I think a crude way of looking at it would be to see the budget.
If the budget is similar to a main game then it isn't really a spin off in the deragatory way.
So FF Versus XIII isn't really a spin off while say Dirge Of Cerberus was a spin off.
MGS Rising isn't a spin off while say MGS Ac!d was a spin off.
