PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) has identified Fable II as the most animal-friendly game.

The group hosted its sixth annual Proggy awards for companies, people and products for animal-friendly activities.

The game was given the 'Most Animal-Friendly Video Game' award because of its vegetarian stance. "It's a vegetarian's dream come true… In this virtual fight between good and evil, characters powered by tofu are just as powerful as their meat-eating counterparts - and are more fit and attractive to boot," according to PETA.

"Featuring a strong pro-vegetarian theme, eating a plant-based diet helps you rack up 'purity' points, whereas eating meat makes your character fat and evil. A fun and innovative game, it's also an effective tool that teaches gamers the real-life benefits of a vegetarian diet."

PETA recently criticised Cooking Mama for using meat in the majority of its recipes.
