Storywise yeah but gameplay is a bit dated for the original games but they really capture early 2000's internet really well. The original games (Infection, Mutation, Outbreak, Quarantine) have really great atmosphere but if you want to experience them you have to keep a very open mind for its gameplay. The sequel series GU went for a more shounen route with its story so it and its gameplay is more faster paced so people might like it better.
Also each part of the games are really short. They basically just took a normal 60-80 jrpg and cut them up into parts and sold them to fans at full price so don't be worried when you see 4 games and think each one is 60+ hours. It was a jewy practice that wasn't heard of at the time but they would at least add an OVA DVD to go along with the game parts called .hack//Liminality.
