Does Maximo actually count as a Ghost's game I've always wondered on that actually?

MegaDrive 20XX:

Although its 3D, Maximo is solidly in the series of GnG games. Has similar music, similar weapons, zombies and other creatures, tombstones, hidden stuff . . . and on the back cover, has this blurb:

A return to classic action-adventure gameplay and fun!

Its a really well-done but modern (3D) sequel to the old classic GnG games. Worth picking up for only $20 new, too!

This game, upon first viewing at E3, had me absolutely HOUNDING the Capcom rep for info. He refused to call it a literal sequel, saying instead it was 'in the tradition of GnG'...

So officially, no. Realistically, yeah. BTW, it's a damn fine game too. I just thought the bosses were a bit too easy myself. Hopefully we'll see a sequel for all the consoles this time.
