During game play, press and HOLD L1+R2+Left D Pad+Triangle+R3 then press Start. Your character will speak to confirm the code has been entered properly. This will make your character level 20 and will have access to all feats. Your character will also have level 1 feats on all class-dependent feats and 75,000 more gold pieces.

How to unlock Gauntlet Mode
Finish the game using any difficulty setting
How to Unlock Extreme Mode
Finish the game using gauntlet mode
Get Drizzt w/o having to beat the whole game.
Get one of your characters to finish "The Gauntlet" level ( use level warp from the cheat menu ). Once you are done, this will unlock the EXTREME difficulty level. Now at the opening menu a new choice will also be available " The Gauntlet ". Start the gauntlet game and you will play as Drizzt... he will easily finish the level if you have the invincibility on from the cheat menu. Once you finish the gauntlet with Drizzt you have the option to save the game. Make a new save. Now all you need to do is start a new game with the Extreme defficulty mode. Choose your best character ( at this point you cannot import Drizzt ). Unfortunately you do not have anything in your inventory at this time. I suggest you warp to the Gauntlet level to pick up a few potions and the onix sword ( you'll need it ). Remember to turn the invincibility cheat on. Once you are done picking up these items warp yourself to the very last level to confront the final boss. Kill her! ( yeah! I know its a bit of a spoiler but in my opinion getting Drizzt w/o too much hassle is well worth it ). Once you beat the game and the credits are over you can start a new game with any difficulty and import Drizzt as your character. Good Luck.
Quick Level Up
At the beginning of the game press down and hold R2 L1 Left d-pad triangle and Start to access the cheat menu. Then turn Invincibility on and use Level Warp to transport yourself to "the gauntlet" level. Advance as much as you possibly can without running out of time. This level has pretty good monsters to hack and slash and gain lots of experience and gold. But remember, before you run out of time Level Warp yourself again into the Tavern. Keep transporting between the Tavern and the gauntlet until you reach whatever level you want. Once you gain enough levels you could probably make it all the way to the end where an Iron Golem is waiting for you. If you kill it not only you receive tons of exp's but also you can pick up the Onix Sword for some massive damage.... and if you are running short of gold you can sell this sword for over 98,000 gold pieces. Enjoy.
Play as Drizzt
To unlock Drizzt this is what you need to do:
1- Finish the game.
2- After the credits you will play an additional level ( the gauntlet ) as Drizzt. DO NOT SAVE during this level.
3- Once you finish the gauntlet level you will unlock the "extreme" difficulty level.
4- Beat the game again in "extreme" difficulty.
5- Import Drizzt into a new game.
Auto Level up
Press R2 L1 Left d-pad R3.
This cheat automatically takes you to level 20, gives you access to all the feats ( depending on the current number of slots available ). It also gives you level one feats on all of your character's class-dependant feats and an additional 75,000 gold pieces.
Invincibility
Press R2 L1 Left d-pad triangle start.
This cheat unlocks the invincibility option and the location wrap.
Duplicating Items
To duplicate items save your game then drop any items that you want to duplicate on the ground, then press start and go to change player and import your character from the save you just made, it will load your character with all your stuff that you had even the stuff you dropped and the items you dropped are still on the ground.
Rise from the dead!
By using the Import Character function, you can bring a character back from the dead (in a 2 player game)WITHOUT loading a saved game.
When a character dies, Import the same character from the most recent saved file. They will return exactly as they were when saved. Remember that the character will return where they died, so if the character died by falling into a pit, for example, they will return and fall into the pit again.
This is a handy way to not have to repeat tough scenes over again!
Advice For During The Game
Killing Enemies easily: When you are facing an extra hard enemy or boss in Balders gate there are several ways to kill them:
Run around the enemy as if you were trying to make them dizzy and keep hitting them.
If you use a shield then you can block then hit then block then hit etc. It takes time but you don't loose any life if you are fast enough.
Find a doorway and use a shield for the above method. This is useful when more than one enemy is in the next room.
Cheat Menu
To activate the cheat menu during gameplay you press together: R2 L1 left on d-pad and triangle. You then press start while holding them down. This lets you activate the cheats menu.
Extra Exp
To gain loads of exp you can keep warping to sleyvas then Ciraxis. keep killing them for good exp.
MULTIPLY ALL STUFF TO GET MONEY!
Right. What you wanna do is get a rude Onyx sword by doing the gauntlet e.t.c. Get your character up to the best you want (use the cheat if you want (hold Triangle, Left, L1, R2 and press in R3) to get to the swamp1. Buy loads of good and expensive stuff (it doesn't matter if you use up all your money), and save your game. Now drop all the good stuff and import the character you just saved. You will have loads of stuff plus the stuff on the ground! Now do one of two things.
1. Give the stuff to a second player (so anyone can join in at any time and not be beat)
2. Multiply it again and again and sell it to get loads of money to buy really neat stuff.
(P.S. multiply the Onyx sword many a time it is worth al;most 100,000 gold)
BOSSES
Having trouble with the bosses. Here is how to beat some of them.
1.Huge Rat: This is very dodgily fast so you will need to slash at it as it runs at you. The archer is good to keep it at bay. Its weakness is lightning so if you have a lightning arrow then use it.
2. Lizard King
This gut is slow and powerful. If you are playing solo then run around him and slash when you get his back to you. Use acid and fire together. If you are playing two player then one should stand and fire acid arrows and the other should use an axe or a sword and 'hack and slash'
3. The BEHOLDER KING!! This guy stays virtually still and his back is his weakness. With two players he should be easy, but watch out for when he eats you. If you have repulsion this is good to use. Try to saty far away and use arrows and Bull Rush if you are the dwarf.
4. THe Final Boss. This stupid woman's attacks are damn powerful. Kill her! I can never kill her the same way twice, so just go for it!! :)
