Both the links have a few different details but overall i think it sounds really interesting. No its not like original RE but I enjoy the swing they are putting on things. I like the idea of you having to fight through zombie hordes to cover up umbrellas dirty deeds while trying to possibly kill one of the most popular characters in the franchise. My guess also would be they are making this game hopefully because other teams are still cookin up fantastic ideas for the next numbered sequel. Enjoy =)
