OK I have some old game on the PS1 and once I founa a cheat called DEBUG mode for it. What exactly is DEBUG? I looked it up on Wikipedia but I still don't understand anything about it.:cursing: Can anyone enlighten me on the subject?

Debugging, from it's actual definition, is essentially the act of fixing code that is broken (in very general terms). In your case, you're referring to a feature in the game that allows the player to experiment with the game mechanics. The best example I can think of for this was in Sonic The Hedgehog for Sega Genesis. If you do a search on YouTube for Sonic 1 Debug Mode, you should find some examples of what I'm talking about.

Let me know if you need a better explanation.

Only if you know what you're doing. . .

You may want to check out Super Smash Bros Melee for a better example. . .just search that and debug. ..you'll find something, if not there then Google.
