Besides Jill, Carlos Oliveira (though in the movie I think they bastardized his name to Olivera) was also in Resident Evil 3: Nemesis. His role in the movie is surprisingly true to the games; being an Umbrella soldier who gets trapped in Raccoon City and is quick to turn against his employer when he realizes what Umbrella is doing.Another character that seemed to be from the games was Nicholai. However, the Nicholai of Resident Evil: Apocalypse seemed, just like Carlos, to be a good guy who was genuinely surprised about what was going on in Raccoon City. The Nicholai of Resident Evil 3: Nemesis was also an Umbrella soldier, but he was a sociopath who was trying to make things easier and more profitable for himself by killing his teammates.I suppose Nemesis itself would also count as a character from the games. In Resident Evil 3: Nemesis (which, if you haven't guessed it by now, was a fairly strong source of inspiration for the second RE movie. None of the other movies really had a presence, save for a nod to Resident Evil Code: Veronica near the end of the second movie where the helicopters are shooting out the windows, and then Milla drops her gun only to fall and shoot with it.) Nemesis's origin is unknown, and it doesn't [spoiler]turn good to help you out in the end.[/spoiler]</blockquote>
