Not true whatsoever, the camera angles in MGS3 Subsistence and MGS4 changed a LOT.

Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 5 are not reboots, no matter how muc you want them to be. They have just evolved in the same way MGS has evolved after being put onto a more powerful console.

how is it not a reboot......the evidence is right there  instead of just saying it isnt please  tell me how it isnt, tell me how changing the genre of a game does not mean its a reboot........mgs3 subsistence....as in the side game to the mgs series just full of challenges and mini games?

What, because the camera angle changed and the virus is no longer the same?

If that was true then basically every single sequel ever released is a re-boot. Resident Evil 4 was simply evolution, they changed the camera to the over the shoulder view and made the game more action orientated, that was it. It still had familiar characters, similar atmosphere, similar puzzles, similar enemies.

MGS3: Subsistance was the same as MGS3 but with extra mini games and features, one of those features was a different camera. MGS4 retains a camera angle similar to MGS3: Subsistance.

While the differences are fairly large, it isn't enough to consider it a re-boot. A "re-boot" is usually released after the series has been dormant for some time and a lot of aspects about the game change.
