Yeah, so lets give them a half @$$ed sorta dot hack like game for their smartphones..... yeah not seeing where this is going.

Everything on the .hack timeline after .hack//Quantum I've null and voided. I don't care anymore, the .hack//The Movie looks awful,
nothing like what .hack//G.U. Trilogy was hinting at. I'm to the point where the G.U. and original series eras are all I'm going to except anymore.

This isn't even really .hack// it would seem, but a knockoff for phones. Who would want to play an RPG on their phone?

If by aweful you mean awefuly amazing than you are right. .hack//The Movie is the best .hack media we received in years. And the movie came with a FREE game for the PS3. Bad-mouthing the movie because it is still not in English yet is just childish.

Anyway I'm happy for Guilty Dragon. I hope I can play it soon. The game will probably not play very good (it is a smartphone game and these tend to be limited in gameplay) but the character designs and music will be awesome as always. Who knows, it might be the beginning of a better .hack-like experience.

I agree,
the graphic visual in that movie is miles better than g.u. movie cel shaded cg,I don't know what's wrong with that guy,but for me g.u. franchise is crap,that killed .hack franchise.

From the language they're using I don't think "soon" is likely, but I too am looking forward to this when it comes out. I just hope they create a proper iPad App to go with it, and not limit the release to just iPhones and Android phones.

I want the movie/versus hybrid pack (which also is kinda bad)....Why can't they do another trilogy for the .hack universe? I mean they make so many pointless naruto hand helds, so why not develop a normal ps3 .hack game?

Meh. I'm on board for more .hack, even if I'll never play a smartphone game personally.

I find it intriguing that some version/incarnation of what appears to be spoiler[Azure Flame Kite/Tri-Edge] is present in Guilty Dragon.

Well to be honest spoiler[Tri-Edge] is not that special anymore. It has been featured in all the G.U. games, the G.U. movie and .hack//Link so I feel it is a kind of overused character. I'm more intrigued by the card designs that seem to feature spoiler[Haseo's 4th form and Kite's X-form]. But at this point it's hard to tell if you actually fight these as bosses or if they serve as summon cards or something of the like.
