Right? Makes my heart hurt. I still have all my old PS2 games and several PS2 consoles (2 slim and 2 original) and I won't lie; PS2 IS STILL KING! I had to get a converter for HDMI with a smoother installed, but at least it looks the same as it used to on my old 12 inch TV. :') The games were so much more interesting and, oh, probably the main thing that affects the gaming genre.... NO MICRO TRANSACTIONS. The games were complete and required nothing extra to play. I'd rather play a complete game and bust my hump finding all the extras instead of paying $50 on a DLC pack. 🙄 (In case you can't tell, I grew up in the late Atari days and Nintendo's younger years. The "New" PS1 was a "amazing leap in graphics" when I was a teen. The way games are now makes me want to cry.)
The remastered version really makes me feel happy because its how I remembered the original game when I played it. looking back at it now, I was hoping if there was a remaster, it would be this series!! I love the new improvements, the only thing I personally miss is the color saturation in some instances. I know we have alot more color depth now, but for some scenes like when Ovan is greeting you, I miss the eerie colored atmosphere.
Verttech4 omg thank you this is what I was griping bout. Not jus the eery tri edge scenes but the Kuhn scene all the blues An yellows look faded haseo looks like they used some dollar store brand detergent instead of the recommended tide
I appreciate the remastered .hack//G.U.... but I honestly think this title deserved a complete remake. A remaster is not enough to make justice for this awesome game.
They more than likely hadn't the budget for a remake. The dot hack team has said before that they have issues when getting the funding to make more dot hack games when they ask. Although, I do believe that they said that if Last Recode does well enough that we could either see a new game or a remake of the original 4
I finally played this remaster and it's very well done. Nothing is broken or downgraded from original game and overall look and feel of the game is very well Maintained. I would love to see previous hack games as well.
This game is amazing I just finished streaming vol 1 continuing to vol 2 tomorrow. I have never played this game or watched the anime and I gotta say the story is amazing. Can't wait for NINO KUNI 2 will be live streamed as well when it comes out.
This is not a typical straight remasterd version in hd .. They slightly increase the polygons count in each character,. But they use the existing asset from the original and enhance it to high texture to align the characters new features to the environment around.. Edit: my mistake they did not add polygon counts in each character because the pointed edges in each character model did not change to more rounded natural look.. They only enhance the existing character asset from the original to hd with effective msaa anti aliasing
the graphic improvement is quite clear, although the only thing i would've liked to see is mouth movement whenever they speak, not just remain like flat image Kingdom Hearts style, still its nice to see much more clear images :D
hmm this would be pretty awesome but not a thing that they could really do. at that point it would just be better to remake the whole series. so i am happy for the remaster and new volume :) lets hope that this helps them make a new series!
Alkaid was one of my favorite G.U. characters. I still think an IMOQ remake would have been better! But I have always liked those games more than the G.U. series. Personal preference I guess!
Anyone else love the Irony that the guy who use to be a PKer in "the world R1"(Sora) got Pked his first day in and became a PKKer "the world R2"(Haseo).
While I see the textured layers added for hd remastered, I can't help but feel like a lot of color was lost. All throughout this video I couldn't help but feel while details were smoothed out it looked like a load that had seen one too many washes. The PS4 versions colors looks bland, whereas the ps2 although rough around the edges all the hues pop out An are very vibrant. The Kuhn scene at the end especially was one of my favorites, an it all jus looks kinda faded.

This series was so much fun. You should have redone the first one first though.. like.. why? I would buy them all again if you remade the 1st ones.. they were brilliant games. I haven't read the comments so I hope I'm not just repeating what others are saying. I may pick this up.. I just feel like I should play the first ones first to complete my nostalgic drift.
I finished hack//gu last Recode and plat the game everything in the Remaster is better than original high frame rates better models looks cutscene got Remaster with better light but they change some stuff which is ruined my whole experience like they nerf some enemies beside some strong bosses also buff haseo dmg that's makes the game much easier i remember ps2 way much hard and you had to bring Atoli with you and buy alot of healing items if u want to go to a dungeon also going alone is dangerous if u died it's game over no Retry button I'm going to play vol 3 with cheat codes like playing as other character no more of haseo 😂
I wish there'd be a remake of the first series.. or even just a rerelease on Steam or something.. I never got to finish playing the last two games of the series and Quarantine goes for $150-$200 on ebay these days..
It seems like they used one of those generic photoshop filters while resizing the world textures, you just have to look close at them to notice this. They only look nice from a distance really.
This is truly.... an unimpressive remaster. Sure the resolution is a lot better and the colors are "improved", but it makes the lack of any mouth movements and the somewhat lackluster 3D models stand out as being... well, unimpressive. As much as I love .hack, they'd need to do better than that before I'd dump another $50 on second copies.
Bandai can you do "my hero academia" game for play station 4 please because I think people are wanting to play the game like how "dragon Ball xenoverse 2" is it would really be on my list of gaming if you make it.
anyone else feel the nostalgia when ps2 graphics looked like ps4 graphics in memories?
So true...
they do look the same on a CRT
mostly when I listen to the soundtracks
Right? Makes my heart hurt.

