Duplicate weapons
Note: The following tricks required an unpatched version of the game.
Throw the weapon that you want to duplicate. Before it hits the ground, press Up. Then, choose to drop the weapon that is equipped. Exit out of the menu and pick up both items. Repeat this as many times as desired. Sell them for easy money.
Hold [Throw] with the weapon you want to duplicate, then hold Y + RT.
When using the "Duplicate weapons" glitch and playing as the character Logan, the glitch will not duplicate the weapon you throw if the weapon is returned to you by Logan's "Boomerang" ability. The easiest way around this is to wait until the weapon you throw to perform the glitch hits the ground. If timed correctly, you should be able to tell whether or not the word "Boomerang" appears on your screen when your chosen weapon hits the ground, and still be able to drop it so that it duplicates itself.
Duplicate weapons
hold LT+RT+Y.
Easy "10 Heads Are Better Than 1" achievement or trophy
Have the assault rifle which is acquired during the second part of the game. Jump on a car and wait until the zombies are next to the car. Then, just shoot their heads. Even if you get killed while doing this, your head count does not reset as long as you do not kill a zombie by any other method except a headshot.
Easy "How many days exactly?" achievement or trophy
Disconnect your online connection, go to the system settings and advance the system date by one month. Resume the game while offline to unlock the achievement or trophy.
Easy "Military-Industrial Complex" challenge
While doing the "Bitter Return" mission there is a mounted machine gun on the balcony of city hall. Mount the machine gun and fire away. Every bullet fired counts towards the "Military-Industrial Complex" challenge. Keep shooting and you will complete all four levels.
Easy "Oh, No You Don't" achievement or trophy
This can only be earned with Sam B, and after unlocking his Tackle ability. Play Chapter 16, "Locked Up". Once you get to the checkpoint where you have to "Find another way to the cell block control room", you must go around to get to the control room. When you open the door to the cell blocks, there is a stairway going down and there you will see the Ram. Let him follow you upstairs and go back in the hallway. Leave the door open. The Ram will try to ram you down, but he will not be able to get past the door. This is where you can weaken him until his life is close to dead. Then, deliver the final blows with you Tackle ability.
