0. Introduction [SEC00]
Hi, you can call me Shigmiy64, and this is my achievement guide for Dead
Rising 2: Off the Record. I don't know about you, but I just love hunting
achievements, and the Dead Rising series is one of my favorites. The first
Dead Rising was the game that got me started on achievement hunting, and my
enthusiasm hasn't abated since.
I have the Xbox 360 version of the game, so throughout this guide I'll
reference Xbox 360 terminology and controls. However, for the sake of our
Playstation 3 brothers and sisters, I've also included what kind of trophy
you'll get on each achievement's PS3 edition equivalent.
Got a question/comment/feedback? Notice something I missed, or a mistake?
Know a better strategy than the one I listed? Feel free to shoot me an email
at shigmiya64 AT gmail DOT com.
1. Photography Achievements [SEC01]
-=*=-
Adult Content (Bronze): Take an extremely erotic picture (Story or Sandbox)
You need to earn over 1000 PP with a photo in the Erotica genre. The easiest
way to do this is to head to Uranus Zone, collect about 6 Alien Probes and
drop them in a pile, and then take a picture of them. There's an Alien Probe
dispenser in the second kiosk on the right when enter Uranus Zone from
Fortune Park, though just taking a picture of the rack of probes in the kiosk
will also give you enough PP. But if you're not having any of that weirdo
deviancy, you can also just take photos of provocatively dressed female
survivors. You'll probably need to have two or three together plus some
Photography magazines to score enough that way, however.
-=*=-
Raw Emotion (Bronze): Take a photo of a survivor in a very dramatic situation
(Story only)
You need to earn over 1000 PP with a photo in the Drama genre. Any survivor
in a photo will count as Drama. There are several opportunities to take
photos worth 1000 points of Drama on their own; the easiest one to get is a
picture of Snowflake eating a steak while you work on taming her. The only
other two I know of worth that much are Lillian crying during the case Family
Feud, and Marc and Earvin hanging from the railings in the Palisades on
September 26.
If none of those are readily available, a survivor following you is worth
about 100 PP, so if you collect a large number of followers at once, grab
several photography magazines, and take a photo with them all in frame with
some zombies in the background, you can reach 1000 PP. (Remember that the
genre of a picture is determined by the genre of the most valuable element in
the photo.)
(NOTE: Pictures of survivors hugging, etc. prompted by the yellow camera
symbols above their heads will NOT count, because the genre of those photos
is Special.)
-=*=-
Photo School (Bronze): Take a high PP value picture (Story or Sandbox)
Here, "high PP value" means 1000 PP. You'll have several opportunities to get
this right off the bat; when TK hands Brandon the money case works, when
Shaun and Tom are banging on the shutter to the left right after the outbreak
starts, and when Lucas prepares to shoot himself as you round the dividing
wall in the Arena. After that, a good way to get it is to find LaShawndra and
Gordon in Royal Flush plaza after starting Case 1, reunite them, and
photograph them hugging. Failing all that, any picture of large groups of
zombies exploding or slipping on gumballs, for example, should also be worth
enough. And naturally, you'll earn this achievement alongside Adult Content
or Raw Emotion if you don't have it already.
-=*=-
Full Camera (Bronze): Fill your camera's memory (story or Sandbox)
Photo Journalist (Bronze): Get back in the game by gaining lots of PP from
pictures. (Story or Sandbox)
Just take lots of pictures. You need to take 30 pictures total for Full
Camera, and earn 10,000 PP from photos for Photo Journalist, but it's really
a moot point. If you're hunting achievements (and since you're listening to
me, that seems likely), you couldn't NOT earn these in the process of getting
all the other ones.
-=*=-
BFF (Bronze): Use the Snapshot skill on a zombie (Story or Sandbox)
The Snapshot skill is unlocked while leveling up. You should earn it very
early, before level 10, though the exact level can vary. Once unlocked,
perform it by holding the Right Trigger and pressing the Right Bumper with a
zombie in front of you. Frank will grab the zombie and take a funny photo
with it worth at least 250 PP. This also kills the zombie. Somehow. Just do
it once to unlock the achievement.
-=*=-
Camera Crazy (Bronze): Take a picture of a psychopath (Story or Sandbox)
Just take out the camera and snap a photo of a psychopath during a fight.
Note that the psychopath needs to be actually trying to kill you for it to
count; if you're in Story Mode and happen to photograph a psychopath before
the point in the story you fight them, it won't count.
-=*=-
Making Memories (Bronze): Take a picture of your co-op partner (Story or
Sandbox)
Your co-op partner will be that survivor that doesn't follow your commands
and that the game won't let you leave behind when changing areas. Try to take
a picture of them while they take a picture of you to earn themselves this
achievement!
NOTE: XBox 360 players will need an XBox Live Gold subscription to play co-op
and earn this achievement. Playstation 3 players don't need any sort of
special subscription to play co-op.
-=*=-
Mixed Messages (Bronze): Take a picture with elements of horror, brutality,
outtake and erotica in a single shot (Story or Sandbox)
Horror and Brutality are easy to get; virtually any photo with a zombie in it
will have Horror, and any picture with elements of violence will have
Brutality (zombies with missing limbs, zombie gibs, blood spatters, sharp
objects that have been thrown at a zombie and are stuck in them, etc.)
Outtake and Erotica require a little more work. For Outtake, find a bucket,
Hunk of Meat, or a mask from a Toy Store, and tap X in front of a zombie to
stick it on their head for hilarity. For Erotica, either a poster of Juggs
or Uranus Zone featuring cleavage will do, or a Massager or Alien Probe item.
