While .hack// is quite a phenomenon, a review of the enjoyment of this game has nothing to do with the anime series (although fans of the series can find little easter eggs in the game series). The strengths of .hack//mutation are the same as the first in the series (.hack//infection): it has a great plot line, interesting new skill system, easy to use interface, and you can continue on your character into the next of the series. This is as expected, there were no changes to the game design. Despite this, I found this game to be more exciting and fun to play than the first in the series. The plot in mutation thickens and becomes more interesting and fulfilling. Like the previous game, if I were to say this game has a weakness, it would be that it is quite a bit shorter than many comparable games. With completion of the story line (in this installment), the extras, and just having a little fun, I completed the game in about 40 hours. Overall, the .hack//mutation is a must have if you wish to play the series. I don't think that the series would have been as much fun if I did not play all of the installments. Having finished the first three game, .hack//mutation is my favorite of the series so far.Read full review
Game arrived early and was in great condition. Minus the original 2 disc case. But both discs were in it

The sequel to the popular RPG .hack infection, it continues where the first one left off. It's basically the same as the first game, except it expands upon it. You continue with the items you worked for in the first game, which makes it feel like its a real online game when its not. There are many different kinds and types of personalities to keep you entertained and feel like they are real people. The voicees are good and the voice acting good for the most part. There are a few times where the lines feel awkward, not what someone would really say or just plain weird. But luckily it is few and far in between, so it doesn't affect it too much. If you aren't the kind of person that enjoys taking hours to play dungeons and level up, then this isnt a game for you. if you do, then youll enjoy everything it has to offer, including the great story.Read full review
This part 2 to the dot Hack series. If you didn't purchase dot hack infection they give you a small recap to the beginning of the story. The game play and dungeon levels are the same from last game, but for those who are just starting. The dungeon levels can range in depth or basement levels from 3 to 8. The storyline dungeons can go deeper. The story begins to thicken and become more action, but can slow down at time. Although you can have 3 players as a team. You, yourself is one player only. It's great graphic and enjoyable storyline and gives a good cliff hanger for the third installment.
If you have played the version volume, you have played the second, the third, and even the fourth. This is a sad realization that I figured out after playing the third installment of this game. The elements are all exactly the same, the bonuses the same, even the story lacks any huge plot twists. Although the game is still fun and it is neat being able to import your character from PART 1, this game still falls terribly short. In this game and the next even you are able to view videos ( basic gameplay movies ) from the previous games. If you look closely they are exactly the same thing, and you can still go to all the old dungeons. This means very simply that ALL 4 of these games could have been combined into one SEEMINGLY amazing game. However in order to make mass profit they decided to split the game into 4 and sell them for super high prices. This is a sad fact and it really ruins the series in my opinion. If you enjoy the first one, then do that, enjoy it, but Don't waste your money on this Part or the next 2, because ultimately you would be doing exactly that ... wasting your cash money.Read full review
This game is truly awesome,its fun,fairly simple,and mighty hard to put down. I highly recommend it to any RPG fan. Its got a great story that You dont have to be a fan of the anime series to understand. Some of the cool features of the game include the fact that you can take your cleared data of .Hack//Infection and begin .Hack//mutation with your already built-up characters, items, weapons, etc., you can trade with your party members as well as other NPCs, new characters, events and quests and the grunty race which I havent tried yet so I cant say much about it...Anyway its an awesome continuation of the series and I recommend it to any fan of the anime or any RPG fan just looking for a good game to play, its for you!!! :-)
It's great to have played this one after you have beaten the first. You can import all your data from the first game into this one and keep all your weapons, stats, levels, and relationship points with the characters. .hack//Mutation does an amazing job at keeping with the first game, only making it exceptionally tougher with stronger enemies and bosses. You also can continue improving your Ryu book collection, which gives you extras in the Altimat menu you can use as decoration. You also get a few new things, such as improved camera control and a little more use for your Grunties other than just giving you items. Overall, Mutation improves greatly on what the first game starts you with, and makes you want to keep pushing the story along further and further with each action that proceeds it.Read full review

The dot hack games are all great games, there is NOTHING an RPG fan should dislike about these games, even the battle system is well done. The AI is great, and it has JUST the right amount of grinding in it. The downside is always the price...try to find them cheap! I can't wait to get my hands on it, and play it to my hearts content.
You are getting the same package with Mutation as you did with Infection. You are getting a great story and a pretty good fighting system. Not too much has changed this time around. With the addition of a new area and more friends to chose from this is definatly a good sequal. With Infection lasting around 20 hours Mutation clocks the same amount of time. If you are a fan of the first game you will definatly not be disapointed by the 2nd installment of the game.
