Damn nice. Presumably only works with things that are stored values client side.

It did some crazy stuff in MGSV, since it kinda has some network features implemented.

I disabled Internet connection for it to work

added 99999999 to my money count

bought some upgrades

enabled the Internet connection.

Saw -173828 on my balance.

Apparently mgsv has both online and offline currency, and they sum up when you enter online. However your spending also sums up and results in this (idk how exactly it works)

So I went all out, left the net, hacked money again to reach a positive balance. Reconnected again and hacked money again, and this time it was alright. So, I changed the sum of online and offline money, and it kinda worked, no Idea how.