Find some way to get all these elements into one picture and this one will be
yours. Personally, I put a mask on one zombie, threw a knife and a Massager
at the zombie standing next to him, then photographed them together. I later
discovered that a Stick Pony, stuck in a zombie with its Strong Attack, will
give you Brutality, Outtake, and Horror all at once.
-=*=-
Nice Shot (Bronze): Photograph 1 PP sticker (Story or Sandbox)
Photo Album (Silver): Photograph 25 PP stickers (Story or Sandbox)
Award Winning Photography (Gold): Photograph 75 PP stickers (Story or
Sandbox)
Scattered throughout Fortune City are PP Stickers stuck to various landmarks.
They look like little round black and white camera symbols. When a PP
Sticker is in frame, a bar at the top of the camera will fill up to show you
how many points you'll earn from the sticker if you take a photo right then.
You can earn up to 1000 PP from one sticker if you get the angle and zoom
level right; typically this is done by taking a nicely-framed picture of
whatever object the sticker is stuck to. However, you only need to get 1 PP
for the sticker to count. Once you've earned any amount of PP from a
sticker, it won't give you any more PP for that playthrough, and a green
checkmark will appear on the sticker itself. Once you've gotten enough
stickers to show that checkmark, you'll earn the respective achievement.
YouTuber PowerPyx has helpfully provided a video showing where to find 75 PP
stickers for the three achievements:

2. Survivor Achievements [SEC02]
-=*=-
Cramped Quarters (Bronze): Get 8 survivors into a vehicle at once (Story
only)
Sadly you can't take advantage of the fact that the SUV is gigantic to get
this; it only holds 3 survivors plus you. You need to use the clown car for
this one. It appears in the Silver Strip by the Slot Ranch Casino entrance
during the first day, then moves to Uranus Zone by the end of the rock wall
that separates the Fortune Park and South Plaza entrances after that. One
also appears near the entrance to the Fortune City Arena in the Platinum
Strip after your receive the mission "Snow Job." Any time you have 8
survivors with you at once, head to whichever of these locations is available
and get in, then watch your group pile into the back. You should have no
trouble getting 8 survivors on the first day as long as you don't return to
the safe house.
Note: 8 survivors is the most survivors that can be out in Fortune City at
one time. If a scoop contains enough survivors to put the total number of
survivors in the city over 8, that scoop will not start.
Note 2: I don't know why, but even though he won't join you, the looter that
paces near the entrance to Moe's Maginations waiting for you to talk to him
during the mission "One Man's Trash" counts against the 8 survivor limit.
Make sure to do this mission as soon as possible when going for this
achievement.
Note 3: Snowflake won't get into any vehicles. Don't bring her for this one.
-=*=-
Tiger Tamer (Bronze): Have Snowflake attack and damage a Psychopath (Story
Only)
First, you'll need to get Snowflake in your party. Head to the Yucatan
Casino any time during the first day or early in the second to trigger the
fight with Ted. Kill Ted (he's easy, just hit him until he goes down) while
avoiding damaging Snowflake. With Ted dispatched, grab all three steaks in
the tiger enclosure. One is on a rock, the other two are on top of a ledge
near the statue. (Man, Ted really wasn't that bright, huh?) Next, head to the
blackjack tables near the tiger enclosure. Drop a Steak on the ground, then
run away from it. Keep the steak you dropped between you and Snowflake, and
when Snowflake charges you she'll get distracted by the steak and eat it, as
long as you aren't too close. Do this three times to get Snowflake to full
health, and she'll join you.
With Snowflake on your side, all you need then is to find a psychopath. Your
first chance will be at 3:00pm on the first day, the fight with Chuck during
"People Like Us." However, Chuck might kill Snowflake before she can hit
him, so if you want to be safe, wait until 10:00pm on the first day for
"Tastes Like Chicken," the fight with Antoine.
Both will work; as soon as Snowflake lands a hit on either psychopath, you'll
get the achievement.
Note: Do NOT return to the security room after getting Snowflake before you
get the achievement; Snowflake is unique among survivors in that she will
follow you between areas no matter how far away she is from you. If you plan
to progress through the story on the same playthrough, don't visit the
Yucatan until AFTER completing all parts of Case 1.
Note 2: Snowflake is also unique among survivors in that she is a tiger.
-=*=-
Powered Up (Bronze): Restore power to the Yucatan Casino (Story Only)
Remember that guy in the cinema before the fight with Ted who ran away from
Frank? After defeating Ted and taming Snowflake (or killing her, you
monster), go to the lounge behind the reception desk between the Palisades
Mall entrance and the Silver Strip entrance. Lenny's hiding in there, and
once Ted and Snowflake are dealt with he'll show you how to turn on the
power. Follow him to the room by the elevators and press the button like he
tells you to turn on the power and earn the achievement.
-=*=-
No Zombies in the Vents (Bronze): Unlock the secret shortcut (Story Only)
This is unlocked when you complete the mission "Wilted Flower." You'll
receive it later on during the second day. To complete the mission, head to
the Venus Touch in the Palisades Mall. You'll find a survivor in the back
room who needs something to drink. If you don't have anything, you can find
some coffee in the main part of the store. After quenching her thirst, carry
her up to Brand New U on the second floor of the mall. The secret passage is
in the middle dressing room in the back.
Of course, the survivor tells you all this herself, so don't fret if you
forget everything I just told you.
