alright, i'm trying to figure out the whole .hack//[name] thing and what goes where in the timeline...the old thread touched on a few things, but was laced with game spoilers that i didn't want to accidentally read, so if this has already been addressed, then i apologize...
okay, we have .hack//SIGN, which is the 26 episode series that cn is airing...i'm told the games follow the ending of the series, so .hack//Infection, Mutation, Outbreak, and Quarantine would follow...these of course come with .hack//Liminality, which i'm thinking takes place alongside the actions in the game (i've only watched/played volume one thus far, so i can't truely tell just yet...)
now i'm reading that there's actually more to .hack//SIGN than what has been aired, as news about the sixth dvd mentions episode 28, meaning that there would logically be an episode 27 as well...AnimeOnDVD says that this isn't .hack//GIFT, which i guess is something else that i've never even heard of...i've also read up on a second anime that i'm assuming takes place after the games, though i don't know the name of it, and beyond that there's some graphic novels in existance as well...
needless to say, i'm a bit overwhelmed and quite confused here...can someone sort out this .hack mess and educate me on the subject without spoiling anything? _________________ "Life's a journey, not a destination..." -Aerosmith ('Amazing')

As far as I can tell the 4 games take place either during the series or right after, im not sure on that. Liminality takes place during the game storyline as events that happen in the ova make more sense after certain parts of the game have passed. the series after that is Dusk, and that takes place either 5 or 10 years after the events of the game. Now I don't know as much as i want to, but I hope that helped you out somewhat. _________________ There is limited intelligence in the galaxy, but the stupidity of the universe is infinite.

There is also a side mini-series, .Hack//Bracelet. It is set in the .hack// univerese so it bears the .hack// name but little relevance to the rest of the series. _________________ To do two things at once is to do neither. —Publilius Syrus, Roman slave, first century B.C.

well now, that'll do quite nicely, and my suspicions of there being even more .hack stuff than i thought was right as well...
just for clarification's sake, based on the recent info from bandai concerning their dvd release, .hack//Intermezzo would be episode 27, and .hack//Unison would be 28, right?
geez...SIGN, Intermezzo, Infection, Mutation, Outbreak, Quarantine, Liminality, Unison, GIFT, DUSK, Legend of the Twilight Braclet...just what the hell have i gotten myself into? _________________ "Life's a journey, not a destination..." -Aerosmith ('Amazing')

Just a theory but look...
Code:
DOT .
HACK //
SIGN (referance to the fact that those are symbols or signs)
So the correct name for the show on the SVES is .//
See how wierd the titles really are? _________________ You're An Inu (Dog)!
