A veteran Rockstar Games developer has shared the secrets behind Grand Theft Auto 3's cheats (as well as those in GTA: Vice City and San Andreas), how he attempted to hide them from the playerbase, and how that little trick messed with PC speedruns.

This time, his mini history lesson was about the ancient art of cheats, which would only activate on PC after you typed in a specific sequence of characters. Typing "ILOVESCOTLAND" would make it rain, for example.
