Slot Machines

Gambling
With the introduction of a monetary system to the series, gambling has become a prominent feature in Dead Rising 2. For example, casino gambling cabinets are found all over Fortune City. Most plazas in Fortune City carry at least one type of slot machine, but they are by far most often found in the casino parlors. With exceptions to Playing Cards, Casino Chips, Croupier Sticks, and Roulette Wheels, gambling-based objects can neither be picked up nor used as weapons. Slot machines and giant game stands may serve as a steady source of cash, whether Chuck wins their games, smashes them open, or uses a Hacker on them. All playable slot machines cost $100 to play, but they each have their own distinctive winning payouts listed below. There are also giant casino game stands in addition to unplayable video poker cabinets, craps and roulette tables in many of Fortune City's casino parlors.

Tips and Strategies

 * Generally, slot machines are almost guaranteed to lose, but every slot machine with cash laid out in front of them are always rigged for five consecutive wins. After the fifth win, that particlar machine will start playing as a normal machine until Chuck leaves the area.
 * All slot machines, regardless of their payout value or any magazines in Chuck's possession, will yield $300 when smashed upen, and $1,200 when a Hacker is used.
 * Having any one of the three Gambling magazines will double Chuck's winnings at slots and other casino games. Having two of them will triple his winnings, while having all three will quintuple them.
 * If you plan on going for a casino run, it is highly recommended that you carry plenty of Repulse juices with you. Zombies will ignore you while under its influence.
 * There are two Draw! video poker cabinets, followed by three Lucky Lapdance machines and two Sugar Daddy slots on the underground train in Case 2-2: Ticket to Ride. Only the Sugar Daddy machines are playable, but neither of them are rigged to win.
 * The "Draw! Wild West Poker" and "Killer Blackjack" games cannot be played outside of the Americana Casino and the Atlantica Casino, respectively, because they are not slot machines. They are, in fact, video card game cabinets.
 * Even though the working Lucky Lapdance machine in Storage Room 5 of the Safe House does not have any money in front of it, the machine is still rigged to win five times in a row. The same is true of the Cash Diet machine in Storage Room 9. None of the other working slot machines in the Safe House are rigged to win.
 * Because Chuck cannot normally use weapons in the Safe House, he cannot smash open any of the area's slot machines.
 * Despite what may be displayed upon winning a slot machine's game, Chuck's net winnings are always $100 less than his gross winnings due to the machine's playing costs.
