So basically Dot Hack did it first bwfore Sword Art Online made it mainstream.

Pretty much. People like to argue down to the dates on the novels as to which "did it first" but it was when .hack//SIGN had its debut in American television (Toonami) that put the whole "story about characters within an online game" idea on the map.

Why the .Hack Gaming Series Needs a Remake

.hack (Dot Hack) is a gaming series that started when technology was still evolving and growing. These games showed us some of the horrors but also the best parts of online gaming. But these games are decades old, and perhaps it's time for a remake, a remaster, or even a game in the series.

the OG games, yes they do.

but.. they are very niche to begin with.
bk then, i only knew one person who played the games, beside me.

franwex1009d ago

I downloaded the whole series in a sale, but have yet to play them.

gold_drake1009d ago

yea they are a commitment haha.

especially the G.U series.

Goosejuice1009d ago

U would think they would have made an actual mmo out of this game

gold_drake1009d ago

i think they had a mmo of it, in japan only. could be wrong tho.

Pyrofire951009d ago

I think you're right. But I could be wrong too.

Quetzll1008d ago

You guys might be right. I could be wrong, but you guys definitely might be on to something here. Who knows??? Pretty sure i heard something about that years back, but i could be wrong.

The Xenosaga trilogy also needs a remake or at least a remaster. I never got into .hack when they came out on the PS2 I would try them out. A remake or a remaster would be great I am not paying an arm and a leg for the original games.

YungDragon1009d ago

I've been wanting a new entry to this series for so long.

Anime tie-in games are nothing new, but they often fall short of fan expectations. The .hack games did it right, and developers could learn from them.

Played the hell out of the original games back in the day, but never got to the GU series.
Was really hoping this was a big compilation of the games, but oh well lol.

VersusDMC1418d ago

.hack GU last recode includes all 3 parts plus a 4th new one. Usually on sale under 20(Ps4) but never bought it.

MadLad1418d ago
