The flood are a lot like the Zerg from Starcraft, made even more obvious by the introduction of Overmind... I mean Gravemind in Halo 2.
Ya, it seems really close to Starcraft. The Flood infects the bodies of victims by changing the DNA sequence, and the Zerg modify the DNA sequence of animals by burrowing little tiny worm creatures in the spinal cord and breeding with the copied code.
And the Overmind/Gravemind? They're almost exactly the same. The way they look, and the way they control the Flood/Zerg.
Also elites have shields, and so do the Protoss. I haven't played starcraft in some time, but when i used to, i used to imagine a game with the halo units. I don't mean one of those cusom gametypes with different names and stats, but actually a halo RTS.
