ITT: People don't know basic gaming terms. It's not a reboot. QfB isn't a spinoff. If you wanna call any of them spinoffs you'd have to call A4O and FFA the spinoffs.

If we're talking full retail releases at $40+, yes, it'll go past ACiT easily considering that game SHOULD have been the first to start the $40 trend.

I have no doubt reboot will be the most accurate way to label this game. It's just not just a remake, so what else are we going to call it?

What they've been calling it since day one. A reboot means they're resetting the franchise. It's a re-imagining. It's based on the movie's retelling of the first game, but they're not resetting canon and suddenly going to do the entire series all over again. If the first game played like the others we wouldn't even have this game, because all it does differently is gameplay style and the addition of later elements (Megacorp, Fongoids, etc.). Literally whole sections of the game from what they've shown off are exactly the same.

 

So yeah, re-imagining. Recanonizing. Not reboot, as insomniac has stated before that they don't want to undo everything they've done just because of the movie.