-=*=-
Party Time (Bronze): Get a survivor drunk (Story Only)
Feed a survivor two alcoholic beverages one after another to make them vomit
to get this one. They'll only accept food and drink if their health isn't
full, so give them a sock on the jaw before each drink if they have full
health.
-=*=-
Team Player (Bronze): Avert a mutiny (Story Only)
The only mutiny I know of is Snake in the Grass. After rescuing Richard from
the mission Hunger Pains, you'll eventually get the call for Snake in the
Grass. Richard is experiencing some lady-related "tension" and needs the
Erotica magazine to "subdue" the "beast" within him. The magazine in question
is found in Hot Excitorama in the Silver Strip. Deliver it to Richard for
$100, then another $4900, then the achievement.
-=*=-
Alpha vs. Omega (Gold): Have Denyce attack and damage Sgt. Boykin (Story
Only)
Ah, this is a tricky one. Denyce is the pharmacist you find in Roy's Mart
during the very first case, and Sgt. Boykin doesn't appear until Day 4.
You'll have to have Denyce join you, then avoid getting her into the Safe
House for practically the whole game. Denyce has the most health of any
survivor, so you have that going for you, but you'll need more than that.
First, grab the Leadership magazine. That will make survivors much more
effective combatants. Next, make sure to arm Denyce. The best weapons for
survivors are guns, and the best gun is the Six Shooter. You can get a Six
Shooter in Uranus Zone; enter the Galactic Experience store (marked on the
map as "Coming Soon!") and go up the stairs to the second floor. Break
through the windows and head to the right towards the giant robot. Climb on
the robot's right arm and follow it to the ledge on the opposite side of the
gap, towards the midway. Then head to the left and climb through the window.
Look around in this area for an opened trap door. Drop through it to find
yourself in an employee break room. Here you'll find the key to Security Box
764; head to the bank and open it up to find a Six Shooter.
Now, what I like to do at this point is to keep gathering survivors. One
survivor won't be able to fight off zombies for long when you leave them
alone, but 8 can stay alive rather well, especially armed. Just keep
recruiting survivors until you have 8 that can hold guns. If you find one
that won't use a gun, just kill them. Don't worry, the blood will come out of
your clothes. You won't have to worry about their temperament thanks to the
Leadership magazine. To arm them, I prefer machine guns. You can find an LMG
on the plant-covered ledge near Baron Von Brathaus in the Yucatan Casino.
Assault Rifles can be found in the Yucatan Casino on top of the large
structure near the center of the casino, in the Atlantica Casino on top of
the big blue light fixture covering most of the casino (climb up the rocks by
the Uranus Zone entrance to get up there), and on the ledge in Uranus Zone
you walked on to get the Security Box Key (jump to the next ledge on the same
side from the robot's arm instead of crossing the arm to the other end of the
area). Merc Assault Rifles can naturally be taken off of mercs once they
start appearing. And if you still need more guns, the Shotguns and Sniper
Rifles from High Noon Shooting Range in the Palisades Mall work fine too.
With all that firepower, most psychopaths will be gunned down in seconds.
It's actually possible Sgt. Boykin will go down before Denyce can get a shot
off on him, so save right before heading to him just in case.
Whenever you need to go back to the safehouse, make sure you enter when
Denyce is too far away to follow, and spend as little time in there as
possible, since survivors' health steadily decreases when you aren't in the
same area of Fortune City.
There is one case that deserves special mention: Case 6-1, The Getaway. When
you enter the elevator in the Fortune City Hotel, all survivors in the area,
no matter how far, will follow you to the roof, which you then won't be able
to leave until finishing the case. Once you finish the case, you'll
automatically return to the safehouse, and your survivors will be rescued
whether you like it or not. To avoid this happening, first grab a Quickstep.
Then, leave Denyce and any others in Fortune Park while you complete The
Getaway as fast as possible. (The mercs die in one hit from an Electric Prod,
and the helicopter takes the most damage from large items like Metal
Barricades). After the cinemas, when you've regained control of Frank, down
your Quickstep and make a beeline for Fortune Park. After that, it's smooth
sailing to case 7-2 when Sgt. Boykin arrives.
NOTE: If you choose to gather an armed posse of survivors, this is also a
good time to earn Cramped Quarters.

3. Story Progression Achievements [SEC03]
Drugged Up (Bronze): Take a dose of Zombrex
If you're not dead after 8am on the first day, you'll have this achievement.
-=*=-
Out With the Old (Bronze): Defeat the motorcycle-riding psychopath
This is earned after completing the mission "People Like Us."
NOTE: This psychopath appears in Sandbox Mode as well, but the achievement is
actually unlocked by the cinema following his defeat, which doesn't play in
Sandbox Mode.
-=*=-
Save the Girl (Bronze): Rescue a damsel in distress from the Twin Terrors
This is earned after completing Case 5-3, "Two Girls, One Club."
-=*=-
Save the Girl... Again (Bronze): Save the damsel in distress a second time
This is earned after completing Case 7-2, "The Last Stand."
-=*=-
Technological Terror (Bronze): Destroy a 'harvester'
This is earned during the last case, "The Facts."
-=*=-
True Colors (Bronze): Defeat the mastermind of the Fortune City incident
This is earned after completing the last case, "The Facts."
-=*=-
Save the Girl... Yet Again (Bronze): Save a damsel in distress for the third
and final time.
This is earned after completing Overtime mode. Overtime mode is unlocked
after completing all the cases successfully and giving Zombrex to TK in one
playthrough.
