Long hard journey to succseed

The .hack series
« on: January 24, 2008, 09:57:29 AM »

this is a subject i've been trying to open up in game design, this can be placed in A&M as well. But I chose to put it in the VG section due to the fact that it is a game its self. The ".hack" series is a possible VR (vertual reality) where we the player can become what they want in a full blown fantasy world. With technology and it's progression a VR world is now possible within games.

Following the link below states my proof:
head tracking with the wii

the following states the .hack series:

.hack (pronounced DOT HACK) by Project Hack is the overall project based on a wide variety of media including novel, anime, video game, OVA, and manga.

.hack is separated into 2 eras known as Before and After "The Awakening". The Awakening is based on a girl named Aura who is introduced (but not by name) in the anime .hack//SIGN.

.hack//AI BUSTER

A novel that takes place before .hack//SIGN. It is about a debugger known as Albireo who used to play "Fragments." Fragments was the beta version of "The World" and also how he knows Orca and Balmung. In Fragments he finds a legendary spear. Now playing The World he encounters Licorice, whom he assumes is an event NPC (an AI character) but in actuality she's a failed version of Aura. Due to his acquaintance with Licorice, Albireo also cannot log out of the game.

.hack//SIGN

The TV anime series is the foundation prior to Aura's Awakening. The story focuses on Tsukasa's inability to log out of the server and the search for the mysterious "Key of the Twilight." The storyline is told from The World's point of view.

.hack

A 4 volume game released by Bandai for the Playstation2, this takes place right after The Awakening (when Aura wakes up.) The storyline is told from the Real World's point of view.

.hack//LIMINALITY

The 4 part OVA tells of events that run parallel to the events in the game. It also covers the pre-awakening period from the Real World's point of view. The OVA will be shipped per each of the 4 volume games.

.hack//Legend of Twilight Bracelet

The manga which covers the history of the Twilight items and supposedly the later era after The Awakening is over. They have also stared airing "Tasogare no Udewa Densetsu" which is the anime of the same story- also known as .hack//DUSK.

for the first .hack games infection, mutation, outbreak, and quarintine most likely one of the best series of games you'll ever play. trustt me i know cause i've beaten all four of them and currently working on the g.u. series with there 3 games, and i do believe that in 2010 they are going to be making "the world" real pc game although getting the game probably won't make the cut you'll need all programs and systems just to run the thing but it should be the biggest impact since sliced bread
