Right near the safe house is a sports store that has both boxing gloves and mma gloves. The mma gloves can be combined with nails (nails are in the safe house tunnel maintenance room) for tenderizers. I prefer them over the knife gloves.

Painkiller makes you invulnerable to damage for about one real time minute.

Combo foods are created by mixing two food items in a blender. You get painkiller by mixing two beers or two whiskeys or two wines. Both have to be the same, so while mixing two beers and two whiskeys will give you painkiller mixing beer and whiskey together will not give you painkiller. All bars in the games have a blender so it is easy to grab some alcohol and mix it right there.

Quickstep is another good combo drink that makes you run three times faster. I don't recall exactly how you get it in DR2 but it was made from orange juice and alcohol in DR1.



In both DR1 and DR2, it is impossible to save the people at the beginning no matter what.

I think you're thinking of Energizer. Heals you and makes you invinicible for a short time. And I mean very short.

Painkiller just makes it so you can take more hits before losing a bar if I remember.

Oh and the Tiger can kiss my ass. Got the achievement for last night with a buddy but it took us an hour to do.

Oh and also, at least with co-op, you can fail the case and keep playing (it just says the truth is lost forever) and your daughter can die and you can go on

Ah, okay thanks. It's been such a long time I don't remember how DR1 started.

kgrogers1979

Yeah, you are right. Energizer makes you completely invulnerable for 10 seconds and Painkiller reduces damage by a half or a third for a full minute. Painkiller is better in my opinion just because it lasts so much longer.

flashburn

Haha, thanks, that jogged the memory.

I'm about halfway through the game now and loving every second of it. I was just curious about the Tiger Boss. I read that he's supposed to appear the first time you enter the Yucatan Casino, but it's hasn't happened for me yet despite running through there a bunch of times. Is this a glitch or did I have to go in at a specific time?

Edit: Ah, I just read that it can only be done at the start of the game.

That boss was super easy to kill, but i have not been able to kill the tiger.

Deftones

i must be a retard but i couldn't get the motorcycle to jump onto that damn train. any tricks?

Drop

Just stay right as close to the wall as possible and make sure you hit the ramps. If you don't make it on the first try you'll make it in the next.

No one plays Terror in Reality? Been sittings in a lobby for like 10 minutes.

So, I did the train thing finally. So now I need some more Zombrex. I actually had some, but I used the one I got from the EMT to another survivor. Hints on where to find more w/o buying any?

There are four hidden Zombrex in the game. There are a bunch of youtube videos that show you how to get them. I've only found one on my own, but I haven't had time to even look for the others. I'm doing my first playthrough to get all the survivors and kill all the psychos.

Same here, I tried to play last night around midnight on the PS3 and nobody else was playing. Having not read much about it I was flipping through the instruction booklet and it sounds like there's some pretty sweet mini games, can't wait to actually be able to try it out.

I realized by reading this thread that I'm an idiot; I thought you had to have the combo card first in order to combine weapons but it sounds like you experiment to find a combination that works and then you get the combo card to remind you. So far I've only done the Drill Bucket and Bat with Nails I'll have to keep looking for some of the better items.

Deftones

i played TIR yesterday a few times. i suck, but the games are pretty cool. good variety.

Deftones

fucking motorcyle guy is tough. he's got his chainsaws on his bike and i'm trying to hit him with a fucking bat.

Deftones

got him. i actually got him stuck somehow near a wall, so i just kept wailing on him and he was dead after about 7 or 8 hits. booya.

now i'm on the chef boss. another bastard that is tough. grrrr.

Tarantino

The chef boss isn't tough, as long as you have a ranged weapon with you as well as something to smack him with. I posted my strategy above.

Deftones

i ended up having 2 pizzas, the spiked bat and a gun. just kept wailing on him and had enough energy to survive.

Toddarino

I don't know what it is, but it seems like the psychos in this game are generally harder than the first game. I've gotten very frustrated on at least three of them.