--==<*>==--
4. Zombie Killin' Achievements [SEC04]
-=*=-
Prestigious PP (Bronze): Get over 2,000 PP from a single zombie kill (Story
or Sandbox)
For this, you need the Boomstick combo weapon. First unlock the combo card by
earning Gold on the challenge "Rooftop Massacre" in Sandbox mode. (More on
that later in the FAQ) It'll be right in front of you when you start Sandbox
mode.
Then, build one with a Shotgun and a Pitchfork. You can find a Pitchfork in
a planter in the southwest end of the Palisades, between the escalators, and
a Shotgun in the gun store near that on the second floor. Once you've got
the weapon and its card, just use its strong attack (Hold X) on a zombie. As
far as I know, this is the only combo weapon in the game that can earn enough
PP at once for this achievement.
-=*=-
Safety Check: Failed (Bronze): Use the amusement park rides to kill 10
zombies at once (Story or Sandbox)
There's three rides that can kill zombies in Uranus Zone, but you only want
one: UFO Crash, near the entrance to the Atlantica Casino. Clear out all the
Metal Barricades surrounding the ride, then lure zombies to the ride however
you can. Firecrackers, Fountain Lizards, Fountain Fireworks, the Celebrate
skill, just running around looking delicious, these all work. Once you think
you have enough, run to the console near the ride and press the button to
turn it on and wait for your achievement to pop up. If it doesn't, try try
again!
-=*=-
Prom Night (Bronze): Kill 69 zombies (Story or Sandbox)
Elite Killer (Bronze): Kill 1337 zombies (Story or Sandbox)
Luggage Code (Bronze): Kill 12,345 zombies (Story (Um...) or Sandbox)
Six Digits?!? (Gold): Kill 100,000 zombies (Story (As if!) or Sandbox)
What would a zombie game be without achievements for killing lots of those
zombies? The first two you'll almost certainly get without even trying while
playing through Story Mode. The third is possible to do like that, but
you'll have to just slaughter your way across Fortune City everywhere you go.
The fourth one is *technically* possible to do in Story Mode, but you simply
wouldn't have enough time to actually do it, so we'll stick to Sandbox Mode
there.
Now, killing zombies is fun, and you could certainly kill 100,000 of them
just messing around in Sandbox, but that would take several consecutive days
of non-stop faffing about. No, you've come to me because you want to
slaughter them as fast as possible.
The fastest way to kill 100,000 zombies is to run them over in a vehicle in
the outdoor section of Fortune City (the combination Silver Strip/Fortune
Park/Platinum Strip area). You have two good options: the SUV and the
Slicecycle. The SUV is sitting inside the Shamrock Casino in the Silver
Strip. The Slicecycle is made by combining a Chainsaw and a motorcycle in the
bike trailer next to the Yucatan Casino entrance. The nearest chainsaw to
the bike trailer is on the stage in the Silver Strip between Pub O' Gold and
the Shamrock Casino. Climb up the speakers on the left side (under the neon
letter A) and jump to the scaffolding. The chainsaw is at the other end of
the scaffolding. Then jump off and try to land on a Metal Barricade. I don't
know why, but if you hit one of the Metal Barricades on the ground on the way
down, Frank won't take falling damage or drop the Chainsaw when he lands.
Both vehicles have their pros and cons.
The SUV is slower and less maneuverable than the Slicycle. It needs to build
up speed for a short time before it starts going fast enough to kill zombies.
You also need to buy the key from the Tinkerbox pawn shop for 2.5 million
dollars before you can drive it. However, it's more durable than the
Slicycle, lasting for more zombie kills. Since it's a car, you can't fly off
it from hitting obstacles too fast, and large weapons like the benches, trash
cans, and metal barricades that litter the strips will barely slow you down
if you hit them.
The Slicycle, on the other hand, is fast and agile. You can make multiple
passes on large groups of zombies by driving through once, then quickly
braking and pulling a 180 to make another pass. Thanks to the chainsaws, you
barely need to be moving at all to kill any zombies you hit. You also get 20
PP for every zombie killed on it. But since it's so small, if you hit any
walls or large objects you'll go flying off the bike. There's one particular
wheelchair in front of the movie theater in the Platinum Strip that I hit
CONSTANTLY when riding the bike.
Now, personally I prefer the Slicycle, since it's more efficient, but both
choices work well, and let's face it, eventually you'll probably get bored
with whichever one you pick and try the other just to mix it up. 100,000
kills is a *lot* of zombies. To help your vehicles last for more zombie
kills, you'll probably want to grab the two vehicle magazines. The bike
magazine is in the Underground, near the vehicle access door, by where you
fought Sgt. Boykin. It's on a stack of boxes to the right, with a Servbot
mask on top.
The car magazine is in the Platinum Strip, on top of the movie theater
awning. To get up there, head towards the entrance to the Americana Casino.
Right by the "proper" entrance to the safe house is a snack vending machine.
Climb up it onto the awning over Cash Gordon's Casino, then run and jump from
there across the awnings over Juggs' Bar and Grill and the movie theater. The
magazine is at the very end of the ledge. Without the magazines, your
vehicles will crap out at around 700-800 kills, but with them they'll last
well over 2000.
