@IgneusMaeror:
It's before the events of RE5, but not the original.  In RE5  they flash back to when Jill and Chris stormed the mansion to locate Spencer and lets just say some stuff happened to avoid any spoilers. This is that mission.

RE5: Great with a friend, so-so as a solo game.

I see they didn't make Jill look any better in this DLC, still got the weird nose.

Co-op games need to be drop in and drop out, not forced.
They did it better in the 2P press start days.

I don't quite get how this ties into the storyline. Is it a memory flashback of Jill and Chris' adventure in that Mansion? Then how does Jill say "Takes you back some, huh?" Is that Fight Club esque flashback humor? Did they re-visit the mansion (after it was blown the hell up)?

Nice list of favorites you have there. 
What did you not like about RE5?  If you say the controls because it's not like Halo 3 or Call of Duty 4, you fail.  I was able to play it fine. 
I do think the story could have been a lot better, though.

Is RE5 even relevant anymore? That game felt dated even back when it was released.

It's called a prequel. Why would they create new assets and make a scene that's already been depicted look any different?

I didn't like the full game that much.  Gave it 3 stars.  But is say, if Ryan likes it in a QL.  I will buy it.

Right this was being made during the first game, cause the flash back to the mansion is exactly what it looks like in the expansion. Maybe it was unfinished and they left it out and just showed flashbacks and decided to work on it more, this should be free...or at least around 400points. Be funny if the DLC was around 100MB and people actually found code in the game and some stuff locked for the new game on it...to make the DLC easier to make??

What a shit trailer!!!  When I heard it them in a mansion I imeditatly thought the RE1 mansion and ZOMBIES!!!!  Where are the actual zombies???  All they showed was that dumb guy Wesker nothing else.  I bet this DLC is going to be a RE fan's wet dream but at the same time they totally screwed up the trailer!!!

Just what the doctor ordered... would it be possible that they could add new character movement mechanics for this and even the whole game?.. just wishful thinking.

No it wasn't. It just didn't live up to it's high expectations. It's still a good game though.

Resident Evil 5 is one of the best gaming experiences I have ever had, since I played through the whole game on co-op with one of my best friends. I feel sad for those that didn't get to experience something similar.
 
Don't try and make others feel bad because they ENJOYED something. If someone enjoys something more than you, are they really the ones losing out?

if this game didn't force you to have a co-op partner it would have been so much more fun and i would have maybe bought it.  This game was such a disappointment.  7 year wait for this.

Maybe the BSSA thought a two person team wouldn't give the game away unlike say having a full SWAT style team?

While yes I am a massive RE fan I do notice that RE5 was perhaps the weaker game in the series to date. At times it felt like the whole Co op trend which has cropped up since Gears Of War has taken away some of the aspects of the original games. However I feel that while we are going to have to deal with the Co op nature that was RE 5 in this DLC, I feel that this DLC could be fun.

A video for RE5 DLC has attracted fans of the game. Hmmm surprising.

Does anyone know if this is canon or just a crazy alternate off-shoot.

"Kinda takes you back, doesn't it?"   (A mansion. I can see where this is going, yes) 
 
"To Raccoon City?" (No Chris, San Diego)  
 
"Unfortunately yeah. It's where all this started" (....really ?)    
 
Then it ends in Spartan Spirit? Anyone who buys this...

DLC has never been something that's interested me enough  where I think to myself: "I'm getting that as soon it as it comes out!", but this teaser has changed that.

No, there is no spoiler here, if Chris said in the beginning "This all happened before **** died", that would kinda be a spoiler, but really that isn't a spoiler either since it shows you her tombstone in the OPENING CUTSCENE... And this really fleshes out what happened to her in the first place. This video doesn't spil anything :) And even my comment would only spoilt the first 3 minutes....
 
Plus chances are if you care about the DLC or RE5's story you've read up on Resident Evil in a game mag or something or played RE5 and know what happened.
