    I bought a new copy of the CE for PS3 and to my surprise no one plays this game online.  I have now spent close to two hours looking for a co-op game.  I need help in the game, as it is hard and the game is kinda broken with mechanics.   
     
    So, does anyone have this game on the PS3 and want to do the co-op?  >.>

    In my experience, every host declines the join request anyway. 
     
    You're wrong about the difficulty of this game though.

    Sorry, don't have it.  Kinda felt that way trying to play Kane and Lynch 2 online.  At least Dead Rising is still fun single player, right? 
     
    Also, is it harder than the first one?

    No one ever played it online on any system.
    The online is pretty horrible so no one used it.

    Good luck with that.  As said above, even when the game just came out, nobody would accept request for co-op. Add that to the fact that by now, I would think most people have either beaten or given up on it.....like I said, good luck.

    Probably has something to do with the first one not being on PS3.

    You can still do that, just don't expect people to be playing the game online if you buy dirt cheap games.

    You should have bought AC:brotherhood. Lots and lots of people are still playing the mulitplayer in that, with good reason.

    Never tried to get it online. I enjoyed being the one man army amongst all the crazy gambling zombies.

    You don't need to play multi, just start over and use the Defiler more.

    I tried to play online with a friend so many times and the co-op was just broken and would not let us play, we just kept getting an error.  
     
    I could always play the game show type multiplayer mode though which is a good way to earn cash.

    Mayyyyyyyyybe I'll play with you, just not right now, in a couple of minutes. Considering I'm like level 38 or something, I would make the game too easy. Best thing you can do is play through it once creating weapons and killing zombies and once you level up, the game will be easier. Make sure you stack up on coffee creamer and orange juice too.

    @KaosAngel:  Playing the game sounds boring as hell?  That's how that game gets played.  If it's that you don't want to repeat things you've done, then you definitely shouldn't play the multi, because I've killed Antoine at least 4 times in co-op.
