First look at the next .hack

Gematsu: "Last month, CyberConnect2 announced in a Famitsu interview that it’s hard at work on the next .hack video game. Today, Famitsu published its interview online, including the first direct-feed shots of the new project."

these are huge news for JRPG fans but since the name of the game is not Final Fantasy then no one cares. ;(

dot hack series is pretty good
but by looking at the screenshot it looks like the person from .hack gu

nveenio4915d ago

I sort of enjoyed .hack. It was a little strange in concept, but the game itself was cool enough to warrant a play. Depending on how they approach it this gen, we'll see if the next iteration is worth it.

Hozi4915d ago (Edited 4915d ago )

I first attempted to play the first in the series on ps2 ".hack: Infection...and it was going good until I got totally lost and couldn't figure out what to do, no matter when I traveled I got my ass kicked from super strong monsters...but I think I may go back and play it over now that I have something called "internet" 24/7

Note: Although I never finished the 1st game, something about the concept appealed to me, I wish we can get another Dark Cloud game as well.

KeybladeMaster4915d ago

Jezz how many games can CyberConnect2 work on. They work on all the Naruto games, Asura's Wrath and now a .hack game. They know how to pump out quality titles on a regular basis.

princejb1344915d ago

cause there quality developers =]

Redempteur4914d ago

they also worked on soul calibur 5 as well ( story mode )

Ranma14915d ago

I was never interested in this series. But with so many few rpg's this gen. I might actually but this game when it comes out

Fullmetalevolust4915d ago

YES!!! Loved GU and all the .hack games. I cannot wait to hear more about this project. The PS2 games were stellar and are almost become collectible items. :)

Son_Lee4915d ago

I love most RPGs, and having never played the .hack series, I'm excited, but I hope I'm not hopelessly lost.

Xandet4915d ago

Bubbles for having Lights as your avatar. She's so fine it's not even fair...

Kenshin_BATT0USAI4915d ago

It'll probably get horrible scores in terms of reviews. I mean the games themselves are just fine, but they never seem to get good review scores. Despite that they sell absurdly well(like you cannot find the games anywhere good) and fans just love the games.

soraalam14915d ago

If Kite is in I will instantly buy this! :')

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.

franwex697d ago

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

gold_drake697d ago

yea they are a commitment haha.

especially the G.U series.

Goosejuice697d ago

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

gold_drake697d ago

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

Pyrofire95696d ago

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

Quetzll696d 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.

Knightofelemia697d ago (Edited 697d ago )

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.

YungDragon696d ago

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

New .hack Game Confirmed to Be in Development by CyberConnect2

CyberConnect2 boss Hiroshi Matsuyama has confirmed that a new .hack game is in development! in its 20th anniversary concert.

CrimsonWing69840d ago

Yeeeesss!!!! I hope they vary up the dungeons, but I’m so happy this is a thing

MadLad840d ago

I wouldn't mind some cleaned up remasters of the originals. Those are the ones I have real nostalgia for.

shinoff2183840d ago

It was always mind boggling they released the .hack g.u. but never the originals. To this day I still never opened them waiting on the originals

FinalFantasyFanatic840d ago

I'd like the original games to be released again, I couldn't get into them the first time around.

BISHOP-BRASIL840d ago

Now I'm almost happy it was just a joke.

Terry_B839d ago

lol ^^ but 6 people downvoted my comment and didnt get that it was a joke as well since I knew it was a joke ;)
