10 Video Game Cheats Everyone Used

10. Unlock All Weapons - Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

Grand Theft Auto fans have always loved the series' various "unlock all weapons" cheats, though GTA: San Andreas boasts such an expansive arsenal of guns, explosive devices, and melee weapons that they're actually divided across three separate cheats.

The first cheat will unlock "basic" weapons such as simple melee objects, pistols, shotguns, smaller machine-guns, and a rocket launcher, while the second code unlocks more advanced equipment such as knives, sniper rifles, and flamethrowers, and the third gifts you the chainsaw, fully automatic rifles, a heat-seeking rocket launcher, and even remote explosives.

The input method varies across platforms, but no matter what you played San Andreas on, this trio of cheats were the codes that allowed players to fully harness the deranged wish fulfillment the GTA games are famed with offering.

Though many of San Andreas' cheat codes can result in the game being rendered unstable - especially those where you give the pedestrians weapons or force them to riot - the weapons cheats simply enable your most chaotic, carnage-filled desires.
