The definitive arcade video game cheat sheet.
|
||
|
|
Last update: 01 Dec 1992.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This list was started by Jeremy Radlow. Due to the fact that he's lost his
|
||
|
|
net access (horrors), I'm now the administrator of this list.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note : Ignore the ftp info for now ... Clay Cowgill's NeXT cube was stolen
|
||
|
|
and the ftp site went with it ... so email to musjndx@gsusgi2.gsu.edu
|
||
|
|
for a copy of the cheat sheet. Please do not email to my gisatl
|
||
|
|
address as I do not keep the cheat sheet.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To get an up-to-date copy of the video game cheat sheet, ftp a copy from
|
||
|
|
tsunami.cs.orst.edu in the pub/cheats directory or, if you can't ftp, send a
|
||
|
|
message to musjndx@gsusgi2.gsu.edu. There is not now, nor will there ever
|
||
|
|
be, a 'mailing list'. Nor will I post the sheet to USENET due to its
|
||
|
|
excessive size. This is mainly to keep my mailbox from getting flooded with
|
||
|
|
the large number of resulting responses. (and I do mean *large*).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you have already made a contribution to the cheat sheet and wish a new copy,
|
||
|
|
just ftp a new copy or let me know and I'll mail you an up-to-date version.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please note : due to the high traffic involving this list, it might take me
|
||
|
|
up to a week or so to actually mail you a copy of the list.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There are three sections to the cheat sheet:
|
||
|
|
* Beginners section. This contains either cheats that don't get
|
||
|
|
you much, or cheats that are only helpful to advanced players.
|
||
|
|
* Intermediate section. This contains cheats that can get you
|
||
|
|
a big edge. They are usually not any harder than playing the
|
||
|
|
game honestly.
|
||
|
|
* Advanced section. This contains extremely low-effort high-pay
|
||
|
|
cheats; secret back doors; and in the next revision will contain
|
||
|
|
advanced general-purpose game beating strategies, if someone sends
|
||
|
|
me some.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When you send in a cheat, it'll be put in one of these sections and you
|
||
|
|
will get a copy of the cheat sheet in return. Basically, you get out what
|
||
|
|
you put in ...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Some of these cheats may be inaccurate; don't trust anything attributed
|
||
|
|
to someone else. If it turns out that some information is wrong - don't get
|
||
|
|
mad, get even! Tell me what's wrong. Please note, though, that different ROM
|
||
|
|
versions on machines may eliminate some cheats ...

(When you send in your cheat, please send in your high score. Don't
|
||
|
|
send in a high score without a cheat/strategy, it'll be ignored.
|
||
|
|
And multi-credit games don't count ... but multi-player games do. That's
|
||
|
|
what the [mp] slot is for. The idea behind this high score sheet is
|
||
|
|
that if you have a high score higher than one listed here, you must
|
||
|
|
know something useful ...)