Once you've got your vehicle and its magazine, start driving up and down the
two strips, plowing through thick groups of zombies. They're especially
numerous by the Royal Flush Plaza and Uranus Zone entrances in Fortune Park,
and the Arena entrance in the Platinum Strip. Once you've killed about 1500
zombies, most of the big groups should be used up, so you'll want to leave
the area and then come back to get the zombies to respawn. If you drive back
to the Silver Strip and go down the ramp to the Underground, you can keep
your vehicle to drive to the new SUV-slash-Chainsaw-for-making-a-Slicycle
that spawns with the newly loaded area. (The Slicycle can also drive into
Uranus Zone to do this)
While you're doing this, keep some good health items and a good weapon handy.
Every couple of days, Chuck will spawn in Fortune Park, and you'll want to
kill him so he doesn't steal your kills and wreck your ride. Rebecca will
also spawn in the Platinum Strip, every bit as tough as a psycho and with an
LMG that can ruin your day. You'll want to be prepared for that. Other
crazed survivors will appear, but none as dangerous as those two.
That's all there is to it! Just keep doing that and you'll eventually hit the
100,000 kills mark. To keep your sanity, I recommend doing it over several
days. I personally set a goal of killing at least 10,000 zombies every day I
had time to play, and earned the achievement over the course of a week.
NOTE: There is a third vehicle option for use here. The bike can also be
combined with a Giant Stuffed Rabbit. You can find one in Moe's Maginations
on the Platinum Strip. For some reason I can't explain, that stuffed animal
becomes exactly as lethal as a chainsaw once duct-taped to a motorcycle.
It's not a *good* option, really; it's slower and less durable than the
Slicycle, gives less PP per kill, and takes longer to make, but it makes a
fun sound when it hits a zombie! And hey, after a while of working on this
you'll probably welcome the change.

5. Sandbox Challenge achievements [SEC05]
Before getting into the achievements, first I'm going to list several items
that will come in handy for several challenges.
Combat Magazines: +10% PP from weapon kills. One is on the outdoor bar at
Luaii Wauwii in the Silver Strip, one is in Stan's Large Print Books & Mags
in the Palisades Mall, and one is in the vault/cashier area of the Slot Ranch
Casino.
Photography Magazines: +10% PP from pictures taken. One is in Uranus Zone, in
the first aid area near a maintenance room, and one is in Robsaka Mobile in
the Palisades Mall. A special one, that gives +100% to Erotica PP instead of
+10% to all, can be found in the men's room in the Slot Ranch Casino.
Juice Boost: All smoothies last twice as long. On top of the large blue light
fixture in the Atlantica Casino. Climb up the rocks by the Uranus Zone
entrance to get up there.
Drinking Magazine: Become immune to vomiting. On a ledge in the Americana
Casino. Head to the second floor of Benny Jack's BBQ Shack, then look for the
Gambling magazine. Jump from the counter it's on to the large square light,
then keep jumping from light to light until you reach the ledge with the
Drinking Magazine.
Quickstep: Huge increase to movement speed. Make by mixing two Wines or two
Milks in a blender. Easily made at the bars in the Atlantica, Slot Ranch, and
Americana Casinos, and in Baron Von Brathaus in the Yucatan Casino.
Repulse: Makes zombies ignore you. Easily made in Rojo Diablo in the Food
Court by mixing a Taco with Chili.
Zombait: Makes zombies want you. Most easily made by blending two Cakes from
Cheesecake Mania. Use the blender in Rojo Diablo.
Wingman: Combine Nectar and a Queen at a workbench. Nectar can be made by
blending two Orange Juices. Queens can be found in the Underground Laboratory
(take the elevator near the entrance to the Silver Strip in the Palisades
Mall), or by drinking a Nectar. Summons a friendly bee that kills nearby
zombies. Make sure to use it by just pressing X, NOT by throwing it!
Super BFG: Combine a Blast Frequency Gun and an Amplifier at a workbench. 3
Blast Frequency Guns can be found in the Underground laboratory. One
Amplifier can be found in the Maintenance room near the elevator to the lab
in the Palisades, and two more can be acquired from the nearby Entertainment
Isle in the same area.
Blambow: Combine a Bow and Arrow and a stick of dynamite at a workbench. A
Bow and Arrow dispenser is behind some glass right outside Shanks in the
Palisades Mall, and dynamite can be found in Kid's Choice Clothing just
upstairs from that.
Remote Mines: Place one of these by tapping X. (Holding X makes you stick it
into the nearest zombie) The first time you place one, a detonator appears in
your inventory where the remote mine was. When you use the detonator, all
placed remote mines detonate. Only remote mines placed by pressing X will
explode; thrown ones will not. Four can be found on top of the large divider
in the Arena; get up there by climbing some speakers near the South Plaza
entrance. Three more can be found in Uranus Zone, if you follow the ledge to
the left after breaking through the windows in the second floor of the
Galactic Experience area.
Lightning Gun: Combine an Electric Prod from Hot Excitorama in the Silver
Strip with a Blast Frequency Gun from the Underground Laboratory.
Laser Eyes: Combine an Alien Mask (found all over in Uranus Zone) with Gems.
(found in the Fortune City Bank, since you're already in Uranus Zone) Be
sure to also get its combo card by examining the movie poster in the Uranus
Zone midway.
Plate Launcher: Combine a Cement Saw and Plates. Cement Saws are common all
over the South Plaza, and astack of plates can be found in the empty store
near the Scaffolding Shuffle challenge in the same area.
Boomstick: Combine a Pitchfork and a Shotgun. A pitchfork can be found in a
planter in the southwest end of the Palisades mall, between the two
escalators on the first floor. Shotguns are plentiful in the gun store on the
second floor in the same area of the mall. You'll also need this one's combo
card; earn gold on the Rooftop Massacre challenge to get it.
