Here's some differences between 'The Flood' and zombies:
* The Flood can run, very fast. Zombies walk mindlessly (exception of the films: '28 Days Later and 'Dawn of the Dead')
* The Flood can jump, very high. Zombies find it hard to walk, nevermind jump.
* The Flood spreads by little infection spores latching onto healthy specimins. Zombies themselves turn healthy people into zombies by biting or scratching.
* The Flood actually transform the body, by the end of it they look competely different (playing 343GS for the first time it took 5 minutes to actually realise that it was Elites and Humans attacking me). Zombies are just messed up versions of the healthy person.
* The Flood can fire guns (although quite sacrificial). Zombies cannot fire guns or hold any weapon of any sort.

Do you think they're similar now?

Although when i try to describe the flood to my friends, the first thing that comes to mnd is 'zombies', i don't think it is nearly the same as Resident Evil or anything like that.
