No longer free

I'm not sure when the change came to be but cheat engine is no longer free. The author is selling licenses to use it for $200/month. ```` —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.124.95.249 (talk) 04:56, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This was simply a joke created by Dark Byte. It was April the 1st when this happened. Rather obvious I thought. --roflmaowek (talk) 05:14, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Should we add a section for Cheatengine forum?

Should we add a section for the cheatengine forum due to it's involvement in Cheatengine's improvements and technical support or does it deserve a seperate article?--roflmaowek (talk) 05:17, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Trojan-infused

Perhaps someone should add that the malware "Control Center" comes free with every download of Cheat Engine? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.170.158.68 (talk) 22:33, 9 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No it doesn't. At least from cheatengine.org, the official webpage 69.136.72.16 (talk) 23:01, 29 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

How

how do i use Cheat Engine!? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.214.100.6 (talk) 16:10, 9 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You won't find that on wikipedia. Go here for help: http://forum.cheatengine.org/, and do the built in tutorial for CheatEngine. --Avindra talk / contribs 17:12, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Language

The programming language is listed as English and Lazarus -- I thought it was C?J.Dong820 (talk) 00:42, 11 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah I noticed that and was about to post about that... someone probably didn't understand what that meant... we should probably fix that.--Gurgle528 (talk) 03:49, 26 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I see that too, and find weird... also, Lazarus is not a Programming language, is an IDE, the language is Object Pascal, so if confirmed that its writen in C, is better correct soon :) Flavio.mprado (talk) 07:02, 1 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
