If you run around, there are a couple OJ's and weapons such as a pipe wrench, moose helmet etc (watch out for fireworks that spit out of the floors). Go in for a hit or two and dodge away.

Does the end game change depending on if you give
Zombrex or not?
I did, but I assumed he would have done the same if I didn't.

To beat
TK
Make sure you heal before going through the door, if you get munched by some zombies and are down to 2 bars of life when you start fighting the boss you will start with 2 bars (not a good idea)
Hit him a few times, when he jumps off the edge run and grab the spotlight/lead pipe and as much food as you can before he gets back.
Keep whacking him with the pipe/spotlight, hit him 2 times then roll away (L3 for PS3), don't bother going for the moose head and food in the fireworks sections, not worth the hassle unless your desperate.
Ignore the crank with the girls on it as its highly unlikely it will get low enough for them to be in trouble *unless* TK kicks it to make it go down fast.
I was level 34 when I beat him.

If the host has a USB drive, have them use that to save on. My BF and I were having the same problem and we found out that if the host uses the USB instead of the HDD, it doesn't kick the visiting person. Something to do with the HDD causing the the connection to timeout. I ended up transferring my saves to the USB and no problem ever since then.

^ or you can just dropkick him to stun him, beat on him with the wrench, and repeat. Easy.

I think if I do that, he won't want to play with me anymore.
Anyway, regarding the soundtrack, I don't care much for the psychopath music, just as I didn't in the first game. It all sounds like generic rock, metal, and rap to me. All of them are completely interchangeable, as none of them "fit" the theme portrayed by their respective fights. For example, they should have used some kind of western-sounding theme for Seymour (the cowboy psychopath).
Still, at least nothing comes anywhere close to being as bad as the godawful rap that plays when you face the convicts in DR1's central park.

So I've only played the game in dribs and drabs, after all I have my Halo rank to think about, but this is all I have to say:
Fuck how hard psychos are in this game. Seriously. The worst is when you stumble on one by accident without benefit of being able to save first and get your ass handed to you.
Other than that I'm enjoying it.

Finally decided to double dip on the PC version... wow. Night and day. Zoning takes less than 5 seconds every time (yes, even Fortune Park which is like 40 seconds on consoles), performance is sex, visuals are significantly improved (but still a little lacking in the texture resolution dept.)... so good.
The only problem I seem to have is with the depth of field in the cutscenes. For some reason, the camera is always focusing on the foreground.. even when there's nothing there! Therefore, people that are obviously the focus of the shot are extremely out of focus and blurry. Is this just me?

Me either. I've managed to win it twice though (I do play a fair bit of poker IRL, which helps).kyo_daikun said:I didn't know the books effected the poker game hands, I knocked them all out without them anyway
Unrelated, am doing the 72k kills achievement now. \o/
1: Yes, it would be a total I win button otherwise.dorkimoe said:
2: Only keys, PP, money and combo cards.

Yup, need to keep the magazine on you to get its effects.
Your level, PP points, Money, combo cards and notebook entrys carry over.

duckroll said:Errr... yes? I don't even know why you have to ask. Do you have to keep a weapon or food item in you inventory for you to use it later? If so that's stupid!!! LOLOLOL. Wut?
Poor chuck and his rubbish memory, he can't remember anything he read even 5 minutes ago :lol

If you didn't need to keep magazines, you could spend the first five minutes of the game going to bookstores and breeze through the rest.
He needs lots of room for thinking up psychopath death puns.duckroll said:

Yeah because no other game in the history of games, you read a magazine and got a skill/skill point :lol
I assumed you had to keep it. Just wanted to make sure. I should pick them all up and pile them in my safe house haha

Awesome. I was wondering when Amazon was going to send over that pre-order bonus, I really want my super slicer avatar item already. The $10 credit is great though. I already got $10 for the pre-order, so another $10 will be great with New Vegas coming out soon.xero273 said:

It's shite on PS3 controller as well, got me killed plenty of times in Psycho fights as its pretty unresponsive.
It's kind of funny to read this thread after this game turned out to be awesome. Man, people had some really nasty things to say about this game before it came out. Blue Castle delivered and I really hope to see the solid sales numbers it deserves.
I can't wait to jump back in after work. I've been grinding Terror is Reality for some fast cash, I'm halfway to getting the keys for the sports car at the mall. It's gonna be sweet.

Has anyone tried messing around with the trainers that cap the time limit and make your weapons unbreakable, etc?
They work as advertised with the retail release?

I don't think it counts the people that are already "saved" in the safehouse which is like 7 people so you need 57 saved at the end or something.

Im just assuming that's what it is, im like you and ended with 54 saved and never got it, I didn't check when I hit 10 saved.

Seems people are already modding the PC version. Just basic stuff so far like model and texture swaps but this one which adds all the best weapons to your safe house should come in handy:

Yeah, I mean the reaction in that thread was the result of some poor pre release media, so you can't really blame them. Still, I always love a good underdog story so it's very nice to see this game defy it's negative expectations. As far as I'm concerned, this is the sleeper hit of the year and Blue Castle are the Rocksteady Studios of the year.
Can't stop gushing about this game.
