If a company doesn't make the next game, it's not considered a mainline game?  

Fallout 4 is not a mainline game by the way, because Fallout 1 was made by Interplay and Fallout 4 was made by Bethesda.  Makes perfect sense.  Sucker Punch is making the inFamous games.  They aren't making Sly.  

Sly Thieves in Time was originally advertised as Sly 4. 


You said it, it was called Sly Cooper 4. There is definitely a reason why they changed the name.
If they wanted it to be called Sly Cooper 4, they would have called it Sly Cooper 4 or Sly Cooper 4: Thieves in TIme and not only Sly Cooper: Thieves in TIme.

I forgot where I heard it but, basically, they didn't use 4 in the title because there was a long gap between 3 and Thieves in Time so they didn't want to alienate newcomers to the platform.
