BluesNews have a post on a new team-based FPS (http://www.bluesnews.com/s/120151/resident-evil-operation-raccoon-city-confirmed) based on the Resident Evil franchise.
Quotea squad-based third-person shooter that will offer a "reinterpretation" of the events in Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3
QuoteZombies and Bio-Organic Weapons (B.O.W’s) add to the mix as players not only compete against an opposing squad but also tackle this third unpredictable element, creating a brand new style of gameplay and breaking the conventions of traditional team based shooters.
Oooh, err missus. Well, as long as I get a red cocktail dress and knee length boots (ala Mila Jovovich) I'll be happy!
Did i read it wrong? or misinterpretated it?
Or does this is exactly what Left For Dead is about?

Yes and No. This is a team-based game [L4D1/2] with zombies [L4D1/2] but it's based on the Resident Evil series, there are three opposing teams; Zombies, Umbrella and Survivors with four players in a squad (more in PC version maybe?).
PC version is confirmed and will be released alongside Xbrick and Puss3 versions this Winter.

QuoteThe game takes place in 1998 and, rather than retread old ground, will allow players to experience the original outbreak that led to both Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3: Nemesis.
Described as a team-based shooter, players will initially take control the four-man official Umbrella Security Services squad. Their goal is to destroy all evidence of the ongoing outbreak, taking out all zombies and killing every survivor.
The magazine describes the game as "dirty," lending Raccoon City a much darker tone than other games in the franchise.
In addition to the Umbrella Security Services, two further factions will be featured in the game: the US Spec Ops and the Bio Organic Weapon Monsters (BOWs) created by Umbrella. Expect some form of three-way conflict.
