Resident Evil 5: Alternative Edition will release as DLC

Contrary of what Capcom planned with Resident Evil 5: Alternative Edition, the games will eventually release as a DLC instead of full boxed game.
Capcom recently make a pool, asking fans what is their preference with Resident Evil 5: Alternative Edition. After listening to some 1500 voters, it was decided that the game will not carry its own box.
Capcom's Chris Kramer said:

Based on your feedback, in North American, European and Australia territories, Capcom will be making the new RE5 content for both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 available as downloadable content. You will not be asked to purchase a new copy of the game just to get at the new stuff, just make sure to hold on to your RE5 disc and you'll be ready to roll in Spring 2010 when we make available new Resident Evil adventures (and some other things we haven't told you about yet) for you.

RE 5: AE will feature an episode including Jill and Chris when they tried to capture Wesker. Also the game should include the new Playstation motion controller but no confirmation whether it is possible since this is only a DLC.
Well, this is certainly a welcome news. Looks like our Resident Evil 5 game is still worth something. Luckily I didn't resell it just then.