Slicycle: Bring a Chainsaw to the bike trailer next to the Yucatan Casino
entrance in the Silver Strip and combine it with the bike in there. The
closest Chainsaw is on the Angel Lust stage, on top of the left scaffolding.
Climb up some speakers on the stage to get up there.
-=*=-
Now for the achievements:
I Got a Medal! (Bronze): Get a medal on a challenge in Sandbox Mode
Challenge Addict (Bronze): Get at least a bronze medal on 10 different single
player challenges
The Challenge Experience (Bronze): Get at least a bronze medal on all single
player challenges
Challenge Domination (Silver): Get a gold medal on all single player
challenges
For each challenge listed, the number of kills next to the name is how many
zombies you must kill in the Sandbox file to unlock the challenge.
-Rooftop Massacre (0 kills)
-Rumble in the Jungle (500 kills)
-Murder on the High Seas (1,200 kills)
-Rooftop Massacre Round 2 (10,000 kills and 22 medals)
These challenges all require you to simply kill lots of zombies however you
can. Just bring a Super BFG or two and fire wildly into crowds and you'll
get gold easily. Drinking a Zombait will lure zombies close to you for
easier killing.
-Chop Suey (350 kills)
For this one, you need to kill zombies by slicing them in two. Bring a Plate
Launcher for this one. When firing it, keep some distance between you and
your targets; if you're too close to your target, the plate you launch will
fly off in some random direction after hitting the first zombie. If you have
about a dozen feet between you and your target, it will keep going after one
zombie and potentially slice a half dozen or more behind it.
-Extreme Off Road (3,000 kills)
-Tunnel of Blood (8,000 kills)
Bring a Slicycle to the challenge start for these, then ride it through the
zombies. You could conceivably get gold on Extreme Off Road with some Super
BFGs and Zombait, but you'll definitely need the Slicycle for Tunnel of
Blood; the zombies just aren't packed closely enough in the Underground to do
without.
-Burn the Bodies! (4,750 kills)
This challenge requires you kill zombies with fire. Bring two Laser Eyes and
use its strong attack while facing large groups of zombies. I only brought
one Laser Eyes when I did this, and I was still able to get Gold by grabbing
a Tiki Torch after it broke, so you should have no trouble if you bring two.
As always, Zombait helps bring the zombies to you.
-Lightning Never Strikes Twice (4,800 kills)
Now you're killing zombies with electricity. Bring a few Lightning Guns and
shoot every zombie you see, and this one won't give you any trouble.
-Silver Strip Smackdown (80 kills)
-Killing Floor (1,000 kills)
-Do Not Try This at Home (1,800 kills)
-Pawned Prestige (4,000 kills)
All of these require you to earn PP any way you can. Grab at least one
Combat book and bring some Boomsticks to each. With each fresh Boomstick, use
the standard attack twice, then use the strong attack until it breaks. Doing
this will earn the most PP possible with one Boomstick. You should reach gold
on all four of these without breaking a sweat. On Killing Floor, the zombies
are somewhat sparse, so you may want to bring some Zombait along to help
gather zombies while you're locked into the Boomstick's strong attacks.
Another thing that can help is the Wingman; open it up at the start of the
challenge and it'll kill zombies near you while you're Boomstickin' for even
more PP. Don't bring it for Killing Floor though, because of the
aforementioned zombie scarcity in that one.
-Shutter Bug (3,800 kills)
For this one, you need to earn PP by taking photos. This one is incredibly
easy. When you enter Uranus Zone from Fortune Park, the second kiosk on your
right will have an Alien Probe dispenser. Fill your inventory with probes,
then make a pile of about 15-20 of them near the challenge start. Then, when
the challenge starts, photograph the pile you made to get gold in one
picture. Anything you do after that is gravy. If you want to get crazy
points, bring all the Photography magazines.
-Balloon Man (200 kills)
-Rule #1 (1,500 kills)
-Scaffolding Shuffle (3,500 kills)
-Fast Food (3,750 kills)
-Robot Race (4,001 kills)
These are all race challenges. What I did was to start the challenge for a
practice run to see where the finish line was and learn a good route. Then,
when I was ready, I drank a Juice-Boosted Quickstep and started the challenge
for real. Repulse can help keep the zombies off your back here, and you can
use a Super BFG to clear out groups of zombies that are physically blocking
your route. Also, for Fast Food, you have the option of bringing the sports
car from the Royal Flush Plaza to help with the first part of the race, until
you need to climb up to the awnings.
-Ijiek Motors Presents... (2,200 kills)
-Tunnel Vision (5,000 kills)
These two are also race challenges, but for these you'll need to bring a
motorcycle to have a chance at winning.
-Crowd Pleaser (300 kills)
-Party Hard (2,500 kills)
-Killer Rides (3,500 kills)
For these, you need to lure zombies to a specific location. For Crowd Pleaser
and Party Hard, you just need to get X amount of zombies into a certain area.
For Killer Rides, you have to get the zombies to kill themselves on a theme
park ride. My preference is the Orbital Oscillatron; it can take a few
tries, but you can use the Dodge skill to get inside the perimeter of the
spinning cars. Once you're in position, down some Zombait or use the
Celebrate skill to get zombies' attention and lure them to you. Don't be
afraid to move around within the goal area to reach more zombies. These
shouldn't give you too much trouble.
