Every .hack// Video Game And How To Play Them

.hack//VERSUS was a Playstation 3 arcade 3D fighting like game. Like traditional fighting games, there is a story mode you can progress and unlock additional content as you progress. There's a set number of eight fighters to choose from with their own unique moves. Any person any where can play .hack//VERSUS on a PS3 from any region, the game itself was only released in Japan as NTSC-J game region. But the PS3 is region free, therefore players from USA with their NTSC-U/C region console, can pop the disc in and play without difficulty, same for PAL region consoles from UK, France, German, Italy, etc... And as long as the Playstation Network is still functional for the PS3 (unlike the scare from Summer 2021 where PSN was almost shut down), anyone can play .hack//VERSUS online with each other across the world. You can also play .hack//VERSUS on a PC using the emulator RPCS3. As long as your PC is powerful enough; you can run RPCS3 to emulate .hack//VERSUS, with a controller plugged in via USB, and with RPCN configured correctly you can even play .hack//VERSUS online with other PC players. (alternatively you can use parsec to jump directly on someone's PC to play as player 2) However PC and PS3 users can not play cross-platform, PS3 can only play PS3 and PC can only play PC users. Here's how to setup. How to Setup RPCS3 Download PS3 emulator RPCS3 for your OS (Windows/Linux) https://rpcs3.net/download Use your own PS3 firmware, or the one online at https://www.playstation.com/en-us/support/hardware/ps3/system-software/ http://dus01.ps3.update.playstation.net/update/ps3/image/us/2021_0601_a0b63a3e4ae92ed176d6b9a67ce447f0/PS3UPDAT.PUP Using the Quick Start guide, go to File > Install Firmware, select PS3UPDAT.PUP (if file is renamed, it will not be available to select) https://rpcs3.net/quickstart From the menu bar, choose Configuration > CPU. Adjust the emulator core settings as follows: CPU Tab PPU Decoder > Recomplier (LLVM) SPU Decoder > Recomplier (LLVM) Additional Settings > [Check] Lower SPU thread priority Adjust the emulator graphic settings as follows: GPU Tab Renderer > Vulcan Aspect Ratio > 16:9 Default Resolution > 1280x720 Everything else on page unchecked Either find the game files for VERSUS online or make your own game files off your own disc and move file to dev_hdd0\disc To dump your own ISO from your .hack//The Movie+VERSUS hybrid PS3 disc, you will need a PS3 with a Custom Firmware CFW using the the homebrew software MultiMAN or other compatible app. Once your game ISO is extracted, you can transfer the game from your PS3 via external HDD or via FTP to your PC. Alternatively you can use a PC and a Bluray drive, but it must be compatible. A list of compatible devices and instructions for use can be read on the quick start guide. https://rpcs3.net/quickstart Plugin and a PS3/4/5 controller or an Xbox One/Series controller and go to Pads from Configuration > Pads Under Player 1 and under Handlers, you can choose Keyboard, Dual Shock 3 (PS3), Dual Shock 4 (PS4), Dual Sense (PS5), XInput (Xbox One/Series). Choose your controller then hit save. However you acquired the game from step 7 or 8, back in step 6 the game files should be stored as dev_hdd0\disc\BLJS93008, after launching rpcs3.exe the game should show, if not, press the Refresh button. Double click the game to launch or click the Play button. On the first launch of the game, it will take some time to load. This will be much faster after your first time launch.

For awhile now, we've known .hack//VERSUS works perfectly on the PS3 emulator RPCS3. Back then there was no way to connect to PSN to play online. Until recently, RPCN a emulated PSN is now available. Today we tested .hack//VERSUS on RPCN and it plays flawlessly, you can even earn trophy's.
