Thumbs down Vista Game Chess Titans - cheats


Beware the Chess Titans game lest you think your chess skills are diminishing!

But don't despair - the game CHEATS!

Scenario:

BQ @ a5
BP @ a4
BP @ b5
WP @ a3
WP @ b2
WP b2 --> b4
BP @a4 illegally moves to b3 and takes WP @ b4

I did an undo on the WP b2-->b4 and took some window snapshots of the before and after to save in case anyone was interested in the complete board layout. I guess it thinks the player at difficulty level 1 won't notice!!

Funny. On "Lost" this week one guy claimed that a computer chess game cheats, while the other said that he had been playing computer games for a long time and that they can't cheat. But, obviously computers can cheat in card games by "looking" at the hands of others.

We should not forget that a computer program is the sum of the programmers who wrote it.

I think its stupid on Chess Titans how you can just Edit Undo, when you make a wrong move. I know you could simply ignore it but its hard when the computers kicking your ass . So i say if Chess decides to cheat on you...Cheat back!
