Did not unlock in local play

@Riley achievements/trophies like this one don't unlock in local play. You need a second account on the same console and switching between the two accounts - this applies to both xbox and ps.

This will either require some luck with the A.I, a friend, or a truly terrible opponent.
Playing as white:
* e4, e5
* Bc4 Nc6
* Qh5 Nf6
* Qxf7#
It's best to get this with a friend who is willing to help, as I tried this using the local-player game mode and it didn't work.
