How does the PS2 codebreaker work?

As a cheat device, the Code Breaker is a no-nonsense kind of deal -- it's disc only -- and can go straight into your PlayStation 2 right out of the box. Like many cheat devices and programs available in the current market, Codebreaker uses the PS2's memory card to store new cheats you enter or download from its site. This is both a good and bad thing. Lets us come to the real discussion;

Navigating Codebreaker is fairly simple and easy, thanks to some built in shortcuts. On screen context help scrolls by constantly on the bottom of the screen, reminding you of what buttons do what function and where. The L1 and R1 buttons allow you to navigate a line of code quickly and with good response. The best thing about the Codebreaker however, is that it has a buffer that "remembers" the last line of code you entered, making it easy to enter multiple line codes by changing a few values and digits instead of having to retype the whole line of code. This is one of the trademark abilities for all versions of Codebreaker, the other being some real neat code support. For example, Codebreaker is the only cheat device that regularly include "joker" codes that allow code effects to occur when certain buttons or combination of buttons are pressed.

Codebreaker has an integral device manager that allows you to manipulate your data on a memory card or a USB flash device. For the most part the USB flash device is more for the transfer of PS2 game saves downloaded on line to your memory card (no PS2 game at the moment scans for game saves from the PS2's USB port), another nifty side feature on the Codebreaker. The most surprising thing though, is that the Codebreaker works on various PS2s in varying stages of service life. My version of Codebreaker had some choppy performance on older PS2s and took longer to load on those particular machines. Still make sure that you have the latest codebreaker!
