From the famous Konami code to spawning in your own private attack helicopter at will to raise havoc in Grand Theft Auto, cheats have been a part of game culture for as long as games themselves have existed. Today we’ll be discussing some of our favorite memories of cheat codes, exploits and more.

It’s our final episode of 2024 and we’re going out with a bang with a game that not only spawned one of gaming’s most beloved franchises, but helped launch its console as a serious competitor in the industry. We’re talking about none other than That One Game, Halo: Combat Evolved. Released on November 15, 2001 alongside Microsoft’s Xbox game console, Halo revolutionized the first person shooter genre for consoles and established a standard that the genre still adheres to to this day.

In addition to an iconic campaign that was fully playable via 2-player splitscreen co-op, Halo had its own multiplayer mode that took advantage of the Xbox’s four controller ports. Multiplayer maps varied from small arenas to large open battlefields optimized for combat with the game’s generous variety of vehicles. When the game eventually made its way to PC, so too did the multiplayer enjoy online matchmaking for the very first time.
