GameHacking.org Weekly Hacking Target!

[Lazy Bastard]

GHANMI: Cool; pick one game, or I'll assume your first suggestion is your choice

[rimsky82]

I vote for Temple of Doom, Tengen, NES. Only a handful of Galoob codes.

How about "The World Ends With You" For the Nintendo DS?

[Hybrid]

i got an idea how about a set of games to cover a broader spectrum of hackers
it could get more people participating in it.

[Helder]

How about 2 to 3 games per system with some average to advanced codes with the advanced hackers ( you know who you are) only able to tackle the advanced codes. This way the average and less experienced hackers can join in otherwise it's a repeat of the previous challenges.

[Hybrid]

yeah that sounds like a good idea

[frogz2007]

I have to say PS2 - Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus. Try to decrypt the game so the files are accessible.

[juhu]

high steal rate or 100% steal for ff7

[rimsky82]

People keep posting specific code requests. The point of this thread is to choose a game, and then hackers choose the codes to hack, using their creative minds and competitive edge.

Read post #1.

[xxphillips]

please do a nes or snes game as one of the games and I will join in. How do you know if a hack is advanced or basic?

[Demonic722]

xxphillips, my definition of a "basic" code is a code that is, but not limited to, something you can see being mutated. They are usually presented with a visual representation (life counter, health bar, etc.) of what has been altered. If a code can be found with a known value search, it could be regarded as basic. I would only consider these advanced if you're dealing with a shared routine or a multilevel pointer.

An example of an advanced code is a Walk Through Walls code. I can elaborate on this, but I don't think it's necessary.

I nominate High Speed for NES. Making an "Infinite Balls" code was easy, but I'd liketa see a code or codes to eliminate the ball-eating monsters.

[Hacc]

- Not so popular games and those with 1 or 2 codes.
- Different genres and available in some form to those participating. Those neglected genres such as kids and sports need love, too. *forced to say by niece and nephew with the eyes*
- No debuggers (optional to earn extra points or just to become harder, better, faster, stronger). A plus for some PS2 games, where the code is fully labeled.

[M1CR0H4CK3R]

I say Disney's Extreme Skate Adventure. The Gamecube version deserves a look as well (hence the request). The GC version only has 2 codes made for it, and the PS2 version only has 1 Codebreaker code. Considering DESA is a HEAVILY copyrighted game, I won't ask what methods will be used to 'acquire' the game.

[Lazy Bastard]

OK, anyone who hasn't recommended a specific game should do so. I'll create the poll the day after tomorrow or so and see where the votes are
