In addition to cheat codes, this version of Codebreaker has an integral device manager that allows you to manipulate your data on a memory card or a USB flash device. It's hard to judge if codes are ACTIVE or INACTIVE. For example, Codebreaker is the only cheat device that regularly include 'joker' codes that allow code effects to occur when certain buttons or combination of buttons are pressed. This is one of the trademark abilities for all versions of Codebreaker, the other being some damn neat code support. The best thing about the Codebreaker however, is that it has a buffer that 'remembers' the last line of code you entered, making it easy to enter multiple line codes by changing a few values and digits instead of having to re-type the whole line of code.
The integral buffer feature helps when entering more than four lines of code. The L1 and R1 buttons allow you to navigate a line of code quickly and with good response. On screen context help scrolls by constantly on the bottom of the screen, reminding you of what buttons do what function and where. In order for you to use codes for old games, you need the old version of the cheat program (good luck on EBay if you need to find one) while codes on newer games require the purchase of the updated version of the cheat program not so with Codebreaker.Įach version of Codebreaker is backswards compatible with earlier codes, so you can probably spend less money updating your cheat disc and simply buy a new version of Codebreaker when ever there is a major version upgrade (say from version 7.0 to version 9+).Ħ00 games is a good thing you'll have codes for most older games Navigating Codebreaker is fairly simple and easy, thanks to some built in shortcuts. The current trend of cheat devices is something called 'planned obsolescence' - this is the situation when codes for newer cheat devices do not work on older devices (and vice versa). Since there's no weird plastic thing to accompany the package, all you need to use cheats at a friend's house is just the disc and the memory card where you have your cheat codes saved to.Ĭodebreaker is a little more flexible than GameShark and Action Replay however. The savings supposedly gets passed onto the consumer, so Codebreaker usually costs less than comparable cheat devices. The Good - Being sold 'disc only', Codebreaker's cost to manufacture is cut. Like many cheat devices and programs available in the current market, Codebreaker uses the PS2's memory card to store new cheats you enter or download from its site. As a cheat device, the Code Breaker is a no-nonsense kind of deal - it's disc only - and can go straight into your Playstation 2 right out of the box. Previous versions not withstanding, the Codebreaker has enjoyed great support from it code-generating staff (formerly the GameShark Code Creators Club). Pelican has finally pushed to market a meaty Codebreaker.