-Stiff Back (750 kills)
This one needs special consideration. For this challenge, you have to
collect Massagers and bring them back to the challenge start area. I would
definitely wait until you've unlocked all 12 inventory slots by leveling up;
doing it before then just makes it unduly harder. Bring the Juice Boost
magazine and 2 Quicksteps. 2 Repulses can also help, but they're optional. Do
a few dry runs on the challenge to learn the general areas where massagers
spawn. Once you've got a decent grasp on where you should be looking, drop
all the items you're carrying in a spot where you can find them. They won't
despawn unless you leave the Palisades, so they'll be safe wherever you leave
them. Make sure that you put the Juice Boost magazine and your Quicksteps and
Repulses separate from anything else so you can grab them in a hurry. Next,
start the challenge and fill your inventory up with Massagers. Once you have
12, cancel the challenge.
Now it's time to earn gold. Start the challenge, and drop the 12 Massagers
you have from last run in the goal. Grab Juice Boost and one of each of your
smoothies and down them both, then drop the Juice Boost again. Next, run out
and collect 12 Massagers, bring them back and drop them. Grab Juice Boost and
your remaining smoothies again, drink 'em, drop the magazine, and go out and
grab 12 Massagers again. At this point you should be 4 away from gold, so
make one abbreviated run after dropping off those twelve and you should just
make it back before times runs out.
Once you have gold, you can take a photo of all the Massagers you collected
to earn Adult Content, if you haven't already. Your stuff will also still be
waiting for you wherever you dropped it, so don't forget to pick it up.
-Thirst Quencher (2,000 kills)
This challenge is to drink as much booze as you can. Bring the Drinking
magazine for this one; if you don't have that (or wear the full Sports Fan
outfit), you'll spend far too much time vomiting to earn gold on this. Before
you go for gold, you should do something similar to what you did for Stiff
Back: drop everything in your inventory except the Drinking magazine. Then,
start the challenge, fill up your inventory with all the booze you can carry,
then cancel.
Start again and immediately begin drinking the stuff you're carrying. Once
you've done that, head to Sipparello's and start cleaning it out of liquid
courage. Once it's dry, go to the theater (hopefully you didn't decide to do
this challenge while Reed and Roger are out). After emptying that place, if
you still need more for gold, run to the poker room for the last few seconds
of the challenge.
Once you're done, don't forget to grab your stuff!
-No Thanks, I'll Stand... (7,000 kills)
Ugh, I HATE this one. To earn gold on this, you have to destroy every chair
you see like a chair killed your family. Collect three Blambows, then fill up
the rest of your inventory with Remote Mines. Before you start the
challenge, place Remote Mines near the biggest groups of chairs you can find.
Since these are Claymore mines, they'll destroy things in an arc in front of
where you place them, not in a round area around them, so be sure to put them
at the edges of rows of chairs facing in. Once all your mines are set, you
can start the challenge. Immediately detonate your mines; hopefully you'll
get 20-35 chairs right off the bat. From there, travel around the casino
shooting your Blambows at any chairs you find. Try to aim for the ground next
to the chairs; if you hit the chairs themselves the arrows will often bounce
off them and explode too far away to destroy anything.
Be prepared to load a checkpoint lots of times until you earn gold. (That way
you won't have to go out and collect more Remote Mines and Blambows if you
fail.)
-Mad About Hats (7,000 kills)
This one couldn't be simpler; you just have to put masks on zombies. There's
a Lizard Mask dispenser in Ye Olde Toybox, so use that. You can save some
time by starting with an inventory full of masks, but you don't need to do
that in order to earn gold. Just go mask crazy and gold will be yours.
-One-Armed Bandit (8,005 kills)
This one is all about collecting money. Now, you *could* bring a few Money
Hackers and Gambling magazines, play winning slot machines and hack ATMs to
get gold here, but there's an easier way. Climb up the rocks near the Uranus
Zone entrance in the Atlantica Casino and find the Money Case on top of the
big blue light fixture. Once you've got it, head to Uranus Zone and then
return to Atlantica to make the Money Case respawn so you can grab it again.
Once you've got seven cases, start this challenge, chuck your cases at the
wall to break them open, and collect the riches that come out. That's it!
-Double Trouble (9,495 kills)
Remember the fight with the twins in Story Mode? This challenge is exactly
the same, right down to the fact that you only need to kill one of them to
win. To win in under a minute for gold, grab the LMG from the plant-covered
ledge near Baron Von Brathaus and the shotgun from the cashier area right
outside the club. Once the challenge starts, pick a twin, walk backwards,
and shoot her until she goes down.
If you wear the full Soldier outfit (earn the pieces by defeating Sgt.
Boykin, buying one from Moe’s Maginations, and finding the last two in Shanks
knife shop in the Palisades Mall and an empty store in the South Plaza), your
guns will have double ammo, do more damage, and have greater accuracy, so
this becomes even easier.
-=*=-
Help From My Friends (Bronze): Get at least a bronze medal on 10 different
co-op challenges
More Help From My Friends (Bronze): Get at least a bronze medal on all co-op
challenges
Even More Help From My Friends (Silver): Get a gold medal on all co-op
challenges
The co-op challenges are pretty much the same as the single-player
challenges, just with different names. Make sure both players are following
the strategies above, and you'll have this in no time. Xbox 360 players will
need an Xbox Live Gold subscription to play co-op. Playstation 3 players
don't need any special subscriptions.
