NFL Greatest Games Series: Pittsburgh Steelers Super Bowls

Despite some quality issues (which are apparantly unavoidably when dealing with NFL archive VIDEO footage)these dvd's are a must buy for anyone interested in the NFL and NFL History. Though it is a shame that Superbowl 10 isn't clearer, I still had no problem seeing and feeling the intensity of the Steelers knocking the snot out of Roger Staubach. We don't need music and John Facenda and slow motion any more. THIS IS THE FUTURE OF NFL DVD SALES ! WARNER BROTHERS, RELEASE SETS LIKE THE BEARS SET (which I also own) The Bears set has 12 discs. 12 games from the '85 season. IMAGINE A WORLD WHERE IN THE OFF-SEASON, A STARVING STEELER FAN COULD JUST GO TO AMAZON.COM AND BUY THE COMPLETE 1975 STELLERS SEASON. TWELVE (or more)OF THE BEST GAMES OF THE YEAR, INCLUDING THE PLAYOFFS. IMAGINE THAT. 1978. 1979. HE COULD JUST SIT BACK AND WATCH THEM ONE A WEEK THROUGH FEBRUARY AND MARCH AND APRIL. OR GO WILD AND WATCH THEM ALL AT ONCE ON 12 TELEVISIONS! IT WOULD BE A BEAUTIFUL THING. (I am welling up with tears just thinking about the possibilities) My point is this. Quality be damned. I don't care how fuzzy some things are. I want it all to be dvd-ized so that we can have this stuff now before it disintegrates any further. By the way, someone call ABC and tell them to release seasons of Monday Night Football because ABC seems to have taken better care of their tapes than CBS. NBC is fair. Warner Brothers, get to work immediately. Start with the 1981 49ers, and continue from there.

Its the steelers

Okay, here's the deal. If you've read the reviews, you've seen that several people have issues with the quality of the video. Some people have said that SB IX and X are so bad, they can't be watched. I disagree. The quality is poor at best, but if you're a true Steeler fan who wants to relive these Super Bowl memories, then I would recommend this video series. But understand the quality is POOR for SB IX and X. I would relate it to watching a VHS tape that has been copied a couple of times. We thought SB X was actually a little worse that IX. The quality of Super Bowl XIII and XIV is actually pretty good, and of course SB XL is perfect. I put off buying this DVD set because of the bad reviews, and then decided to go ahead and buy it knowing that the first two might not be watchable. Knowing that in advance made it acceptable for me. The bottom line is I'm glad I bought it.

First, let me say that I collect old sporting events on DVD and VHS. I have several copies of these games, so I was interested in what the level of quality would be coming from an official release. To be frank, it's about what I expected. Four of the games are from the 1970s, so they're not going to be high quality transfers. In fact, if you try to watch them on a large plasma, LCD, or DLP television, you're going to magnify the flaws.That said, these games are most certainly watchable. Put the game on a 27-inch full-frame tube TV, and it's fine (not high def, but 1970s fine). In fact, the smaller the TV, the better the picture will be. Those of us old enough to remember seeing these games when originally broadcast remember that was true even then.

Para los fans acereros una colección infaltable ,los partidos completos ,que han ganado el super bowl (solo falta el XLIII).excelente revivir esas gloriosas jugadas.tal vez lo que faltaría sería una remasterizacion.

Being a big Dallas Cowboys fan, I couldn't resist getting this Steelers Super Bowl collection. Now I own the two Steelers and Cowboys Super Bowls of the 70's which are two of the very best Super Bowls of all time. These are great games for any football fan and I enjoyed them immensely, even though my team lost. Unfortunately the video quality of the first two discs in this collection of the Vikings and first Cowboys Super Bowls are pretty bad. I did read all the other reviews that warned of this, but I still bought the set just to see the Cowboys games. I was hoping that the quality could be as good as the  NFL: Dallas Cowboys 10 Greatest Games  set which has Super Bowl 6 from 1972 and the quality of that disc is excellent compared to these Steelers discs even though the games are more recent. It's hard to make out which players are which because of the shaky camera and the picture seems to go from light to dark at various moments and it sometimes makes seeing the ball hard and ruins some good plays. It's too bad that the quality is worst than an old VHS tape as these are classic games that should have been transfered to DVD in much better quality. On the plus side, the next two discs (Super Bowls 13 and 14) are much clearer and easier on the eyes than the previous discs. You can actually enjoy watching these games as they are as good as the original network broadcasts. And of course Super Bowl 40 against the Seahawks looks great as this was only a few years ago. So 3 out of the 5 discs are of good quality. I would definitely recommend this to any Steelers fan as it's their team and they'll love reliving the Steeler's dynasty of the 70's, even with the poor quality. But even as a Cowboys fan, I'm still glad I got this to see my team in two classic Super Bowls and the Rams and Seahawks Super Bowls were pretty entertaining as well. I just wish the video was better for Super Bowl 10.

This is a 5 disc set, disc 1 and 2 are not top quality but watchable,disc 4 very good, my review would be higher but disc 5 has a blemish on and will not play

other reviews complained about film quality so far only watched the 1975 game but I was pleased played about same as saw it live on analog house antenna 70 miles from Kansas city broadcast station out in the backwoods of northwest Missouri about as expected very pleased to have these early superbowls as many of them are not avaible in full games

For any nfl fan, having these 5 superbowl games in their entirety is a must. yes the quality of the earlier superbowls to be fair isnt great, and you may notice that prevoius reviews have commented on this.Im currently watching superbowl 9 , now bear in mind its from 1975, it IS watchable, but i guess i depends what you are used to and what you are watching on. To be fair i do have videos that are better quality and its a real shame that nfl films didnt get a better source for their copy as there must be one. I have found its ok , not great on my 36 inch t.v obviously the bigger the tv you have the easier it will be to see the flaws.For the price though (just over a £5) its well worth it

amazing history on the steerlers

excelnte

Package was quick with no damage
