It's funny how cheat codes stick with you. I still remember "zippybobbypin" from Rescue Raiders, which, it turns out, wasn't exactly right:

Yeah, it is crazy that some cheatcodes are still memorable even decades later.

I still remember the cheat codes from the RoadRash game:

k'thunk! => hit with the club thwack! => hit with the chain drip!drip! => oil And last, but not the least.. spoon! => Nitro boost!

There's later game Road Rage and Road Redemption, which are like tributes to the "bikers on death-race" mayhem we gamers fondly remember as Road Rash.
