  1. The end of this first episode of .hack - dubbed Infection - will leave players hanging and longing for more.

    While .hack is not going to thrill anyone with its visuals or sound, the sheer replayability and depth of gameplay is incredible, and that’s what games are SUPPOSED to be all about. Bandai, you have guaranteed yourself a customer for your future .hack episodes.
  3. The most fun I have had playing an RPG in a long time! This game just spews forth with innovation.

    You know a game is good when even with crappy visuals it still holds on to you, this is even more evident in RPGs. This short but great RPG should be in every collectors catalog as it's one of the many great RPGs of the PS2 era. Full Review »
