This is one of the reasons, I think, that video game movies fail. The released movie had the brain monsters from the RE2 game, but didn't even seem remotely connected to the first game IMHO. which the released movie didn't even think about putting in there. I liked the incorporation of all the monsters: zombies, ravens, dogs, hunters, Tyrant, Plant 42, etc. I personally think they should have kept with this one as it not only sounds better than the movie released, but it stayed truer to the game. They scrapped it into the production stage and started over anew with the new script (the one with Milla Jovavich). This script was the original script for the movie until they decided to write a new one. I don't know if anybody felt similar, but when the "giant plant" was mentioned and described in the script, it sounded very much like HalfLife.
RE2-similarities are probably fewer - Tyrant&Nemesis, the (atom-)bomb destroying everything, and perhaps even the S.T.A.R.S.-Team. Furthermore, while the reason for the outbreak itself seems to have not been mentioned here, there's of course once again a 'bad guy' who wants to make profit with the stuff from the lab. On the one hand, there is the underground-lab, which is in some way connected to some small house outside. But eventually, I felt like both of the resident evil films were based on this script.

My first impression of that script was, that it played between the two movies (explaining for example where Jill Valentine got the experience how to handle the Zombies). While the movies released were entertaining I really would have loved to see this script hit the big screen. Romero didn't write the one that actually came out, but he was the original writer before hand.
