"What? He isn't already?"

Congratulations to BigBossman for making Chronicler, an action that seems to be long overdue. He is a welcome addition to the staff that will help us get some of the messes around here cleaned up.

Our staff help keep our site the best around.

I realized tonight the code request system, or at least the submission part, was broken. I may have been made aware in the past, however for some reason or another I didn't remember. Anyway, it's fixed, so you can request codes again from the game's page. And those of us that sometimes need an idea of what to hack can check out the requests page.

Another user making his way up the ranks... He's helpful to other users, has a high reputation, and is a quick-pull with the hacking trigger. And one of the best characteristics of a chronicler is that he cares about the integrity of the codes on the site and is willing to spend the time to make corrections.

Congratulations to terpsfan101 for making chronicler, who certainly fits the bill. ...and like me is a fan in the Big 10, albeit Maryland :P

Don't everyone PM their requests at once.

So at https://gamehacking.org/system/pc is a new little area for submitting cheat tables, thanks be to DarkByte. It's pretty basic at the moment, but those in the hacker group and above should be able to add tables. I will add features as I can, such as editing and deleting submissions. If you want to submit some tables that you made, and you don't have access, please post in our forums.

Other things happening around here lately... the forums crap out from time to time, we're still trying to figure out that little issue. I made some adjustments with the ps2 day1 codebreaker server, I'm still working on that a bit... although I'm thinking it's hardly used.

I've noticed that the retro gaming scene has exploded in recent years, mostly in regard to hardware collecting and modification. It seems odd to me that it has been somewhat quiet around here amidst the explosion. I don't hear much about cheating at least among the more popular youtubers, but I know there's still an interest as Kevtris recently added the ability to use 6 game genie codes on his Super NT.

There's more in the works, so stay tuned... if that's still a thing

Tony Hedstrom has been a prolific hacker here for a long time; I'm happy to announce that he's now the Hacker Threads forum moderator.

Welcome aboard, Tony Hedstrom!

The forums have been upgraded and redesigned, and the main site has had a theme change to match the new forums. If I may say so myself, they look pretty awesome. Thanks to rimsky82 for a lot of awesome work, and thanks to vBulletin to making a mostly solid product that is sometimes downright infuriating :)

We're still working through a few issues; please let us know if you discover any new ones, in the Under Construction/To Be Added forum.

Happy hacking...

We'll be upgrading and changing themes, most likely to a "Night" theme, in the near future. Stay tuned.

Several years ago, GameHacking.org became the host for l0nk's WiiRd forums. Unfortunately, l0nk seems to have disappeared some time ago, and hasn't responded to email in over a year. Recently he seems to have let his domain, l0nk.org, expire, and thus wiird.l0nk.org no longer functioned. Archive.org did a faulty job of copying it, and many people were asking if anyone had a copy of the forums, which contained codes, guides, and discussions that couldn't be found anywhere else.

Fortunately, thanks to our backup system and some great work by Demonic722, it's now available in a frozen-in-time state here at GameHacking.org:

I forgot to mention it, but for those who don't know yet, GameHacking.org now uses Discord for chat. We also still support IRC, and our IRC channel and Discord main channel are connected via a pair of bots that share chat between the channels. In any case, Discord is the preferred chat medium, and we may in the near future discontinue our IRC channel.

If you haven't tried Discord yet, you definitely should. It's a much more multi-platform-capable system, and you can seamlessly switch between mobile, web, and desktop app, without worry about log configuration and missing conversations in the channel forever :)

We hope to see you there.
