A few weeks ago Capcom offered the community a choice - Do you want Resident Evil 5: Alternate Edition as DLC or a stand alone disc.  The results are in and the decisions was unanimous.  I know, you know the result, you read the headline.

RE5: Alternate Edition will be available this spring on both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 as downloadable content.  The two hour co-op content takes Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine on the assault of Ozwell Spencer's horror-filled castle, an event that was three years prior to the game itself.  PlayStation 3 owners will get an alternative control scheme as well that supports the upcoming PS3 motion controller.  

Did you vote in the poll?  Did your choice win?

I voted for game disc. I state the reasons
I wouldn't get this from X360 Live, because playing multiplayer games cost money on X360 (if I had a PS3 I would get it btw). And I like the content on a disc, which I can physically hold, and NOT download it from a server that could be offline anytime (and not have the DLC).
Now that the DLC won, there's the next issue why I voted against it The PC version. I don't see the multiplayer content on PC, if this would come out on a disc perhaps I/we could see that. But it's a DLC, so there won't be a PC version I guess...
