i'll probably wait until they re-release it on the 260 (probably under the platinum hits label)

^360 (and i'm just assuming that they'll re-release it with all the DLC added like some titles have been doing recently)

I guess basically 15 for all that content isn't to bad especially if the episode's are a decent length. Was going to buy this anyway since i'm a big RE fan.
Would prefer if the costume packs were actually new characters for Mercs but i'm kinda doubting that at this point.

Well, you'll be waiting a while for that one. However, Capcom is working on an Alternative Edition that should more than satisfy you.

I'm a big RE fan, but I'm not fond of DLC in general. I wish Capcom wouldn't nickel and dime us to death. I'd buy an updated GOTY edition though.

yeah dude, it's a bit long since the game came out to be calling this nickel and diming. I don't know how old you are, but back in my day, they would release expansion packs that cost $20. Granted, they were longer to play through generally than DLC, but games were longer in general back then, too, and they didn't cost more. Nobody complained about expansion packs, in fact, everyone loved them. If you liked the original game, here's more! And it's only $20! Now, DLC expansions are only $5 and $10. Avoiding the DLC released soon after the main title, DLC like this, that has had a decent gap of time between its release and its parent's release, is nothing but more of a good thing for people who like the game. Otherwise, it's completely avoidable.

Yes, everyone else is too busy looking at the beautiful pectoral muscle that Chris is showing.

he does resemble the Humongous, doesn't he? although if he had a motorcycle and little blonde sex-slave he'd more resemble Wez.

finally!!! the only thing that's been keeping me from playing RE5 was the inability to dress my character as a creepy leather-daddy :D

I'll buy the new eps, but not the costume packs.

Some kind of Fallout 3 crossover? Looks like raider painspike armour.

unlikely for the prices to be different? Anyone else remember the versus DLC?!?!?! Watch, each episode will be like 10 bucks over here but the costumes will probably stay the same...

well, my wife will make me buy ALL of this. (it's her favorite game) we played through this game 5 freakin' times. it got to the point that she'd say "thanks, pahtnah!" to me for like... making dinner, or doing the dishes... *sigh* just when i thought she'd gotten over it, looks like we're going to be playing even more.

umm, thanks for the offer, i guess, but i'm gonna go with "no". killin' zombies gets her all worked up, know what i mean? so... even if i'm kinda bored with the game, i'll manage. ;-D

They Really need to Add the Ghost Costume *A white bed sheet* for Chris and have him say *Boy* over and over again and have Sheva Dressed up as a Witch Doctor shaking a chicken and rolling her eyes back.
