Heck no, what are ya, messed up in the head? I seriously cannot think of a single truly great game that features cheats in any form (aside from the occasional exploitation of a glitch or two). On the contrary, the hallmark of any great game is a lack of cheats. I think one of the numerous things that sets Halo above and beyond most any FPS is the fact that Bungie didn't sink to offering cheats. Besides, as many people have already stated, if you can't beat the game on easy you must be playing with your feet or something. Lack of cheats not only keeps you constantly on your toes, but also allows for much more fun in discovering those hidden little secrets (Warthogs in insane places, for example). Beating the game on Legendary or getting to the bottom of the canyon in Halo (the second level) would simply not be as glorious, because any little pig could go to gamefaqs and figure out how to be invincible or have unlimited ammunition. If Halo 2 features cheats I would not be surprised to see a large drop in sales, simply because cheats make it less fun and add contestability to bragging rights.