So you have to learn how to adjust your colors in tv setting
I appreciate the remastered .hack//G.U.... but I honestly think this title deserved a complete remake. A remaster is not enough to make justice for this awesome game.
Sofia Fox hopefully they'll make a new set of games that will continue this story.

I don't want a new game OR a remake of the original 4, I want a new game AND a remake of the original 4
If you talk to Pyros in the 4 volume, he said a new game its in process, maybe (i hope) they make another.
you mean in last recode?
Guess I'll log out and check my email...
I’m so happy .hack is back! I hope to see more games in the future!
StormGamingHD yeah, hoping it sells well even with the little coverage it's getting
Ahh best girl Alkaid in all her HD glory.
Sparda98 she got a cute boyish voice
we are on the same page here buddy ;)
I hate her :V. Cool design thou xD
I see that you're a man of culture
Amazing! Thanks so much for bringing back this series!
Sean Brigade now let's see if they do an he collection of the first games
I finally played this remaster and it's very well done. Nothing is broken or downgraded from original game and overall look and feel of the game is very well Maintained. I would love to see previous hack games as well.
all of us fans would like to see a remaster of the first quadrilogy
more like 144p vs 720p
Idk why your comment made me laugh really loudly
You really forgot what 480i or p looks like
It's 480i vs 1080p
This game is amazing I just finished streaming vol 1 continuing to vol 2 tomorrow. I have never played this game or watched the anime and I gotta say the story is amazing. Can't wait for NINO KUNI 2 will be live streamed as well when it comes out.
0:24 ... Sasuke, is that you?!
Anime Games Online same voice actor but not the same character they are both different in leaps and bounds.
Yep it's Yuri
hahaha yeah sasuke hair style all right.. color is different only. hey itachi is that you.
I love sasukes voice actor
Yuri Lowenthal lol yea.
Oh my gooodness this looks great! now I can only wonder what the first four .hack// games would look like with this love to it
Will we get the other ps2 games infection all the way through quarantine?
Sorry for the late reply but no the old games is way to outta date gus game play was so much better and easier to work with
I remade the game(s) with ps2 on ps4 all 4 games in one.pkg file. And save importing seems to work to the next game etc
@@stripnwild what are you talking about? Im curious
@@adventurer6153 are you on discord? search for my name and shoot me a message!
@@stripnwild weird, got your notif after 19 hours lmao. My discord is Vexusww#7780 thought it'd be easier than waiting on you telling your # to me
Wow i just bought this game and it's quite impressive how such an old game can look this good with a bit of upscaling
TT thanks for the hard work to all those who made this remake a reality
I’m still holding onto the hope of seeing the original 4 come back. It’s getting tiring breaking out my PS2 every couple of years to relive them.
This is not a typical straight remasterd version in hd .. They slightly increase the polygons count in each character,. But they use the existing asset from the original and enhance it to high texture to align the characters new features to the environment around..
Edit: my mistake they did not add polygon counts in each character because the pointed edges in each character model did not change to more rounded natural look.. They only enhance the existing character asset from the original to hd with effective msaa anti aliasing
I´m so in love with this game sibce I played it on my PS2!!!
I... totaly forgot how pixely it truly was tbh ^^;
this was awesome. please re-release the original 4 .hack games!
I wish we can get a remake with a better graphic and a more fluid combat. I really really love this series
Easily the best remaster of 2017, hell best rpg of 2017, so good and the game was ahead of it's time IMO ✌
Nice! I've been wanting to see a comparison video. Can't wait to get the game when I get the chance.
does someone know why they make a remake of G.U. but not of the first game series?
Maybe cause the game play/ fighting style here is better and more worth of a remake. Just my thought though.
Randolf Perez they actually lost the source coding and stuff of the original and this series was easier for them to upscale for modern consoles
It is not a remake.. wish it was :'(
because GU series was alot better.
the graphic improvement is quite clear, although the only thing i would've liked to see is mouth movement whenever they speak, not just remain like flat image Kingdom Hearts style, still its nice to see much more clear images :D
hmm this would be pretty awesome but not a thing that they could really do. at that point it would just be better to remake the whole series. so i am happy for the remaster and new volume :) lets hope that this helps them make a new series!
kh may be flat but they do express when there is voice acting xD
Alkaid was one of my favorite G.U. characters. I still think an IMOQ remake would have been better! But I have always liked those games more than the G.U. series. Personal preference I guess!
i play till end all of the 3 series of this game back then on ps2
This was a day one buy for me. without question. If you like JRPGs this is an incredible value.
Anyone else love the Irony that the guy who use to be a PKer in "the world R1"(Sora) got Pked his first day in and became a PKKer "the world R2"(Haseo).
if only we got a Persona 3 and 4 remaster,or Xenosaga trilogy
persona 4 is here, p3 is not far away i hope :)
@@Group-hr9oqp3 remake hype!!!
.hack is amazing! please bandai, continue .hack franchise. There's so much potential! i hope to see what could be included with .hack guilty dragon!
When remaster is actually a remaster.
Please remaster the imoq series too!!!
Funny how i only played the ps2 but i remember the ps4 look of it
Wow, the changes are like night and day. Looks like a whole new jrpg experience
And now a Comparison Video from .hack Infection, Mutation, Outbreak & Quarantine? :D
Is there japanese voice acting? I think the dude in green was shinpachi from gintama.

