This Achievement (or Trophy for all you PS3 gamers) requires you to “Have 12 murderous dates with Calendar Man”. This involves nothing more than talking to Calendar Man on 12 different dates – one per month, in fact. Calendar Man can be found locked away in the basement of the Courthouse at the top left of the map.
Below are the dates in order since the game launched:
31/11/2011 – Halloween
24/11/2011 – Thanksgiving
25/12/2011 – Christmas Day
01/01/2012 – New Years Day
14/02/2012 – Valentine’s Day
17/03/2012 – St Patrick’s Day
01/04/2012 – April Fool’s Day
13/05/2012 – Mother’s Day
17/06/2012 – Father’s Day
04/07/2012 – U.S. Independence Day
16/08/2012 – Feast Day of St Roch
03/09/2012 – Labour Day
Please keep in mind that Thanksgiving, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and Labour Day will be on different dates after 2012.
You could, if you’re so inclined, disconnect from Xbox Live and change your system date to match and speak to Calendar Man.
The Assault Rifle counts towards the “He hasn’t covered wars…” achievement where you have to use every type of firearm on a zombie. It’s important to note that the Assault Rifle in question is NOT the same as the Merc Assault Rifle found during the Cases.
The Assault Rifle can be found in the Food Court above Hungry Joe’s Pizza.
To get up there, circle around to the left until you find a set of vending machines against the wall. You should be able to climb on top of the vending machines and jump up to climb on top of the stores. Now all you need to do is run back along the roofs until you’re on top of Hungry Joe’s. The tricky bit is that the rifle is on the awning and not the roof itself so jump down from Hungry Joe’s onto the awning and the Assault Rifle is yours.
Now shoot some zombies and watch the achievement pop (assuming you’ve already used the other firearms).
I recently found a guide to obtain the Zombie Genocide Master achievement.
It’s basically summarised as:
1. Grab the Driving Magazine (This is found at the soda fountain in Bennie Jack’s BBQ Shack in Americana Casino)
2. Use the SUV to kill zombies outside from Silver Strip down to Platinum Strip. You will have to complete the Story Cases throughout though to ensure you get the extra time required from Overtime Mode to hit that magic 72,000 number.
Milestones:
5,000 Kills - 25/09 14:00
10,000 Kills - 25/09 22:30
20,000 Kills - 26/09 10:00
30,000 Kills - 27/09 00:00 (Midnight)
40,000 Kills - 27/09 12:30
53,596 Kills - 28/09 04:00
72,000 Kills - 29/09 05:00
3. (Optional) Grab the Biker magazine in Case 3-2 (On a sofa in the Slot Ranch Casino mission area) if you want to also kill zombies using a chainsaw-enhanced bike.

The Pawn Shops charge incrementally exorbitant prices for Zombrex, but there are 5 boxes of Zombrex just waiting to be found around Fortune City.
Free Zombrex Locations:
- Royal Flush Plaza – The first box is found as part of your first mission at the Roy’s Mart pharmacy.
- Americana Casino – Go to Bennie Jack’s BBQ Shack and climb the stairs to the second floor keeping right. Immediately on your left you can jump onto the light fixtures. Keep jumping across and you’ll get to an area with a cache of goods including some Zombrex.
- Slot Ranch Casino – Find the stage and go backstage. As you do you’ll see some boxes/crates immediately ahead of you. Jump on top of them to find a free box of Zombrex for Katey.
- Yucatan Casion – Search the casino for the Lucky Marble mini-game and climb on top. You should be able to easily jump to the next free medication.
- Underground/Maintenance Area – You will have to head to Maintenance Room 32 underground. Search the area and you’ll be rewarded with yet another free box of Zombrex.
These free caches of medication should allow you to keep Katey and any potential survivors medicated for free without having to line the pockets of the Pawn Shops.
Happy Zombie hunting 
One of the trickier Combo Cards to locate in Dead Rising 2 is the Burning Skull Combo Card. The location of the Burning Skull Combo Card is in fact one of the hidden ones.
To obtain the card you will first need quite a large stash of money (approximately 1 million). Once you’ve amassed the cash head to the Silver Strip area and go to One Little Duck Bingo. Outside you’ll see a fortune teller machine (which is also an awesome reference to the Zoltan Fortune Teller Machine from the movie Big!). Keep inserting money until EVENTUALLY, the Fortune Teller Machine will spit out the Burning Skull Combo Card.
Now celebrate acquiring the Burning Skull Combo Card by taking the nearby bike for a spin over the surrounding zombies 
Dead Rising 2 has one secret achievement to unlock and if you’re wondering how then you’ve come to the right place!
Firstly, you’ll need to mix up some Nectar. Nectar in Dead Rising is created by blending orange juice with orange juice. You can find blenders in most bars and food courts around Fortune City.
Next up you’ll have to capture one of the Queen Bees. These are found by hacking up one of the queen-infected zombies later in the game after the scene where Chuck crushes a Queen Bee. The zombies are easy to spot as they stand looking like they’re trying to remove something from their neck.
Once you have a captured Queen Bee and your blended Nectar, head to a Maintenance Room and combine the Nectar and Queen Bee for Wingman. The combo card will unlock along with unlocking the secret achievement called “Tape it or DIE!”
