5.0 out of 5 stars Video Games From When They Were Great!
Rob is the greatest. The DVD is so informative and entertaining. This is definitely the best of the podcast! and Volume 2 is even better!

1.0 out of 5 stars Warning: Read before ordering.
At first I thought this would be a great companion piece for "The King of Kong". However, halfway through the show, the DVD sputtered and skipped.

Defective.

Caveat Emptor or buyer beware!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great show for classic arcade lovers!, June 15, 2008
This review is from: Coin-Op TV: Volume One (DVD)
As a diehard classic coin op game collector, this compilation of reviews of games and interviews, including Walter Day, is excellent. There are many games covered and well-known collectors interviewed. This is a great video for anyone that enjoys classic coin op games!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome archive of classic game wisdom, May 6, 2008
This review is from: Coin-Op TV: Volume One (DVD)
This DVD is a real treat for a classic gamer like me. There are lots of interesting interviews with people across the spectrum of the hobby-- collectors, players, world-record champions, artists, and even industry insiders. It plays out like a real cable TV show, not just some amateur blogger's shaky web cam. It's also a good companion piece to the film "King of Kong". If you liked that movie, you will also enjoy this, as a lot of the principal people in that story are seen here as well, expanding even further on the classic gaming scene. Especially cool was an in-depth segment on the classic Laser-Disc arcade games like Dragon's Lair, Cliffhanger and Cobra Command. I'm looking forward to vol.2!

5.0 out of 5 stars Must buy DVD for fellow classic game nerds!!, April 1, 2008

This review is from: Coin-Op TV: Volume One (DVD)
I bought this DVD several months ago after having it recommended to me on a gaming forum, and was a very worthy purchase.
The disc is of excellent quality audibly and visually, and has a great variety of interviews and topics on it which will be of interest to anyone who loves the classic arcade games of the '80s. The 'episodes' themselves are several minutes long each, which makes for an easy to watch and constantly interesting disc you can watch in bursts or in one go.
If you love classic games you probably already know you'll love this, buy and enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars My Best DVD Purchase, March 25, 2008
This review is from: Coin-Op TV: Volume One (DVD)
I don't buy many DVD's any more, but I happened across this in my search for King of Kong information. Went ahead and purchased it and found it to be quite an extensive collection of interviews of the gaming industry in general and old school games in particular. If you're a KoK fan, you'll find interviews with just about all the big names from the film. Can't recommend this disc more!

If you're thinking about buying it, just do it! Hot babes and video games...what more could you ask?!

5.0 out of 5 stars Gaming Entertainment, March 24, 2008
This review is from: Coin-Op TV: Volume One (DVD)
This is a great collection of podcasts from Coin-Op TV with information and interviews ranging from new technologies and current gaming to retro gaming and pop culture. I was a gaming VJ for MTVu and found this to be a fun and entertaining way to get some great info. Good stuff.

If you like classic gaming in any fashion or anything related to the industry, Coin-Op TV Volume 1 is a must-view. There's some great interviews and other stuff on the disc, along with a cute hostess and plenty of informative stuff. Don't miss it!
