in .hack//quarantine was a data flag and the only thing you can get it, is the mail from blackrose in rebirth

the "data flag" from vol 3 it's the trigger for a few extra characters, quest, etc

it's not yet confimred, it can be anything, but without the vol 3 data flag, you wont get the emails or forum events, and the forest of pain.

in these times tey didn't even plan G.U., they simply make a trigger, like:
"if G.U. vol 3 save then open *****"
they didn't plan on using that data flag, they just used it's data trigger and walla you got a special "Email" or some other things, or in 1 sentence, it doesn't mean anything, yet.

yeah think about it what makes the wii so great that it kicked sony's @$$? the fact that you can fight as if you were there...and that what .hack is like think about it (Will do some split screen vids when I get a better cam)

Yeah, but graphics wise, it wouldnt hold up to PS3 or 360 so ....(we need to form some kind of symbiotic relationship between the 3 systems to create some kind of super duper ultra WiiStation 360!!!!

if its on wii you might expect an interface that lets you experience 'the world' and the real world. There would be no major problems that relate to the other media. simply a whole ton of references that will get a person thinking that there is more to 'the world' than meets the eye. it wouldn't be your typical .hack game however expect graphics that are like that of the ps2 and gamecube. honestly though i don't see .hack on the wii. who knows. my stance may change once i get a good look at resident evil: umbrella chronicles which is exclusive for wii.

as for the ps3, role playing games in general are dominant. dot hack will most likely end up on the ps3 system. i don't feel like paying 800, no 900, no 1000 dollars or more for a video game system and software. there is a lot of titles i'm looking forward to seeing, dot hack is only one of them.

xbox 360 wouldn't work because it would split up the existing fan base where ever it would sold. it would cost more money to develope both than to distribute on one system.

bandai/namco and cyberconnect are likely already at work; focusing on new characters concepts and ideas for the next installation of dot hack. it is likely the data flag was included in volume 3 just in case they want to do something.

i think the next game will be on the ps3
the data flag is saved on the memory card for ps2
and you can't convert it to the wii or 360

For me, it would be at least miscaculated to have a RPG in a free-action console, RPGs are already ment to have a specific limits that lets you enjoy the game without being too easy or difficult, if they make a version for Wii, this "limit" would have to be higher in some places(difficulty, AI, etc.) but lower in others(variety of items, quests, etc...) so .Hack would pretty much be not a action RPG anymore, but a Zeldian RPG, if I´m stating something wrong please say so because I won´t buy the Wii, especially because of my country´s issues... bu I still wish to have one(but not more than a PS3)

if I am not mistaken there is an ova coming out that you have to have the data flag for vol 3 to watch.

Requiem · Post by **Requiem** » Mon Jan 22, 2007 3:57 pm

I personally think the dataflag is for one of two things:

The terminal disk. It probobly unlocks some hidden crap or something.

The next game, if they make a new series for next gen. You might get Haseo's weapons in the beginning or something.

if I am not mistaken there is an ova coming out that you have to have the data flag for vol 3 to watch.

I can't see that happening.. I mean, the dataflag might unlock bonus scenes, but the entire OVA? If you never play GU and just wanna see the OVA, what's the point of having that?

Something like that would probobly make them lose potential customers.

2. A potential prize for the next series.
