| JEDE3 said: I've been saying all through the thread that it would need to have more similarities than just the hero needs to destroy a walking tank to not be a spin off. What people have been arguing with me about is that it isn't one. The Metal Gears are the Universe that the story takes place in. The technology that bad men are trying to get a hold of in order to dominate. So of course the Metal Gears will be in MGSR. But I'll say it again. There needs to be more similarities. I don't know why people are so defensive about calling it what it is. In no way does that mean it will be a bad game. Just because it's a spin off doesn't mean it needs to be in the same league as Mario vs Mario Party. Hell, Frasier was a spin off of Cheers and I think Frasier was a better show. |
So please show me a link that says MGS:R will not follow any part of the previous MGS storyline and you will be right. Since you don't have that link and since Raiden has previously played as the main character in an MGS game then it's fair to assume this will be tied into the main story somehow if not a continuation of the main story line.
If Bungie made a game about the Master Chief that had nothing to do with the human and covenant war would you call that game a spin off? Is Halo: Reach a spin off? I think your the one that has to go back and read up on the definition of a couple key words.
