Dead Rising 2 eGuide Multiplayer Terror is Reality

General Strategies

It’s America’s hottest game show—the spectacle that’s sweeping the nation. It’s “Terror Is Reality!” Who needs population control when hopped-up contestants are ready to slaughter zombies by the truckload for fame and prizes?

Just remember: You’ve got to be willing to risk it all if you’re ever—really—gonna—win big!

Terror Is Reality” is a chaotic show, and a certain level of luck plays into your chances of success. Tip the odds in your favor, however, by keeping the following tips in mind:

1. Play it cool . Although each event is a messy affair, keeping your wits about you is vital. Stay sharp, be strategic, and don’t lose your head out there.

2. Work fast . Keeping your cool is key, but so is speed. Don’t dally about out there; work quickly and decisively.

3. Go for multipliers . Most TIR events allow you to boost your score quickly through multipliers or the killing of special “bonus zombies” — this is vital to success. See each event’s section to learn how to score big in each game.

4. Fight dirty . It’s possible to harass and impede your rivals’ progress in many TIR events. Do this whenever the chance permits to upset your opponents’ game plans, particularly the current point leader.

5. Never say die . Each TIR event is vastly diferent from the rest, so don’t worry if you score poorly in a certain game. The winner of the show will be the player with the highest score at the end of all challenges, so simply strive to remain competitive — you just might come out on top in the end.
