Will Alien crossfire be seperate to Alpha Centauri? I have heard that Alien Crossfire will be bundled with Alpha Centauri. That would not be very good for people who already own Alpha Centauri.

I think it will be seperate. Do you think the people at Firaxis are idiots?

Schoop, ROTFL! Good point!
Seriusly now, here in Italy the Expansions Game (every type) are always available separated by the main game, but very often are also selled in a boundle with the original game (with some amount of rebated price for the later), just to help newgamers to buy the whole thing and reduce the amount of complain like:
Buyer: "I want to return this game, it doesn't start, it ask about previusly install the XYZ game"
Shop assistant: "Sure, you must install original game before install the expansion"
Buyer: "Well, I've already bought this game, I don't want to buy another one just to enrich you. I want to change this with one properly working"
Shop assistant: "Very well, what do you like then?"
Buyer: "I want that -Hundred additional level to QWE- because I never played to QWE before, but I've heard that is very good and I see this box is really cheaper than that -QWE full game-"
Shop assistant start crying loudly...
