To players who grew up in the 1980s and '90s, hearing whisper of a second quest in The Legend of Zelda or playing as Akuma in Super Street Fighter II Turbo was a siren's call. Powering up with limitless lives and ammo is only part of the cheat code's appeal-the epilogue in a longer process. I rarely returned to a game after a cheat code had let me see it all." "Cheat codes let you see what you can't access yourself and enable you to draw a line under your time with that game," said Donovan. ![]() Codes empowered players when they got stuck, gave them something fun to share with (or hold over the heads of) friends, and let them explore every nook and cranny. Many developers had no problem with players appropriating their one-time tools. "We'd always have an understanding that they not print the codes in the same issue as they reviewed the game, but to wait one or two issues later to give the game another cycle in the press," said Scott Miller. Usually, publishers handed secrets over with review copies so editors could use them to get out of tough spots, provided they followed one stipulation. "Being a magazine that had the latest information and was one option of many, cheats were as important as the newest reviews or previews-to some readers, more important, because it was tangible and something they could use to prove themselves." After all, the first player to access Sonic the Hedgehog 2's debug menu or trigger God Mode in Doom rocketed to the top of the playground's food chain. "Cheat codes were the currency of cool," agreed Dan Amrich, whose purview at GamePro included answering letters from readers begging for new codes. "The Konami code was the same in game after game, so once you learned it you could use it in the next Konami game you brought, so it became a lot more familiar to players than the one-off codes seen in most games." "Most developers would add a cheat code into their game and then create a new code for their next game," said Tristan Donovan, author of Replay: The History of Video Games. When Konami learned of the code's growing popularity, their programmers baked it into other games, offering different effects-most famously bequeathing 30 lives in Contra-depending on the game. Hashimoto's cheat remained in the final version of the game, and got a buzz going among players and magazines that discovered it. While converting Konami's arcade shoot-em-up Gradius to the NES in 1986, programmer Kazuhisa Hashimoto found the game too difficult and programmed a cheat to give himself power-ups: Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, and Start at the main menu. One developer's oversight was another player's salvation. During those last builds, sometimes people just plain forgot to take codes out." You sent the code off to get approved and it was rejected or approved by the console manufacturer, and that was it. Before paving the road to hell with 1996's Diablo, Blizzard North paid the bills by taking contracts to write games for Sega Genesis and Game Boy. ![]() "The process was very different back then," added David Brevik, co-founder of Blizzard North. "And once you think you have a final gold master of the game, you don't want to open up the code and remove them because that could break the game in some unexpected way." ![]() ![]() "You don't want to take out during the final days of testing because you still might need them," Miller said. However, developers tend to treat almost-but-not-quite-finished games like a house of cards. To the uninitiated, the logical thing for developers to do would be to remove cheats before releasing their game, thereby preventing players from exploiting it. "In Supernova I remember there was a road very early in the game, and if you walked along that road 20 steps, then typed in 'ENTER,' it'd take you to the final third of the game, and your inventory would be updated to include all the needed items to finish the game." Baking in cheats let Miller test later parts of the game without first playing through the whole story. "I added cheat codes to help me develop games," said Scott Miller, founder of Apogee Software (later rebranded 3D Realms). In June 1997, Amrich landed his dream job as an editor at GamePro, and learned how and why codes like DULLARD came to exist in the first place. ![]() ![]() JBL’s larger speakers may need to be powered using a power adapter, rather than a USB cable.

![]() ![]() ![]() Over this basic voice exchange, the five flutes ranging from piccolo to contrabass match one or the other pitch. Over the course of the piece the tones gradually slide toward each other and eventually switch places. ![]() Two independent pure sine tones begin the piece, one in a very high register, and one extremely low. In light of this thematic continuity, it is worth explaining the concept of Almost New York. In fact, Claire Chase’s solo performance itself, unbroken by applause or even a moment to catch her breath, underscored the strength of conviction not only of the performer, but of every composer, of the lighting and sound director, even the author of the program notes (abstracted strings of words “in homage to Octavio Paz”). The Reich and Glass works (19, respectively) are epitomes of this genre, and Alvin Lucier’s Almost New York (2002) carried into the current era the same courage of concept and deliberateness of pacing that characterizes those earlier minimalists. The main stream of the program leading up to Density 21.5, though, flowed through the idea of process music. Du Yun’s Gradient Density began the program with atmospheric algorithmic music, the only piece solely for electronics. In contrast to Leon’s brazenly electronic concerto, Pessoa let Chase draw out veiled and breathy sentiments from the relatively uncommon bass flute. Balter’s Pessoa, written for six bass flutes, came off remarkably well, with five other flute parts recorded and played back using the impeccably executed sound design of Levy Lorenzo. The lighting design by David Michalek shone most brightly here, as the three-by-three arrangement of horizontal fluorescent lights formed a cross, and sharp blue and pink ceiling lights flooded the stage area. The seats rumbled with sub-bass whose speakers must have been placed under the risers themselves the shifting and colored lights came within a fog machine and Hollywood celebrity images of an immersive Universal Studios ride. Luciform, a concerto for flute and electronics written for Claire Chase herself, hit hard with a veneer of Stockhausen, circa Studie I and II. While the Varèse was clearly the concert’s focus both historically and thematically, Mario Diaz de Leon’s Luciform and Marcos Balter’s Pessoa (both 2013) nevertheless gave crisp, fresh definition to the modern flute idiom. The majority of works presented included as many as ten prerecorded flute tracks, played alongside the singular Chase, who sometimes gave the impression that she was in at least three places at once, overlapping condensed ghosts playing impossible harmonies. Now, nearly 80 years later, “Density” was a fitting name for the solo concert for many reasons, not only for Chase’s truly virtuosic performance of the seminal Density 21.5. So named for the density of platinum (in grams per cubic centimeter), the piece was originally written for the première concert of George Barrere’s platinum flute. The oldest piece on the program, and the only one from the first half of the 20th century (written in 1936 and revised in 1946), Edgard Varèse’s Density 21.5 for flute alone. ![]() The flute is one of the most venerable musical instruments we have (the earliest archaeological records have been dated to over 35,000 years ago), and as Claire Chase proved Thursday night at The Kitchen in Chelsea, it retains an energy that ensures it will continue to play a vital role in the future of concert music. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Once you have your TSD Fuel Card, start using it at participating locations to save money on your fuel costs.

So it’s fairly versatile, and at the price, it’s hard to count the XP 2.0 out if you’re on a budget. That said, it also has a quick charging time, and two assist modes to choose from (class 2 or class 3). But the XP 2.0 is nearly twice as heavy as its competition. Lectric XP 2.0 review: CompetitionĪt $1,100, the XP 2.0 is a great deal compared to some of the other folding e-bikes on the market, like the Brompton Electric ($3,400) and the GoCycle GX4i+ ($5,999). At lower assist levels and with less consistent use of the throttle, 45 miles or more certainly seems possible. I burned through about half of the battery life in those ten miles, which is in keeping with the estimates given by Lectric in the owner’s manual. I took the bike out for a ten-mile ride and used the highest assist level possible. To remove it, simply unfold the bike and slide the battery out. It’s a Lithium-Ion, 48-volt, 9.6 amp-hour battery that lives in the down tube of the bike. And it charges fully in about 4 to 6 hours. The battery has a range of 45 miles or more, based on how you use the bike (loaded, unloaded, what mode you’re using, etc.).