--==<*>==--
6. Miscellaneous Achievements [SEC06]
Best of Friends (Bronze): Defeat 5 psychopaths in co-op
Psychopaths are more easily found in Story mode. If you're not sure if the
chatty fellow with his own theme music trying to kill you counts as a
psychopath, a quick way to check is to change to a new profile, start a new
game, play through the story until you encounter the character in question,
and take a picture of them. If you earn Camera Crazy, then it's definitely a
psychopath!
I'm not 100% sure, but I think you have to do this in one playthrough.
Xbox 360 players will need an Xbox Live Gold subscription to play co-op.
Playstation 3 players don't need any special subscriptions.
-=*=-
Dominoes (Bronze): Use the Jump Kick to knock down 100 zombies
You start the game with the Jump Kick skill, so you can begin working on this
one immediately. Just use it on zombies as often as you can. I'm not sure if
it's the zombie you kick, or the zombies that it flies into and bowls over
that count for this achievement, but either way using the move a lot will
eventually get you it.
-=*=-
Frank West: Cross Dresser (Bronze): Dress up completely in women's clothing
With ever increasing focus on gender equality, the lines between the sexes
become more and more blurry every day. Hopefully, in spite of that, you'll be
able to figure out which clothing options count as women's clothes. Wear a
woman's hat, shoes, and outfit all at once to unlock this achievement.
-=*=-
Hands of Doom (Bronze): Unlock all skill moves
This is basically a "hit the level cap" achievement. Due to the semi-random
nature of level up bonuses in this game, I can't predict exactly when you'll
unlock this, but I got it when I hit level 47.
-=*=-
Maintaining the City (Bronze): Visit 10 different maintenance rooms
</pre><pre id="faqspan-2">
There's way more than 10 maintenance rooms in Fortune City, so you should get
this without trying. I don't know why you wouldn't go in every one you find,
since they nearly always have the necessary components for a fun new combo
weapon.
-=*=-
New Hotness (Bronze): Build one of the combo weapons new to Dead Rising 2:
Off the Record
Build any one of the following combo weapons to earn this achievement:
-Weed Tendonizer (Bowie Knife OR Chef's Knife + Grass Trimmer)
-Bouncing Beauty (Propane Tank + Rocket Firework)
-Pegasus (Stick Pony + Rocket Firework)
-Cryo Pod (Escape Pod + Fire Extinguisher)
-Decapitator (Bowie Knife OR Chef's Knife + Boomerang)
-Saw Launcher (Tennis Ball Launcher + Saw Blade)
-Molten Cannon (Tennis Ball Launcher + Motor Oil)
-Electric Crusher (Sledgehammer + Battery)
-Laser Eyes (Alien Mask + Gems)
-=*=-
Puking Rally (Bronze): Have a zombie slip in a puddle of vomit
Hey, that's what Fausto said in Case Zero! Note that it doesn't have to be
*your* vomit. Just because of the sheer density with which zombies populate
Fortune City, you'll probably unlock this without meaning to if anyone vomits
at any time anywhere. If you want to get it right away, though, you can
drink 3 alcoholic beverages in a row, or eat a spoiled food item, then head
towards a zombie and wait for the magic to happen.
-=*=-
Purewal Memorial Cup (Bronze): Don't consume any meat, dairy or alcohol until
the military arrives (Story only)
There is some debate on exactly which food items can safely be eaten without
invalidating this achievement. For example, I played through once eating only
Orange Juice, Apples, and smoothies and didn't get it, and none of those are
mentioned in the description. What is known for sure is that Orange Juice
won't break it, so just eat nothing but that. Grab the Health magazine from
Hungry Joe's Pizzeria in the Food Court and carry around like four OJs at all
times. There's four of them in Roy's Mart in the Royal Flush Plaza, so fill
up whenever you go by there. Survivors can have whatever; what they eat
won't count against you.
Another thing the description doesn't mention is that you have to finish
cases to get this achievement; drinking nothing or an OJ and waiting in the
safe house for time to run out won't unlock it for you. The achievement will
pop up when you watch the cinema of Sgt. Boykin's team arriving.
-=*=-
We Have a Winner! (Bronze): Play a carney game and win
There's a few different games in the Uranus Zone midway you can play. Buy a
weapon from the spot near each game, then use it to play the game. I'm not
sure if all the games can be technically "won;" I played Mole Men from Uranus
until every single mechanical mole was destroyed and nothing happened. I
ended up getting the achievement by playing the game where you throw hatchets
at asteroids behind voluptuous space ladies, and hitting every asteroid
without missing or hitting one of the women.
-=*=-
Card Collection (Bronze): Collect 20 combo cards
Card Archive (Bronze): Collect 50 combo cards

to receive the Plate Launcher card. Then, after the military arrives, return
to Kokonutz Sports town to find the crew fighting zombies. Rescue Left Hand
Lance for Blazing Aces and Wallace for the Exsanguinator.
NOTE: The Tape It or Die! Crew will count against the 8 survivor limit, so if
there s too many survivors out in Fortune City already the door to their
hideout may stay locked even when it s supposed to unlock. The poker players
usually spawn around the same time; if the door won t open, head to the poker
room in the Atlantica Casino and kill those nutbars dead to free up some
space.

DR2:OTR Trophy Master (Platinum): Acquire all the trophies in Dead Rising 2:
Off The Record
Only including this one for the sake of completeness. Playstation 3 players
earn this trophy by earning every other trophy for the game, same as every
Platinum trophy. There's no equivalent achievement on the Xbox 360 version.
