How to Earn the Strike Achievement in Dead Rising

All Xbox 360 games have special achievements that can be unlocked to earn extra gamer points, and the zombie survival game Dead Rising is no exception. The achievements in the game are almost universally centered on completing tasks in humorous ways. You can earn the "Strike" achievement by killing 10 zombies using only a bowling ball.

Things You'll Need

• Xbox 360 game console

Instructions

1. 

   Travel through the ventilation system in the security room in which you start out the game and go to the area of the mall called Paradise Plaza.

2. 

   Walk down the hallway and find the store named "Jill's Sandwiches."

3. 

   Search in the small garden of flowers near the store's entrance to find a bowling ball.

4. 

   Find an area with a concentration of at least 10 different zombies. Look in places like the underground tunnel or the courtyard to find the most zombies grouped together.

5. 

   Press and hold the "Attack" button on your controller to aim the bowling ball, then let go to throw it at a zombie.

6. 

   Hit 10 different zombies directly in the chest with the bowling ball to unlock the Strike achievement.

Tips & Warnings

• You will earn 20 extra gamer points for knocking over 10 zombies with the bowling ball.

• Try to stay at the outer fringe of a group of zombies, as the bowling ball isn't good at dispersing groups that are surrounding you.
