New Gameplay Details found for Resident Evil 6

Capcom had announced that the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 version of Resident Evil 6 would be launched on November 20, with the PC version coming soon after. Details of the game were very few, however Capcom previously announced that Leon Kennedy and Chris Redfield would join forces in a world where bio terrorist attacks have turned everyone into a zombie. According to gaming magazine Famitsu, Capcom has now confirmed that the undead will be able to run and use firearms, and they are not infected with the T-virus but something else entirely. To survive the hordes of next-generation zombies, characters will have the ability to run and shoot simultaneously, quick-turn, roll, dive, take cover and use melee combat.
The video trailer of Resident Evil 6 is just below :-


A Computer Joke

In Computer Heaven:

The management is from Intel,

The design and construction is done by Apple,
The marketing is done by Microsoft,
IBM provides the support,
Gateway determines the pricing.


In Computer Hell:


The management is from Apple,

Microsoft does design and construction,
IBM handles the marketing,
The support is from Gateway,
Intel sets the price.
