Bare Bones package, gets the job done..

Rating: 4
This is a basic, unspectacluar package that showcases nothing but the games. You get all the playoff games, plus the NE loss in week 17 that propelled them into the playoffs. Moral victory indeed...

I wish these games were presented in widescreen format. The pan and scan format is disappointing, but I'm so happy to just have these games on dvd. Perhaps a Blu Ray down the line? Strahan's SB commentary insightful, funny. Left me wanting more special features though.

My thoughts.

I read a lot of the reviews on here, about how bad the quality is, and this and that, whatever. I ordered and received it the next day. I raced home after work to put it on - The first disc, Giants Vs Pats in the regular season, I wasn't too fond of. First of all it was on the NFL Network, That's a laugh. The commentator's were terrible.
The quality, of course, is not in HD or anything, but it's still watchable.
Overall, this is a remarkable thing the NFL is doing. I didn't see 3 out of 5 of the games available, and it was great to finally see what I missed.
This is clearly a must have for ANY Giants fan; Regardless of HD quality or not.

A Giant disappointment.

Rating: 3
It was a thrill to be able to buy DVDs of one of the greatest postseason runs of all time, but the set was disappointing. The video transfer is poor in standard definition, and it looks absolutely awful on a large HD set. It's a shame this wasn't released in Blu-Ray (maybe Warner didn't expect a big demand?) and it was absolutely criminal to leave off the postgame celebration and Super Bowl trophy presentation. Certainly they could have cobbled something together out of the postgame plus the parade and subsequent rallies? I'll keep the set for posterity, but if I want to watch the famous 3rd-and-5, I'll have to stick with my lefover DVR recording.

Just as I expect.

Just as I expected and even more. There is no many chances to watch an american football match in my country, so I bought this. Five DVD's, five matches and several hours of intensity. Original sound with some comments and interviews. No timeouts. Good case and excellents Amazon.com service.
Try it. You don't regret it
Thnx Amazon

Rating: 5
listen guys most people don't have either wide screen or HD,so this DVD is great. As a Giant fan who grew up watching in black & white this is just fine.
