Secrets
Skip the entire opening sequence of gameplay on a NG+
Quite simply, if you skip the opening cinematic, you will also skip the Terror Is Reality gameplay section and the subsequent gameplay section all the way up to arriving at the emergency bunker.Slot Machine Secret
When you see a pile of money (100$) in front of a slot machine, you are able to win the slot machine up to five times, then the machine you used will not be won again, until you go into the map (Any casino, or the machines by the Sports Car in the Royal Flush Plaza) again. This works even better if you have any or all of the three gambling magazines.Easy Leveling
To make your level skyrocket to level 50 go out to Fortune Park and head towards the Atlantica Casino. Don't go in. Instead, follow the wall right until you see a maintenance door. There should be a stick of dynamite and a hunk of meat right outside the door. Pick both of these up head inside and combine them, to get the dynameat. Leave and head right to the fireworks stand. Grab some firecrackers and jump up on top of the stand. Lure a large amount of zombies near you using the firecrackers, then when you feel your group is large enough, jump into the middle of the crowd and use the dynameat, and get out quickly. The resulting explosion will cause your PP bar to go through the roof with points. All of the items respawn when you leave Fortune Park and come back so you can do this as many times as you like. This trick is still very effective at levels 45+.Magazine Duplication
To do this you need at least one other player. Start up a save and grab a magazine you would like to duplicate. Now have your other player do the same in their own game. Both save the game. Player B joins Player A and drops the magazine and leaves the game. Player A saves the game. Now Player A has two copies of the magazine! You can do this over and over again to get up to twelve of the same type. So, if you have 12 bargaining magazines the price at pawnshops drop 120%! Or you could get 12 driving books and have your SUV indestructible!
