GRAND THEFT CHEATS
Grand Theft Auto is best known as being the father of sandbox games, but among fans it is known just as well for its brilliantly massive selection of cheats. GTA (and Rockstar in general) has a prolific legacy of sequential button pressing, and didn’t just influence the sandbox concept, but also the concept of total player freedom. Sure you can play through the games diligently finding weapons and completing missions, or you can spawn a tank and every weapon, slow down time, and intentionally tip off the FBI.

If you’re uber tricky, you can levitate upside down. Oh, hi YouTube, you say you have a video?
But back in the days of NES games, glitches were just as important – mostly because the games were so damn hard. Early NES game Blaster Master was brimming at the rim with malfunctions, the most considerable of which made boss fights negligible. If the player paused the game as an explosion hit a boss, the damage effect was not suspended, and the boss’ life was depleted while the player sat back and sipped his iced tea…or whatever it was people drank in 1988. The player below managed to glitch his way out of the bounds of the level:
