We hear all the time about the “gamification” of everyday tasks. You do something, and some computer awards you points, generates a leaderboard, or at least shows you some sort of meter. This is why the Prius has a digital tree growing in its dashboard.
But to get an idea of just how far some people want to take, Microsoft is testing awarding achievements for coding properly.
Here’s our question: If you manage to game the achievements system, or manage to hack it and give yourself all the achievements without doing anything…does that unlock an achievement?
