Capcom: RE5: Gold Edition DLC was originally in the game

That title is misleading, makes it sound like it was ready and they cut it. But from reading the actual article here, it doesn't seem like the content was finished and it was cynically cut for paid-for DLC (the year long gap suggests otherwise too), just that it was something they'd planned.

(this isn't discussion in the news thread, just some clarification on the original story)
