You are right about that. Just like "Minority Report" is an action movie, but comes under "Sci-fi" action flicks. Just like that people could take Metal Gear as a Sci-fi series.

But just as in general, in video games, its not exactly like that I believe. I mean ZOE could be called a perfect Sci-fi game, as you will hear it every where as well. But I have never read it anywhere that MGS is a Sci-fi game. People dont look at it as in a Sci-fi manner.

I dont know why. And may be thats the reason I dont think its Sci-fi either. Having high tech things in a movie or game doesn't really make the "project" Sci-fi. Ive seen some movies which deals with latest technology stuff, and considered plain thrillers, nothing to do with Sci-fi. But not everybody's point of view is same. So like I said, opinions will come in about this.

I dont take it as a Sci-fi, someone would.
