I did my first hacking when I was 14 years old on the PS1 game Yu-Gi-Oh Forbidden Memories.
The game saved the cards you had in hexadecimal format, so if you knew the codes for each card, you could edit the Memory Card files to add cards to your deck. I remember I could add all but 3 of the cards to my collection, even cards that could never be obtained (and existed in the game only to tease you, I guess).
Good times. But life goes on I guess.

I know, but I've chosen a different path. It's not something I'd enjoy doing anymore.

Memory Hacking is not scripting.

i remeber OllyDbg.
It was fun

Hacking is any modification of a system that's unintended by design. It's fun to pull apart how a system works and make tweaks to change it to your liking.

Feel free to elaborate at length as to how using a program to change memory in a PS1 game is any different than using hardware that performs the same function.

Hacking is: Playful solving of technical work that requires deep understanding, especially of a computer system.

How can you do this kind of stuff for a living? This kind of shit seems super-interesting instead of the OWASP pentest bullshit.

ah yes hex edits. for kids who were too poor for gameshark/action replay/modchips but still wanted to tinker with their game. had to use it to get the fake gald in tales of vesperia ps3 years before there was custom firmware cheats.

It's extremely difficult to get anyone to pay for software, at least in my experience. Getting hired to write software is far easier.

hacking for a living? better off doing it as a hobby. the people who do it for a living end in jail for blackhat crimes. the people who do it for a hobby eventually get picked up as whitehat people. think of MVG (Modern Vintage Gamer) on Youtube. he started off hacking xbox and tinkering with emulators, eventually he got a job making actual games.

you should check x64dbg then; it's pretty much the same with far more features/more stable (and it supports ScyllaHide too)
