I think the MGS4 and beyond world lends so much room for spinoffs. Like take Rising for example, the world it's set in lends to totally extreme action but let's take a flip side to that. Create a new protagonist who is human and must rely on extreme stealth to get through the game. Go crazy with the gadgets too so you can fight back but really make the game stealth oriented.

Another idea works well with the PMC idea and still draws inspiration from all the special elite groups of the past. Let us play as a PMC with like 4 to 7 main members who are all specially skilled like groups in the past. Let us complete missions and stuff however we want. We could deploy the whole unit and can switch between control of them all or even just pick a single member to take on missions solo style. Some of the super powerful members can be unlocked like your Volgins, Cyborg ninja, Laughing Octopus, etc types. While from the start we have the all around Snake type character, a sniper, a demo expert, and possibly a psychic who can get stronger as the game goes on. This might be too much but hey we are dreaming right? Make it where we can control the fate of the PMC. They can be defenders of justice or become the biggest terrorists in the world by the end of the game. The main story could be someone or governments are tasking your group with taking down nuclear/Metal gear threats all over the world. Lots of possibilities.
