and rename as Zombie Gear: Survive. yeah Zombies appear in TPP (even they are not meant to be zombies but Nanomachines son) but they ain't the main focus. just play the games and don't support the company. I thought they WERE the main focus since a large part of the game involved parasites and several critical parts of the story directly involved the parasites that were responsible for them? Except they weren't zombies by definition. A zombie is literally a dead person reanimated and will-less, look it up in any dictionary. Yeah, they fit the second criteria, but not the first, vice versa for Quiet.

Even if they did qualify as zombies (newsflash: they don't), there's a huge difference between including zombies in a game and literally making a game centered around fighting zombies, which is as generic as it gets. There's already literally hundreds of games and movies out there that do this and do it ten times better.

Hell, even if you want to argue that the Skulls were a large part of the focus, it still had the terrorist plot, the driving force behind every Metal Gear game to date. Even Metal Gear Rising, which many claim wasn't "true to the series roots" at least had that, so by extension, MGR is actually a more faithful spin-off than Survive (funny, I've seen select fans here and there try and argue the opposite). Survive is just a generic zombie shooter with the Metal Gear name slapped on it because, as Jim Sterling has stated time and time again, "Konami is Konami and Konami is the worst."
