Oh, sweet controversy! Tongue-in-cheek hack-n’-slash gameFairytale Fightsmay be the very first console game to reward playersfor murdering kids, including as it does an Xbox 360 Achievement for killing 1,000 children. At least, it does rightnow. Whether or not it makes the final cut is up for debate. We reckon it won’t.
Publisher PlayLogic isn’t too hopeful either, but it’s trying its best to push the Achievement through. It has promised that even if the Cheevo gets cut, playerswillstill be able to murder hundreds of children in the game. Quite what Sony and Microsoft will have to say about that when the game heads to PS3 and Xbox 360 remains to be seen.
If, by some dark miracle, the Achievement or even the killings make it intoFairytale Fights,you can prepare for an absolutely sh*tstorm of controversy. People will hear about this, and it will explode the mainstream media. Get ready for that, because it’s going to be a classic.
Seriously though … this is awesome. Can you believe it’s being made inGermany?
