-------------------------------
".hack takes place in an alternate version of Earth in the year 2010. After a computer virus called "Pluto's Kiss" crashes almost all computers in the world, the Internet is shut down to the general public to address security concerns. After two years lacking both Internet and online games, The World, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game is released to coincide with the reopening of the Internet. It becomes the most popular online game of all time, with over 20 million subscribers. Shortly before the events of the games, a number of users fall into comas as a result of playing The World. However, the developers blame their condition on cyberterrorism."

Well, after I had finished watching .hack//SIGN (the anime, which is the first part of the main .hack series - these games being the followup) I simply had to get this gameseries as well to see if I liked it just as much, and I definately did!

These games are awesome, and it feels cool to actually "take part" of the story that occurs in "The World" - and something I really liked about the games is that you can visit areas from the anime by using their corresponding keywords at the Chaos Gate.
