The lack of cheats doesn't really bother me, hell I haven't really cared about them since after the SNES days. I think since games have been focusing on being more realistic, they've gotten a bit easier as a result and really don't need the basic cheat code anymore. I can't really think of a single game this generation that made me wish for a cheat code, except maybe when I fought Green Eye in Lost Planet, but other than that they've become unnecessary.
