No one likes a cheater, especially in video games. Throughout gaming history, certain titles and developers have found clever, and sometimes cruel, ways of making you regret your unfair actions. Here's a list of games that uniquely punish players for being a cheater cheater pumpkin eater.
Mike Scott was accused but never actually punished for cheating. Scott Halleran/Getty Images Although you could say that it didn’t matter in the end for the New York Mets — they won the 1986 World Series over the Boston Red Sox — they were still pretty steamed that Houston Astros pitcher Mike Scott scuffed baseballs during the NLCS that.
In addition to listing the different possible punishments and the types of behavior that merit each punishment, school discipline policies usually list the student's rights during disciplinary proceedings. Policies might also list the rights of parents and the powers and responsibilities of school administrators at each step in the process. Game developers gots jokes, son. Like the dudes who hid a racy joke hidden in Super Mario RPG. See what we mean in 21 Video Game Easter Eggs You Won't Believe Are Real. Or check out which game the Death Star appears in to punish you in 5 Hilariously Elaborate Ways Video Games Punished Cheaters. There should be no punishment, for such an act-whether its the guy cheating or the girl cheating. Give 'em the deuces and call it a day. Re: What Should Be The Best Punishment For A Cheating Girlfriend? By otokx ( m ): 3:07pm On May 11, 2011. You want to excite her. The point is to make her see how much she wants you and how willing she is to behave in order to get you. You should start by telling her, “I need to punish you.” This lets her know that you are in charge, you are not asking her, you are telling her what needs to happen next. What will happen next.
Link's Awakening brands you a THIEF
Link may be Nintendo's most moral, princess-saving, evil-smiting swordsman around—but that's not to say the Hyrulean is perfect. While he is, overall, a pretty moral tunic-sporting dude, he's been known to get a case of the sticky fingers every now and again. Cheat game earn to die 2012 part 2.
In the fourth installment of Nintendo's Legend of Zelda series, Link's Awakening, players who fail to resist the call of their inner kleptomaniac in the Mabe Village Shop are punished by means of a permanent guilt trip. Instead of being tracked down by the authorities or receiving some sort of physical punishment, Link's Awakening asks you, upon exiting the shop with your stolen goods in tow, if you're 'proud of yourself'—before renaming the hero 'THIEF.' At first, this new moniker is makes us feel guilty, sure. As we progress through the game, however, the constant reminder of our past crimes detaches us from who we really are. We stop feeling like Link, and feel more and more like THIEF. And that's not a good feeling.
There's no way to remove the Hyrulean scarlet letter once it's been branded. After all, you know what they say: once you go Thief, you never go back. And, for the record, you don't want to go back to the Mabe Village Shop—the shopkeeper will kill you.
Banjo-Kazooie deletes your save file
Some single-player games have little tolerance for cheating. Banjo-Kazooie is one such game.
In Rare's classic 3D platformer, there are good cheat codes..and there are bad cheat codes. Entering legal cheats in the Sandcastle is totally fine, and the player receives no form of punishment. Entering illegal cheats, however, results in Grunty straight-up deleting your save file—but not without warning. Once you start toeing the line, Bottles justly give you a heads up to knock it off. Ignore your buddy Bottles, and you can have fun starting the game over. From scratch.
Everyone hates having their save file corrupted or accidentally deleted. But if you cheat and ignore the game's warning, then you really had this punishment coming.

