PSV? PS3? Wii U? 360? All of them? It's not CG.
 
I almost thought that was Haseo. I was like, .hack // G.U HD?! Fuck! Still want it to be PS3 though.

No handheld please.
 
I think so. Did you play the original .hack games? I think they improved on them in nearly every way (maybe not the plot), so much so that I didn't feel like going back and finishing the first series.
Yeah, I've played a bit of the original .hack games but not really too much, to be honest. It's one of those series I always mean to go back to but never do.
 
I'll never understand showing footage/screens of a game without announcing the platforms it's for... What's the point?
 
Aren't .hack games published by NAMCO Bandai? If that's the case then you can pretty much bank on it being at least a PS3 game.

Yeah, it's Scamco. I definitely wouldn't think it would be Wii U exclusive given CyberConnect 2 hasn't made a Nintendo console game in a long time (ever?), and the history of the franchise.

You may want to finish them before taking on G.U. if you were enjoying them! I'm the kind of person that finds it hard to return to earlier games in a series if the sequels improve on the mechanics, though.
 
Would it hurt .hack to add an ACTUAL online element to the game? Not necessarily a full blown MMO but something. I've been wanting something like that since the GU games. On topic though Haseos model looks pretty decent.
 
I'm no expert, but to me that's way too good for Vita and 360, feel free to prove me wrong if I am with comparable screens. :)

Here's Uncharted for Vita, which IIRC is agreed to be the best-looking Vita game to date:

My vote is either PS3 or Wii U.

But from what I've seen of their Naruto games, I'm not certain if those match up to this, and also the real kicker; he can't say the platform, perhaps it is for Wii U and of course the Nintendo Ninjas are keeping watch?

Odd that they'd be allowed to show ANY media though! O_o A big hint towards it NOT beng Wii U...

That's not really the point of the universe/fiction. There was an online one for PS2 in Japan, but since it was an online one for PS2, it stunk. So yes, it would hurt.
