Effects
It should be advised, due to the nature of cheats, they should be used at your own risk. Before entering codes, its advised to create a back-up file of your game, as cheats have a high risk of making adverse effects on your saved file, such as corruption. One should be aware, that most cheats can be de-activated by entering in the code again, but some cheats can't, reguardless of how many times you type that cheat in. Also, in some Grand Theft Auto games, using cheats degrade the player's criminal rating.
