Fans of the original .hack series and anime have another reason to dust off their virtual desktops with .hack//G.U. Vol. 1//Rebirth scheduled to release early next week.

Set seven years after the original game - and 11 years from right now - .hack//G.U. presents a world where online gaming has become synonymous with everyday life. If anything, that future world seems more like 11 minutes from now, with controversies over game addiction, game violence and governments monitoring their citizens making up the headlines on its ... » Read Full .hack//G.U. vol. 1//Rebirth preview

A computer virus infects a massively multiplayer online game - and people start collapsing in the real world. When your online game is so addictive that gamers can't stop playing - and you start paying the price in comatose players - it's conspiracy time. The real-world cover-up begins to blend together with the mystery inside the game. Soon, players are banding together to get to the bottom of it all, and discovering that a psychotic programmer may be to blame. That's the story of the original ... » Read Full .hack//G.U. vol. 1//Rebirth preview
