Dead Rising 2 Cheats

Admit it, you sick bastards. You’ve been waiting your entire lives for the opportunity to attach virtual chainsaws to a virtual kayak paddle, and go slaughter some virtual zombies. I knew it! Thankfully for you, Dead Rising 2 was invented. Picking up where CAPCOM’s 2006 bloodthirsty action-RPG left off, the game promises more of the inventively gory zombie-killing we’ve come to love, along with high production values and full complement of reverent hat-tips to shuffling-undead classics.

A new item combination system explains the Kayak-chainsaw monstrosity above, and the design team has recently unveiled a deliciously demented gladiatorial multiplayer system, which allows competing gamers to try to outdo each other as they hew through the slavering horde.

Below you’ll find a full walkthrough, along with achievements, trophies, and cheats — all you’ll need to survive infested Vegas. Good luck, and good huntin’.