Donkey Kong 64 becomes permanently unplayable
Some might sayDonkey Kong 64 was virtually unplayable, because it's a dull and tiring 3D platformer, which boils down to little more than a collect-a-thon. Cheaters, however, found the game to be literally unplayable, regardless of their opinions on the title's merits.
Users of the Nintendo 64's third-party cheat cartridge, GameShark Pro, experienced an unpleasant surprise when applying cheats to Donkey Kong 64. Apparently, using any GameShark code in the title causes Donkey Kong to experience uncontrollable muscle spasms. Furthermore, the GameShark corrupts your save file, preventing the player from picking up any item, and resulting in perpetual one-hit deaths—effectively rendering the game unplayable. Even worse, saving the game after applying a code will permanently damage the game cartridge. (Permanently! As in, forever!)
Of course we don't condone cheating, but this punishment is just plain cruel, and unusual.
SimCity cripples you with debt, or disasters
Being a mayor ain't easy—and when the going gets tough, it's hard to resist the lure of fast cash. However, like a teenager with a credit card, irresponsible loan-taking yields disastrous results.
In the classic city-building simulation title SimCity 2000, players have a variety of cheat codes at their disposal. Typing in 'FUND' during gameplay awards the player a loan, which carries a staggering 25% interest, all but ensuring the player is permanently enslaved to the banks. If cutting deals with evil Wall Street bankers isn't your bag, you can admit to being a filthy cheater by typing 'imacheat' during gameplay, adding a cool half-million to your bank account, which, despite admitting to your moral flaws, increases your chances of disasters—particularly plane crashes. If you're only looking for a quick-and-easy $250, players can type 'cass' during gameplay, though the money comes packaged with an 85% chance of having a disaster—which is pretty harsh, considering you probably can't even be able to buy a current-gen game console for that much.
SimCity 2000 all but defines the saying: 'cheaters never prosper.'
A Death Star destroys your buildings in Afterlife
Afterlife is a city-building video game in which the player assumes the role of a Demiurge, tasked with constructing and managing the infrastructures of both Heaven and Hell. In other words, if Dante Alighieri made SimCity, this game would be the result. Except, Dante didn't make this game—LucasArts did. And what good would a LucasArts game be if it didn't have a touch of Star Wars?
At any point in the game, players can enter a code and receive one million pennies — the game's currency. However, Afterlife has a pretty sweet surprise in store for those who feel the need to abuse this privilege. Cheating too many times in Heaven or Hell results in everyone's favorite planet destroyer—the freaking Death Star!—paying a visit to your city..and not for just some tea and a chat. Darth Vader's trillion-credit death moon straight-up obliterates your post-mortem locales into a galaxy far, far away.
Screw natural disasters like earthquakes, floods, or fires. Catastrophic destruction by Death Star is the punishment we're looking for.
Guild War 2 publicly shamed a notorious cheater
Generally speaking, cheaters in massively-multiplayer online role-playing games are usually banned, plain and simple. One particularly notorious hacker in Guild Wars 2, however, wasn't merely banned—he was made an example of.
After three weeks of unfairly dominating, and allegedly hacking, the game's player-versus-player competitive mode, the character known as J T Darkside paid dearly. After receiving a plethora of complaints against the character, game security lead Chris Cleary shared a video of the offending player being publicly humiliated. First, the player was stripped naked and walked to the edge of a tall building. Next, Darkside was forced to wave, before plummeting to his death. The video continues to show Darkside, as well as another character tied to the account, systematically deleted. The account was then banned.
Not everyone agrees that this public humiliation was proper. But if you ask us, the cheater got what was coming to him.
Marvel vs. Capcom 3 rage quitters must play together
Rage Quitter: noun, one who quits a competitive match in an act of rage. Nobody likes playing against these despicable sore losers, especially because rage-quitting sometimes results in the match statistics not being recorded—thus rendering the whole thing a total waste of time, and that much more despicable. Capcom doesn't take too kindly to this kind of behavior, and came up with a clever way to punish these poor sports.
In Marvel vs. Capcom 3, proven rage quitters were banned from playing competitively against those who accept defeat with grace. Instead, sore losers are only able to play against others of their own kind, resulting in some hilarious, hypothetical 'who will quit first' scenarios. This system of punishment is highly popular with the online fighting community, and is something many players feel should be implemented in all games where rage-quitting has a negative impact—which is most online games.
Nobody's perfect. We've all had our moments where we give in to the temptation to duck out of a match early in an effort to preserve our record or ranking. But there's a special place in Hell for habitual rage quitters—as well as a special place in Marvel vs. Capcom 3.
H1Z1 developer made cheaters publicly apologize on YouTube
On one fateful Monday in 2015, 23,837 cheaters were banned from the popular massively-multiplayer online survival game H1Z1: Just Survive. Daybreak Game Company president John Smedley took to Twitter afterwards to provide a creative and unique way for some banned players to regain their privileges. 'Dear Cheaters who got banned,' wrote Smedley, '[m]any of you are emailing me, apologizing and admitting it. Thank you. However. You're doing it wrong. If you want us to even consider your apology a public YouTube apology is necessary.' This apology hit some players where it hurts the most—the internet.
More than just talk, Smedley took the banning and unbanning of players very seriously, going so far as to re-ban players who subsequently made their YouTube apology videos private. In a game all about online competition, there's no room for cheating, and Smedley made that crystal clear.
Grand Theft Auto V blew up cheaters with an unsuspecting car bomb
Rockstar once punished some Grand Theft Auto V online cheaters in the most GTA way possible.
In 2015, some shifty players found a way to bring the massively-overpowered, single-player-only Duke O'Death vehicle to Grand Theft Auto V's online mode. Rockstar wasn't about to have any of that, so they quickly resolved this exploit with a hilarious patch. Instead of having the patch simply remove the illegal vehicle, or suspending accounts, unsuspecting cheaters were treated to an exploding car bomb upon entering the unfair Duke O'Death—killing their character, as well as providing a nice little jump scare. Not only is this method of doling out punishment funny, it's both fair and playful at the same time, illustrating Rockstar's classic sense of humor.

