Possible Alternative Edition Box Art Revealed

[A-J]

Play-Asia have put up what is possibly the official box art for Biohazard 5 Alternative Edition. This image has been up on other sites like Voodoo Extreme for some time now so it may just be a tentative one.

In other news, Resident Evil 4 was the runner up in Edge Magazine's "Game of the Decade" category in their latest issue to World of Warcraft. Click here to read Capcom Unity's thoughts

As I said before, I do not like it so much. Chris looks perfectly fine in the picture, but Jill looks way too polished, to the point of looking creepy. I seriously hope it's tentative.

Agreed.
.
Chris looks just superb, but Jill looks like a doll.
.
btw, there is going to be a disc like this is north america?

Also, Shinji Mikami was a runner up for "Person Of The Decade"

I hate how Chris has the same pose in every RE5 cover or picture. But i thought the gold edition was going to be DLC?

[DeadArtist]

looks cool, but Chris could have a different pose.

This whole box art just takes a massive dump in the whole mystery bird lady thing they tried Spoiler:

and didn't pull off

in the RE5 main game.

I'd love to know what people who play this edition as their first resident evil game think of it.

Agreed about the Birdlady - and the whole concept of the bird lady was so much more epic when everyone thought she was Sherry.

[Dracarys]

I don't think is real, saw this exact mock-box art ages ago.

[RetroRain]

I don't think the name "Alternative Edition" is very fitting. Alternative means something else you can try that is different from the other thing. This Alternative Edition isn't really an alternative. It is basically the same game, but with EXTRA stuff. So, "Director's Cut" would be a more suitable name.

What a nice cover!

But I think that "Only on Playstation" indicates that is a complete FAKE.

That's only coming out in Japan as retail (to go with one the launch titles for the PS3 wand), there will be no 360 version over there other than DLC.
