So before I was hit with nostalgia and began collecting a few short months ago, I was the opposite of a collector, which explains why I gave away all my old stuff. Now that I have started collecting and have a "not too shabby" collection so far I find myself playing on these older systems more and more.
Before all this collecting it was simple, load up the PS3 and play Call of Duty, or load up the Wii and play Wii Sports, or hop on the PC for some beautiful visuals. During that time the PS3 dominated my gaming habit, and I was playing online constantly. Once I became aware of all the cheating going on, that's when things changed for me.
My first way of dealing with the Call of Duty cheating was to get Battlefield Bad Company 2 the day of it's release, and surely all the cheaters will stay playing Call of Duty, yeah right. It did not take too long before I was overwhelmed with blatant cheaters on Battlefield (my absolute favorite fps series by far).
Well Red Dead Redemption came out and that worked out well for awhile until I started to notice people cheating on this game as well. WTF! That was about how I was feeling at this point.
I had a great idea at this point, what if I play an older online game, surely the cheaters have moved on from Call of Duty World at War. It turns out I was dead wrong, there is still tons of cheating on that dinosaur albeit awesome game.
With all of these attempts to dodge the online cheating it has just made it overwhelmingly obvious that it is unavoidable, and so if I want to avoid cheating online I have to stay offline. This is where it has become appealing to just stay offline, game offline. If I want to have fun playing multiplayer, it'll have to be split screen I guess.
I did make some attempts to try to get punkbuster on the consoles, but that most likely will fail, whatever I give up. All this means is that multiplayer stats are meaningless...which is sad because the whole point of keeping stats was to keep track of how well you are doing, but with all the cheating that is right out the window, so why bother at all?
