FAQ
How do I open the console in a PC game?
There is no single key. Most games use the tilde (~) key below Escape, some use F1 or a different key, and a few need a launch option or a setting switched on first. The guide for your game names the exact key and any step before it.
Do PC cheats disable achievements?
In many games they do, either for that save or until you restart. Every guide has a warnings section with what we found for that specific game, so read it before a run you care about.
