Features

Though previous versions of the PlayStation 2 Code Breaker were plagued by limited functionality, later versions were lauded for features such as a simple, uncluttered menu and "typing" systems. Version 9 added support for USB keyboards.

Unlike other cheat devices which store cheat codes on proprietary storage devices, the PlayStation 2 Code Breaker stores codes on memory cards, thus cutting down on manufacturing costs. Codes and saves can also be copied from USB flash drives. The device's official web site, , provides codes posted by the former Game Shark Code Creators Club. Codes can be downloaded from the official web site using the device's "Day1" feature. Later versions include support for the PlayStation 2's Broadband Adapter and internet chat.