Lara Croft explodes
Assuming you actually played Tomb Raider 2 instead of keeping it hidden under your mattress, there's a good chance you used cheat codes. There's also a good chance you made poor Lara explode.
No one is quite sure of the exact reason why Core Design's polygonal platformer featured the ability to make Lara Croft spontaneously combust. Some theories exist it was put in place to counter fake nude codes—which don't actually exist—in order to make those who entered them feel instantly ashamed. Perhaps a more plausible explanation is that the exploding Lara code was simply a punishment for those who incorrectly inputted the all-weapons or level-skip codes, which are quite similar to the combination of inputs required to make Lara burst into an array of limbs and body parts—which each subsequently explode, themselves, upon impact.

We prefer to think the developers included the code to make prepubescent boys frantically shut off their PC, hide behind their couch in shame, and never tell anyone about what happened.
Ever since the beginning of games, people have been finding ways to unfairly gain the upper hand. These cheaters sometimes get away, but that’s almost always not the case. Here are 8 times that hackers, match-fixers, aimbot-users, and even screen-cheaters got caught red-handed.
KiD x – Overwatch
KiD x, a top-200 Overwatch player and high profile streamer on the Korean server, was banned for using an aimbot. However, this ban didn’t happen in privacy- KiD x was streaming when the ban hammer fell. His use of an aimbot wasn’t hidden at all. Blizzard found out almost immediately and shut down KiDx’s account mid-stream. Blizzard has a zero tolerance policy when it comes to dealing with cheaters, so KiDx’s ban is permanent.
Darksider- Guild Wars 2

In ArenaNet’s MMO Guild Wars 2, cheaters were not tolerated. One look at the case of player Darksider will let you know that they meant business. Darksider was a notorious hacker- he terrorized the MMO’s PvP zones for weeks. The player’s character was impossibly strong, nearly impossible to kill, and had the power of teleportation. The player was reported thousands of times before the head of security for the game took control. He seized the Darksider’s account (and all accounts associated with him) and humiliated him. He took control of the avatar, walked him up to a high place where all could see, stripped the character naked, made him wave goodbye, then sent him falling to his death (and a permanent ban). There was some controversy about ArenaNet handling the hacker problem unprofessionally, but there’s no denying that it was hilarious.
League of Legends Match Fixing

