Have you ever hacked any games?

Nah, thought about it once, but I am simply not a programmer/code.
 
Personally, no. A friend did jailbreak his PS3 to help get us all GTA Online cash. This was the time when hackers were everywhere in the online lobbies giving people millions
 
I'll cheat and use trainers and codes only for *single* player games. I never cheat when playing on-line games.
 
Hacking a game isn't really beneficial so I don't bother. The only real reason to hack is to learn, but there's more than one way to do that with electronics. There's no finished project that you can share without it being taken down. It's not how the game was intended to be played, and there's a chance of getting banned.
 
Yep I love hacking the 8-bit Sonic games on the Sega Master System and Game Gear. I've made my own split disassemblies of the games which allows me to easily edit the game's code, sprites, level layouts, etc. I'll admit I'm not good at making tools, so my disassemblies usually take a bit of work to create rom hacks. You need to manually edit certain bits of data in order to get the rom to build properly. :V

I just seen this and Sega is one of the few companies that rarely go after fan games or hacks btw. That's more of a Nintendo problem, there's only been one project that Sega went after for whatever reason and that was a Streets of Rage fan game. In fact Sega gave fans the go ahead to add their Mega Drive hacks to the Steam Workshop! It's dumb when Nintendo goes after fan games and hacks, people aren't making a profit off of it and it just gives the games more publicity. Nintendo isn't losing money on hacks or fan games, they have plenty of money.
 
Well, not the trainer part, but wish they still allowed us to mod offline save files.
A trainer is a third party program that typically uses code injection to allow things in computer games like "God" mode, unlimited ammo, no reload, etc. There is a huge market for them, actually.

But like I said, I only use them in single player/off-line games.
