Stating the obvious

In sign its obvious the characters see through there eyes instead of the body in the game. This is achieved in the game by hitting L2. Of course you all new that. The weird thing is that in sign neuro goggle have been out a while. In the game they just came out and not everyone has them. How very odd. I smell the stench of a plot hole. Mwhahaha

The game's pretty vague about what technology was already out. What makes you think that whatever existed before 'Neuro Goggles FMD' wasn't extremely similar to the Neuro Goggles? It could just be an upgrade to the original visor model...

Though I agree that there are plenty of plotholes and contradictions surrounding exactly what technology is used in the .hack series to play 'The World.'

Maybe the visor is not all necessary to play, but is reccomended? Might just be an optional accessory to "enhance the gaming experience"...

Damn, she did...

but anways..

From what I've seen in both the series and the anime... I think it's required to wear the goggles, to like Ayan said... And probably the controller is there to make your character to move, and do stuff... and the Neuro something was voice activated.. like.. you can talk in the game.

Ok, Ayan got me there....

I think I saw those visors being tested for use some where.

The look a lot like the ones from the game but I can't remember the people that were making it.

What about Bandai? They're apart of the reation.

No, actually. The company that made the game is actually Cyberconnect 2 (makers of Tail Concerto, Silent Bomber, and the cel-shaded Naruto game). Which amuses me to no end as they 'self inserted' themselves as an antogonistic force to the game series. Takes a lot of guts to do that. :D

Bandai is the company who owns the entire property to .hack.

This doesn't mean that they're in charge of the manga, for example- that's done by Kadokawa Shouten.

The TV series was done by TV Tokyo and Bee Train...

...but the project as a whole was put together and coordinated by Bandai, if I recally correctly. That's how they're involved.
