Cheating goes way back in video games... but what does it even mean to cheat? And is it BAD? Polygon's Jenna Stoeber falls down the rabbit hole of cheating history, from the heady days of Action Replay, Game Genie, and Game Shark... to the terrible modern days of bot hacks in online multiplayer games, and publishers cracking down on players with threats of fines and jail time.
