    .hack//G.U. Last Recode (PS4, PC)

    This caught by surprise. I'll always gobble up anything .hack and I liked G.U. a little bit more than the first 4 games.



    Here are some of the changes they listed for the HD remake:

    Evolution Point 1 – Major Visual Evolution

    Full-HD (1080p)
    High-definition movies
    Supports 60fps
    High-definition backgrounds and UI


    Evolution Point 2 – Game System Improvements

    Added retry function
    Cheat Mode (Play with maxed out level and equipment)
    Movement speed increased
    Item slot number increased to 90
    Item menu shortcut and sort functions added
    Certain items have consecutive usage function
    Made easier to see empty equipment slots
    Chim Sphere and Virus Core possession cap at 999
    Reduced probability of allies selling off items you give them
    Improvements that were made in Vol. 2: Reminisce and Vol. 3: Redemption will be reflected on Vol. 1: Rebirth in the HD Remaster.
    Battle tempo increased with a rise in offensive ability and reduction in hitstop.
    Weapon skill up rates increased
    Increase in experience points gained
    Some powerful enemies have been mitigated
    Skeith’s shooting speed has been increased
    Avatar battles have been rebalanced
    In addition to being able to redo the Marriage Events in Vol. 3: Redemption, you’ll get to do it with all characters that become party members


    Evolution Point 3 – New Elements Added

    All movies from the Terminal Disk that was bundled with the special edition copy of .hack//G.U. Vol. 1: Rebirth will be included.
    Haseo with an unfamiliar look appears…

    Wish they'd do a re-release of the first four games too so I can stop plugging in my PS2, but I'll buy this no doubt.

    I never finished Quarantine. Having to farm those pieces to get through the traveling gates or whatever it was was a major pain in the ass. G.U. was pretty awesome though, dunno if I'll pick this up or not yet when it's inevitably released

    Honestly, just starting Quarantine is a significant achievement for how fucking hard it was to even find in the first place.

    G.U. had one of the greatest OST's in gaming history. I can sit at the desktop for awhile and just let it play.

    Oh very cool, I'll be getting this whenever its brought over. I wish they would do it for the originals though. I never finished the last game out of those and its like 100 dollars everywhere now lol.

    It took me months of scouring every used game store in my area code to get all four of the original games, and it ended up being Outbreak that was the hardest for me to find, but that was nearly 15 years ago. One of the sales people at the EB Games I kept checking actually called my house to let me know someone traded a copy in and he set it aside for me. That guy was awesome.

    Haven't looked at prices lately, kinda surprised Quarantine is "only" $100 now lol.

    I liked the original .hack series, but couldn't get into it as much.

    G.U. though, loved that and FLEW through those the second they came out. Eventually EBayed 'em all for a decent price. Would buy an HD remake in a heartbeat.

    I managed to get all 4 over Ebay or Amazon or something like that. I don't remember what I paid but I was a teenager and it was affordable so couldn't have been that expensive. Looking back, I think I got really lucky. And from where I'm sitting in my apartment, I can see the complete set sitting on my shelf

    The original was my shit despite how repetitive and long winded it got near the end (seriously fuck those gates) but I never had a chance to play GU.

    Hope there's some sort of mega bundle, .hack music is amazing and the story is a weird sort of nostalgic for me.

    The soundtrack for the franchise is definitely one of the most memorable I've ever heard. I still hear the Root Town Delta music in my head every time I think about the game.

    Shit got real and I loved it

    This sounds cool and is definitely something to be excited about.

    Buuuuut, my only issue is that these remasters may make everything look pretty but the gameplay is still two generations old. This is the same reason why I didn't buy some of the PS2 Classics. After playing Nier, FFXV, Dark souls and the like I can't see myself getting over the hurdle that the gameplay is dated. I'm sure the tweaks will make it more enjoyable and less boring to play through but i'm not sure if that's enough to get past G.U's repetitive dungeons. I might not pick this one up even though i'm happy it's being remastered.

    Now if we ever get the Xenosaga games remastered i'll jump right on that shit. I could never find the 2nd and 3rd game in stores after I finished the first.

    So many damn feels that OST evoked!



    I would boot up my PS2 just to have this playing in the background while I'd be on my laptop.
