Fairytale Fights has 'Kill 1,000 Children' Achievement (for now)

I LMAO at the pic. xD

this looks like my kind of game!!!

Memories of lighting children up with a flamethrower in Fallout 2...ahh memories.

OMG finally a game for rebels like me! My 'rents are so gonna flip
when they see me playing it. I hope it comes with a pack of candy
cigarettes and a temporary tattoo so I can blow their motherf'in
minds!

After reading the comments section of the PS3 BC post I may get this trophey in real life.

hurry someone call Jack Thompson

Awesome Sauce

So.. how long till the next killing spree is blamed on games?

And they say video games set bad examples.

*rolls eyes*

"Will somebody PLEASE think of the children!"

The best kinds of kids to hack into little bits are the ones with the big, doe eyes.

I love the premise and setting, looks great. Just wish it didn't look so much like LittleBigPlanet with blood. Its going to be completely different i'm sure but the pic with the platforms and the one with them jumping reminded me of LBP a little too much.

Children killing achievements?

SOLD!

Yes please!

so they're going to make an entire game where you kill children....but it's not until there's a specific achievement for it that people start to get their panties in a twist?

.....what!???

omg Circle of Dead Children should so write the soundtrack!!!

\\m// ^_^ \\m//

Moe Szyslak: The children! Would somebody think of the children!

There's nothing more stress-relieving that killing virtual children :)

change that to teens and then it will be ok'd by parents

"As such, you still can kill 1,000 children, but you'll need a pencil and paper to keep score."
Holy crap, this made me laugh like crazy.

Seriously, who cares if the achievement is about killing children? I'd be pissed if there was public backlash over that. It's a freaking joke in a video game, it's not even close to putting a giant message on the box and saying "Kill little kids" PUT THE ACHIEVEMENT IN THE GAME I SAY! (it'll be fun)

I'm really sick of all this, "zohmygawd killing kids is illegal" that's in every game. You get into games like Fallout 3 and Fable 2, which promise complete freedom with what you can do in the game. Then you get to little lamplight and want to massacre every single child there (because the character you're playing is evil, and it's something HE would do, but you have no desire to yourself of course) and it won't let you. Whats the big effing deal? I know the media is obsessed with the fabrication that everything we see in a game, we try in real life. But come on now.

I get to kill digital children?!

Some of my classmates better thank their lucky stars they aren't in this game.

At the effect of not sounding "cool" I'll say I think it's a bad achievment and game. I'm not against GTA games and all that, I play it but I don't like this with the kids issue.

If the game sells only BECAUSE you can kill children in it that is really stupid. Comments like "Children killing achievements? SOLD!" and "There's nothing more stress-relieving that killing virtual children :)" aren't good, and if that's your only reason for buying the game you might have serious issues.

if people read the actual fairy tales they'd know it was par for the course

I would kill the children of a thousand planets just to see you smile.

What?!

Remember when games where FUN without the whole: "hey killing is the coolest mechanic that could ever be implemented in a video game EVER" thing happened?

I blame the fourteen year old kids whose neglectful parents by them "mature" games.

Having a child will influence your views on this. I do. Though I must respect the developer's right to exercise their creative freedom. This means I only have to tolerate it, not like it. It comes off to me as juvenile and based around shock. The graphics though are far too goofy to be taken that serious and that is why I am not that bothered by this.

I'm not entirely sure I agree with the other commenters who apparently relish the thought of killing 1,000 children. Is that really something you want to achieve?

I can understand the restrictions in games which mean that you can't go around killing children in a similar way that you can't make them fall in love with you and then... well hopefully you get my point. If you desire true freedom in a game world then you're requesting the developers program actions which are horrendous (regardless of if it's real or not) and seeing they may have kids, that's not particularly fair. Admittedly it can be a bit annoying when you're restricted in games, but over something like the ability to kill a child, I'm not too fussed, it's not particularly something I'd find enjoyable/entertaining in a game, and isn't that the main point of games.

Perhaps if there where major consequences for killing a kid, such as being labelled a child killer and having the wrath of everyone in the game world come upon you leaving you to hide among the most putrid and repulsive characters left in the world who applaud you decision, resulting in a less than enjoyable game experience, maybe then it could be an acceptable thing to have in a game.

Anyway, I'm not entirely sure if the ability to kill kids is really the crowning jewel on any game and thus completes it.