The differences are pretty obvious, given the hardware upgrades of each console generation, and improves pixel qualities.
I like this comparison but the only thing that bugs me is that the ps2 footage is in widescreen, which the original games didn't support.
I know it’s a remaster and all but .hack had such a nostalgic factor on the ps2
I bought this the other day. I'm enjoying it way more than my AAA games.
This series was so much fun. You should have redone the first one first though.. like.. why? I would buy them all again if you remade the 1st ones.. they were brilliant games.

This game was fun as hell. Im excited
Might have to check it out i have the PS2 version but for some reason it wont let me trade equipment to my followers the menu is greyed out.
I finished hack//gu last Recode and plat the game everything in the Remaster is better than original high frame rates better models looks cutscene got Remaster with better light but they change some stuff which is ruined my whole experience like they nerf some enemies beside some strong bosses also buff haseo dmg that's makes the game much easier i remember ps2 way much hard and you had to bring Atoli with you and buy alot of healing items if u want to go to a dungeon also going alone is dangerous if u died it's game over no Retry button I'm going to play vol 3 with cheat codes like playing as other character no more of haseo 😂
Is hack available on xbox? i’ve been trying to collect the originals but i can’t seem to find any other than for ps2:/
did this game will have 3 season like ps 2 or just 1 cd and have 3 season ??
the text for PS2 version it's beautiful ❤
if only they did this with the original 4 games...but we got G.U. instead
For those of u that have played this game, how's the frame-per-sec during battle?
December 11... Remember Namco...
wait so all they did is upscale the res to hd didn't change the models or anything nice to know i can just get a upscaler to 1080p for ps2
looks so GOOD!! now ps4 vs rx560 graphic .
Dude PS2 still looks good
Now Can we please get the original games as Port? like please please
I wish there'd be a remake of the first series.. or even just a rerelease on Steam or something..
I never got to finish playing the last two games of the series and Quarantine goes for $150-$200 on ebay these days..
algún emulador de ps4 para android??
the ps2 would lag too, but that isnt a bad thing, it pushed the ps2 to it's limits. GU was a series of games way ahead of their time.
It seems like they used one of those generic photoshop filters while resizing the world textures, you just have to look close at them to notice this. They only look nice from a distance really.
I recently got the game and its a huge improvement over ps2
Not to mention, its only $50usd
ngl i dont remember ps2 graphic is that bad
Xenosaga now????
It's okay but...
How about Dot hack part 1-4 REMAKE?
So..when are we getting a dbz budokai tenkaichi 3 remastered?
Suren you don’t need it, the hack fans deserve it
Até quando a Franquia Hack G.U vão usar esse gráficos Estilo Cartoon??????
Alkaid is my wifu
*-* Monstrão
Monsta guemu
Perhaps someday the publisher of this marvelous RPG will release it for switch. But my hopes are not too high 😐.
1:02 o_o My Wife!!!
Not so bad for PS2 scene
Not surprised at the difference here: it's clearly night and day and I don't need Digital Foundry's help to see that.
vai lançar no ps vita
I’m at the 3rd Volume now 🙃
Original .hack please!
When my cousins sister play this i think this game first is final fantasy but i'm wrong i don't know when i was still a kid
its nice to learn english but for ambiance i prefere the VO. (i'm french)
Mortal kombat shaolin monks ps4
I support this ! omg
Wrong company

Welp time to go dust off the PS2 and find that HDMI adapter.
Jk this looks great, wouldn't mind buying.
i wish they give us another dot hack story
I'm waiting for a switch release of fighterZ, get to it bandai
HOPE will come out more series on PC ver (steam) and better quality like eg: MHW XD
So where's our mmo now?
Don't give me that bull ovan we all know!
And spanish version not inclusive in this versión? So bad.
Same shit different day
It really looks more like 144p to 1080p...
I watch in 144p so it's like no different
Im playing it in my android phone and the graphics is HD 😁
I could of sworn the ps2 version was crispier.
It's like ps2 vs ps3
Fascinating ^_^
Burai Murian the ps4 really is the best.😉
now do infected and so on pls pls ps4 plox
Bandai can you do "my hero academia" game for play station 4 please because I think people are wanting to play the game like how "dragon Ball xenoverse 2" is it would really be on my list of gaming if you make it.
