Cheaping
In various kinds of games: to win, not by cheating, exactly, but by relying on techniques that lack any finesse, skill, or sophistication. Keeping to the letter of the rules, without respecting their spirit. Victory without sportsmanship, but without entering any cheat codes.

B: "Nah, I just play as Ryu and hammer them with Hadoken."

A: "Man, that's cheaping."

CheapES
A GPS navigator that doesn't work as well as you had hoped. It will not recognize what rode you are on, if it is not a main road, and will not recognize certain house numbers or stores.

I really should have sprang an extra $50 and gotten a real GPS instead of this crappy old CheapES.

Cheap
A tactic available in a game which is loved and loathed in equal measure. people who abuse a cheap tactic would call it "effective" as it is available for use in the game. As effective as it may be, abuse of a cheap tactic can detriment skill at a game as cheap tactics do not usually require a great deal of skill to utilise in the first place. People can also become reliant on it to win, further detrimenting skill. Cheap tactics tend to proliferate themselves as people adopt a cheap tactic to counter the same cheap tactic used against them (esp. the combo in Halo 2). The debate about a particular cheap tactic can become never-ending, due to the mixed opinions on the debate of cheapness vs effectiveness.

Counter-Strike -The n00b cannon --Kills with pretty much one hit, even when shot in the toe.

Marvel vs capcom 2: Cable's air hyper viper beam is cheap. Playing well with magneto is not cheap as skill is required to be good with him.

Halo 2: Plasma Pistol battle rifle combo aka "The combo"

"ha ha--he's using the combo!- How cheap!"

Cheap
1. a term to qualify a person, action or condition as bad or undesirable. 2. a way to express one's disapointment. Commonly prefaced by "That's so...", "freakin'...", or followed by "...crap."

There may be a guy or girl you see who in the interest of popularity does certain things to make themself look "cool," but in your opinion the things they do are really lame. You may say that this person is cheap. If my computer was to crash in the middle of my writing a long blog I would have said, "What the...? That's so cheap." You may come home after a long day and there is nothing you would like to watch on TV. In that case, TV is being cheap.