This one is the 1919 World Series of eSports. In the finals of the MLG 2012 Summer Championships, Team Dignitas and Curse NA shocked the crowd. Instead of a normal match, the game was played “All-Random, All-Mid” where each of the players picks a random champion and both teams only play in the middle lane of the map (which has 3 lanes and a jungle). Dignitas and Curse met before the game and decided to split the prize money regardless of the outcome, and settled on playing a game of “ARAM”. The cheaters were of course found out, and MLG disqualified both teams. No one was banned, but the final was a disaster for MLG, who were just trying to put on a respectable professional competition.
Player Killer – Red Dead Redemption

In Rockstar’s Red Dead Redemption online, cheating isn’t outright punished. Rather, the game turns against you. If a player racks up enough player complaints (from things like hacking), Rockstar will brand him or her a player killer- a title that carries a lot of weight. The punishment makes it hard to find friendly people online and comes with another, more brutal stipulation. You stick out like a sore thumb to both other players and NPC’s- you have a permanent wanted level.
D1ablo – Call of Duty 4
People play on each other’s accounts all the time. Sometimes it’s just for fun, sometimes it’s to “boost” (also cheating) someone. And other times, it’s to let another player play for you in a sanctioned Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare competition. FatGames, a COD team, decided to try to pull off one of the dumbest cheating attempts of all time. They gave one of their new players (who hadn’t been playing long enough to compete, based on league rules) the login details of the player he was replacing on the team. They got caught and turned in immediately. Both D1ablo (the new kid) and the person who gave him the login details (Stat) were banned for 6 months and the league deducted major points from FatGames.
Azubu Frost – League of Legends

At the League of Legends World Championships in 2012, Korean team Azubu Frost was caught cheating the old-fashioned way- peeking at the other team’s screens. Okay, while they didn’t ACTUALLY look at their opponents’ screens, but they did occasionally peek up at the big screens situated above them, which displayed the locations of everyone in the game. Their cheating resulted in a massive scandal and a fine of $30,000. You can check out more proof of their cheating here.
KQLY and SF – Counter Strike: Global Offensive
Similar to the KiD x incident, this scandal involves high-profile players using aimbots. Professional CS:GO players KQLY and SF of Titan and Epsilon, respectively, were caught using aimbot software in late 2014. Both teams “removed” (read: fired) the cheaters from their teams. Even though KQLY used the software for a week outside of competitive context, he was still punished. This debacle led to a bunch of other bans- some justified, some not.
Youtube Apologies – H1Z1
Credit: Daybreak Game Company
This one is pretty damn funny- the developers of H1Z1 went on a massive ban spree after reports of thousands of hackers came to light. After the bans, many of the cheaters sent messages to them asking for forgiveness in hopes that they’d be allowed to play again. The developers decided to lift their bans, but only on one condition- anyone that wanted back in had to make a youtube video explaining what they did to deserve the ban in the first place and then apologize for their actions. You can check some of those videos out here and here.
Sometimes gamers are falsely accused of cheating, like the time this Battlefield 1 Sniper Was Accused of Cheating after Releasing Unbelievable Kill Compilation
Hackers used FIFA to steal money from EA
A jury in Texas found Anthony Clark guilty of “conspiracy to commit wire fraud” after he and another three hackers found a way of mining in-game Fifa currency and selling it to other players. The thing is that EA makes money off of these coins so deciding to interfere with their in-house business kind of means you’re directly stealing from them. Because these hackers weren’t the brightest bunch, they transferred the money directly to their bank accounts so you can see how simple it was for the authorities to find out who they are.
Police Pressing Charges against Cheaters in Sudden Attack
When you decide to cheat in a video game you have to make sure you don’t make any money out of it, because otherwise you’ll be legally facing charges, similar to the FIFA case. Two seventeen-year-olds and one college freshman were making millions of yen from posting and selling cheats online until the developers of Sudden Attack received complaints regarding the cheats so they decided to call the police and report the ongoing scam. As a result, the group of “businessmen” got themselves a couple of charges for online fraud.
