    [size=1]I love to see developers standing their ground in such a matter, so long as it's fair and necessary, mind you.

    It amazes me how lax Nintendo is regarding hackers...

      Would you support Blizzard if you knew they were banning people from using cheats for singleplayer as well?

      Pretty sure I heard that. Which seems to cross the line to me.

        Blizz isn't banning people for using cheats in the single-player campaign. If that were the case, why would they include them?

          I still feel that there should not be a need to cheat. There is no glory in winning when you are not playing with fair odds.
