You're assuming that there IS a cheat for invincibility or extra life
for that game. Certain games just don't have cheats for certain things. Take
for example, SOCOM I and II. The only cheat that I've ever seen that does
not require a Gameshark or Action Replay Max, is infinate ammo. The other
cheats, such as invincibility or infinate health, all weapons or idiot AI,
require a cheat device. Even with all the cheats that are available for use
for SOCOM I and II, there still hasn't been a level select cheat found,
because there isn't one either using a device or just in the game itself.
It's not necessarily a cheat site's fault they don't have a cheat for
the game you're looking for, maybe Buffy just doesn't have a life cheat.
I've noticed the past couple years that there are fewer games that have
cheats that can be accessed without a cheat device than ever before IMHO.

I just want these web site to label tham as such. If a code unlocks

He wasn't 'assuming' anything. He was pointing out that it makes it even
harder to find out if there actually ARE cheats out there for a
particular game when you are always being faked out by those stupid
''complete level A to open Movie B'' 'cheats' that he was talking
about. those are more like FAQs or hints than cheats really.
He was merely expressing a desire for those 'true' cheats (however many
there may be). There is nothing worse than hunting forever for cheats
and continually getting crapola.

Ok, I see what you're talking about now. I totally agree with this point,
unlocking things like cut scenes and stuff isn't a cheat code cuz it doesn't
do anything to help you win the game. There really is nothing worse than
going to a site and only getting things like stuff to unlock cut scenes or
something totally pointless like that. To use an example from what I said
earlier, SOCOM I, I've gone to lots of sites trying to find correct cheat
codes for my GS2 V3 since Gameshark won't support all the codes that have
been found to work with the game cuz they can be used online. A lot of the
sites have things like "hidden" head set commands to give your team to go
into stealth mode, etc. Which isn't a cheat, it's a stupid headset command
that wasn't included in the instruction manual, and most of them don't
really help at all anyway. Also, I've looked forever trying to find a level
select cheat code, only to find "Beat the game on (I think) Lieutenant JG
level to unlock all levels" which isn't a cheat code, it's basically saying
"There isn't a cheat code for this, so beat the freakin game yourself" which
is also pointless to include on a cheat site. If I could beat a level, I
wouldn't be looking for a way around it.

One of the things I get annoyed about is when the cheat
listed is simply information that can be found in the
instruction book.
