Taking the pointless fun of the achievements system to a whole new level, Fable 2 is offering up achievements for doing pretty much anything, including some deviant sexual and violent acts. The full list is here.

They range the gamut from “The Swinger,” earning 5 gamerpoints for engaging in a “responsible” orgy (virtual condoms?), to “The Hunter,” giving you 5 gamerpoints for killing a defenseless little bunny.

I can’t say I’m thrilled about this development and don’t really like to go out of my way to do extra things in games outside the main plot events, but for fans of more open games like Fable, it makes total sense to reward those who go the extra mile to explore all the possibilities of the world.

In lieu to British magazine Games(TM), and due to being stumped on a coming article, I give you a little dose of real-life equations which, unlike real equations on your last calculus paper, could be fun and related to what has been going on in the past years. Because if you can’t make fun of the videogame industry, who can you make fun of (apart from politicians and celebrities)?

More to come, so stay tuned.
