      So, just been reading some news on ign and it turns out the newly released Versus mode for Resi 5 is not actually DLC because the mode already appears on the Retail disc to begin with. So really you will be spending your money on a Key to unlock the feature.
      This is some bullshit. The mode is already on the disc but they keep it locked until they decide they want more money.
      Man i am soooooooo glad i didn’t buy this piece of shit and only rented it.

                  ye coz all you’re doing is unlocking the mode on the disc and not actually downloading it.

                      Resident Evil 5 controversy — much like a zombie — refuses to die but Capcom says claims of charging gamers for on-disc content are false. Already taking shots for charging for content gamers expected in the retail release, Capcom was recently accused by IGN of charging for its Versus DLC, claiming the content was already on the disc. The controversy stems from the DLC’s file size, which sits at a slim 1.8MB on Xbox 360 and 351KB for PS3.

                      According to Capcom’s VP of strategic planning and development, Christian Svensson, the file size is because all assets for the DLC are being pulled from the retail disc; however, the download itself is programming code that “does not exist on the disc.”

                      “Keys are 100K or less. It is not a key,” Svensson replied to a forum thread regarding IGN’s claim. We’re not programmers but it sounds feasible for file size to remain slim for content that pulls all assets from the disc, but you’re the consumer. Do you believe Capcom?

                      who do we believe?????

                      War.
                      War never changes.

                        Only for the simple fact that capcom aren’t exactly going to admit they are ripping people off.
