Borederlands 2: Electric Boogaloo

Borderlands 2, like any game out for the 360, has a long list of Achievements. Some are hard to come by, and others are ridiculously easy.

Here’s some of the most retarded:

1. Up High, Down Low

   Gave Claptrap a high five

   15 UNLOCKED ON 09/10/2012

The description give you all the details you need to know. There’s a, “Y,” button option when you try to talk to Claptrap, and he’ll encourage you to, “High-Five,” him. You melee his hand, and you get an Achievement. Why? Because coming up for Achievements for a game is hard work.

Well That Was Easy

Completed the mission "Shoot This Guy in the Face"

10 UNLOCKED ON 09/10/2012

While doing a story mission in Slab territory, I noticed the, “!” on my radar. I went up to a bandit called, “Shooty McFace,” who asked me to shoot him in the face. I obliged and got this Achievement. This was also a mission as well, which came with rewards.

Sugar Daddy

Tipped Moxxi $10,000

10 UNLOCKED ON 02/10/2012

This Achievement is easy, as you accumulate tonnes of money in the game with not enough to spend it on. Buying guns at the vending machines is kind of pointless when you can find a new gun every two minutes. It also eludes to you being able to collect Moxxi’s, “Good Touch,” and, “Bad Touch,” two SMGs. One is essentially a vibrator, with the added bonus of turning your XBox controller into a factual vibrator. Like, you can actually masturbate with it… Not that I have….

Tribute To A Vault Hunter

Got an item from Michael Mamaril

15 UNLOCKED ON 02/10/2012

This Achievement is easy to get. You simply have to find Michael and take a freely offered item from him. There’s a lot of back story to this seemingly random NPC. He was a Boderlands fanatic in real life who died of cancer, and they put him in the game. So it’s like he’s haunting you from beyond the grave. It wouldn’t be creepy if he didn’t suddenly appear and then vanish, unlike other NPCs. I found him in the headquarters in the Sanctuary after a story mission while working with a full group online. I don’t know if one of those reasons made him spawn, or if he’ll ever respawn inside the same game again.
