You can call it however you like. If it's released in parts it will be bs, as it's already a single game.
Still, your examples aren't multipart games. yet again you're listing individual games that are sequels.

The .hack G.U. series are multi part games in that it's one single storyline, and each game ends in cliffhangers in the middle of that story. There's never one game that could just end like that. They don't have a complete story on their own. They were always intended to be a multi part game series. And with the exception of the first FF XIII games, it's the same thing there. FF XIII-2 ends in a cliffhanger with an unresolved story. FF XIII-3 (Lightning Returns) had to be made to complete the story. You could do the same with FF7. End the first game after Midgar (a much more fleshed out Midgar), and have the next game be open world with updated gameplay mechanics, but continue the main story.
As for "it will be bs, as it's already a single game", that doesn't mean a story or a game can't be fleshed out to become multi part. Just like the opposite can occur. Xenosaga was meant to be a 6 games series, but they ended up having to condense it down to 3 games. Likewise, a game could initially be planned out to be a multi game series, but they may scrap that idea, cut out content, and make it a single game instead. For all we know, even FF7's story could have originally been intended to be spread across multiple games, so unless we worked there or knew for sure, we can't really say how a game or a story was meant to be in the first place.

FF 13, 13-2 and 13-3 are individual games. FF 7 is one game, so rereleasing it in parts is lame. I won't repeat myself on this matter anymore.
