Dead Rising 2 Epilogue Announced for Xbox 360, Frank West and Chuck Greene Join Forces

This is one of those announcements that will either get people very excited, or piss a lot of folks off.  Dead Rising 2 isn't even on store shelves yet and Capcom has announced the first piece of DLC - one that's actually a stand alone title exclusive to the Xbox 360.  Called Dead Rising 2: Case West, much like Dead Rising 2: Case Zero, this downloadable title gives players a small story to play in the Dead Rising universe.  Instead of it being a prequel to Dead Rising 2, Case West is actually a sequel, taking place immediately after the events of the game.

In it Dead Rising 1 star Frank West makes his return to partner up with Chuck Greene in some two player co-op action - something that was missing from Case Zero.  We've got the trailer and screens showcasing the title that was just revealed at the Tokyo Game Show.

No pricing or other information was given, but hopefully it's priced at $5 like Case Zero.

Thoughts on this?  Too soon to announce?  Fans feeling like they aren't getting the whole game in Dead Rising 2 now?  Or is the content just different enough that it's ok?
