To Change Options For A Code You’ve Entered
Highlight the code and press left/right on the D-Pad. Most codes have more than one setting, so cycle through the options until you’ve seen them all. The settings that are active when you exit from the Secrets menu will be used in the next game you play. Code settings remain in effect until you change them or turn off your PlayStation game console.
