the most important thing to consider in buying your Playstation is the repetitive nature of the game console industry. Playstation and other game consoles on the market tend to be more expensive during and a few weeks after their launch dates. After all the hype has cleared, you can wait for a few weeks or even months when game console prices normally fall; which could mean savings for you. While this approach may be offensive to faithful gamers, it definitely saves you money and gives you more headway to think about your purchasing decision as more reviews and possible product developments will be made during your waiting period.

Second, buy your Playstation in bundled packages. As you will not only spend for your game console itself but also for other peripherals like CD format games, you might as well be on the lookout for Playstation units being sold with the whole shebang. While at first look, the price of these packages may be higher than unbundled ones, money is still saved from the deal because you won't need to buy components separately. From controllers to memory sticks, a bundled Playstation package is ready for play.

If you can't find any bundled Playstation packages in your area, you can set sights on buying bundled games. While you didn't save on the Playstation unit, you save on the games you play on it. Gaming stores, both online and real world, offer Playstation games with huge discounts on multiple or bundled purchases.

Latest Version Of Playstation

Playstation 3 is the latest version in the series of Playstation game consoles from Sony. It is considered to be the most highly-developed game console on the market today. Armed with jaw-dropping graphics and sound quality, Playstation 3 is set to be a killer in the pond of game consoles.

Released in the spring of 2006, there are lots to know about this system. The following are the reasons why Playstation 3 may well become the new standard in gaming experience. Read on for the best features that contribute to Playstation 3's unbeatable graphics, excellent game control, and other capabilities.

High Definition Graphics
One of the most stellar qualities of the Playstation 3 is its standard Blu-ray optical drive or disc player. This device allows the game console to play high-definition movies in CD or DVD formats. With this feature, the Playstation 3 transcends its role from a mere video gaming device into a full-fledged entertainment apparatus that can literally raise the roof.

Network Capabilities
This game console can be hooked up online thru the Playstation Network. With this feature, you can play online and download more games and other entertainment forms like music. Networking thru the Playstation Network comes absolutely free. Plus, Playstation 3 also supports online chat and surfing using the game console's SIXAXIS controller.

Excellent Controllers
Playstation 3 comes with a SIXAXIS controller that has first-rate analog machine sensitivity. The controllers respond simultaneously to your commands as if they are part of your brain. Though the controllers look similar to the earlier version of Playstation, they have a more trigger-like feel that enhances your imagination. The game console can support up to seven controllers for that exciting group gaming via Bluetooth technology.

Aesthetic Appearance
Perhaps, the best feature that Playstation 3 can offer apart from the killer graphics it provides is its physical design. This console doesn't look like any ordinary game console that has come before; rather, it looks like a part of an alien technology thousands of years ahead of human civilization.

Truly, Playstation 3 is more than just a game console. Essentially, it is a home entertainment device that has wrapped all your entertainment needs into one box. With an astonishing computing capability, graphical and audio qualities never seen or heard before can now make your gaming experience more realistic. Literally, Playstation 3 will enable you to become part of adventures and backdrops that in the past were only seen in fantasies and reserved for Hollywood performers.
