5 - Many movie series are like this as well...
LotR and Star Wars both have billions of action figures, board games, etc., but no one is complaining about it. Could it be because some people have biased perspectives? Probably. How would you like it if they made a card-based Metal Gear Solid game. Oh wait... As long as a product makes money, people will continue to milk it until it no longer makes any. That's why there are so many Halo, Final Fantasy, etc. products. Capitalism at its finest.
Anyway, I'm always up for a new game, video or otherwise. I might check this one out...

As long as they don't make it canon, who cares about spinoffs?
