The meaning of this is unclear. It is variously described as ID Kicks beeeeeeeeeeeeeeep , or ID Killer Full Ammo. I went back to the original Doom source ftp://ftp.idsoftware.com/idstuff/source/doomsrc.zip to see if I could resolve this. Indeed the comments in st_stuff.c give definitions for these cheat codes:
IDFA is commented as:
// 'fa' cheat for killer beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep arsenal
IDKFA on the other hand is commented as:
// 'kfa' cheat for key full ammo
So it looks like "ID Kicks beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep " is apocryphal.

The article mentions that the first known cheat code was in the Atari 2600 game Adventure. However, this fact isn't mentioned in the article for Adventure. Anyone know what the code was? Aguerriero 22:33, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

I think that there should be a page on Wikipedia listing video games on which you could click on the name of a game and a video game system and go to another page that shows cheat codes for that game. For example, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe [in parentheses, an abbreviation for a video game system, such as (PS2)], and be directed to a cheat code page for that game that shows cheats for that game.

I think there is too many cheats for Sonic, The Sims, and Medal of Honor. I think listing a cheat under "famous codes", one should also write how it is famous.
I've removed the entire section of cheats. The article should be about cheat codes, not a list of them. Wikipedia is WP:NOT a game guide. There's plenty of places on the net for codes, Wikipedia's not one of them. Also, there's no reasonable & fair way of deciding what codes should & should not be there. It's subjective, & POV. A few links to major cheat sites (GameFAQs etc) will do. Proto:: type 19:01, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
