If that sounds like a gaming sin, know that I’m a product of my generation. Back in the 2000s, when GTA was on a PlayStation 2 hot streak, cheat codes were very much part of the experience. I didn’t know a single person growing up who played through a GTA story as intended. Instead, my teenage pals exclusively played it as a sandbox shooting range. While that means that many kids of the era perhaps missed out on Rockstar’s brand of American satire, those cheats taught us to appreciate the pure craft of an open-world video game that begs to be dissected.
