So PC gamers, do you remember the first trainer you used? Mine was for GTA Vice City, I didn't even know what trainers are back then, I think it was called "Pizzadox" or something. What was your first trainer?

I think it would have been for Dawn of War 1

I think it was for Sid Meiers Pirates.

Alien Breed on the Amiga, trainer by Fairlight. Had to Flash copy my game and then overwrite the header track on the disc with the trainer.

But that gave options to do so, you could get already activated options even before that on 8bit computers.

My good old ZX speccy and Green Beret, had to type it all out which got me started into the whole computing scene, how they managed to code something that would load up the speedlock loader and hack it to inject your own code to change code when the game finished loading via cassette tape. Good ol' days

Dear shibby where you just on tinychat :P

i remember my commodore 64

games came on cassette

you inserted the game in cassette reader
and pressed run on keyboard
also you could run programs from tape with load "program name",8

big fun

first trainer i used for that machine was a cartridge called action replay
which could let you "train" some games, unlimited lives, walk thru walls
you had to download first the needed trainer code for the game itself
then program action replay with it, to use in game

I remember i did that with dragons' lair

my first trainer i used on the MSX 2, for metal gear solid ^^.
aldo later i used to screw settings in the game and so screwed the game itself ^^.

I still got the old manual for the first metal gear ever made

HA lol i played my cassete games on a msx 1. ow and floppy's were used for commodore me thinks cant remember me using cassetes on that computer type... must be a early type commodore
