Even thought Resident Evil 5 wasn’t a smash hit compared to number four, Capcom have announced that they are planning to release an ‘Alternative Edition’ on the PlayStation 3 which will support the new EyeToy-compatible motion controller.
They also announced that an Xbox 360 version is being planned, but whether it will have Natal incorporated into it is yet to be known. Project leader, Miho Suzuki, said:
"In regards to the Xbox 360, a lot of fans have enjoyed the game on the console. So we are working to release the additional content in another format, as a product."
Another addition to the ‘Alternate Edition’ is a new episode featuring Chris and Jill. The episode will be based on the flashback scene from the original RE5, where the two characters infiltrate the Spencer estate in Europe.
"It was a key incident in Resident Evil 5, but it was only there as a flashback scene," Miho said. "In Alternative Edition, you'll actually be able to play through it. We had a lot of requests from fans about it."
Question. Why can’t this new Chris and Jill episode be in the form of DLC? And why the Hell do we need motion control? It all sounds like a complete waste of money, if you ask us.
