| I purchased the set for my boyfriend. The first 2 disks are not the best quality, but he understands the footage is old. The other 3 disks look great. He is a diehard Steelers fan and loves it anyway... |

| The Pittsburgh Steelers Super Bowls dvd set is finally here.I have waited for some time for this dvd set and was very happy to get this and start watching these super bowls.I only gave a 4 star rating because even though these games are from the 1970's I still think they could of done a better job of restoring them.The games are watchable but the first 2 super bowls are a little blurry.As a Pittsburgh Steeler fan I am still very happy to have them.Their our no extras,just the super bowls. |
| The games are 30+ years old - of course it's not high def | 2008-10-30 | 5 / 5 |

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. |

| I have complete versions of these on VHS (some transferred from BETA) with pre-game, halftime, post-game and commercials. The quality is even better than what is on the DVD for SB 9&10. The NFL should have taken their time with this and got it right. My biggest complaint isn't even the quality, but the fact that you don't get the pre-game, halftime and post game. |
| Steelers Greatest Games - Very Disappointing | 2008-10-26 | 1 / 5 |

| I have been looking forward to this release for quite some time, assuming that they would provide the best picture quality available for these classic games. Unfortunately, when I received the DVD set I discovered that Super Bowl IX and Super Bowl X have terrible picture quality. They appear to be very poor 9th or 10th generation bootleg copies, at best. I have previous copies of the original broadcasts of these two games and the picture quality is much, much sharper than the versions included in this set. I wonder what source Warner Bros. used for the two games mentioned above? I can't believe that they got them from the networks. The picture quality of the other 3 games (SB XIII, SB XIV, and SB XL) is pretty good for the most part, although there is a slight picture degeneration for a couple of brief segments of the 2nd quarter of Super Bowl XIII. Overall, this is very disappointing considering the poor picture quality of Super Bowl IX and X. Warner Bros. and the NFL really dropped the ball on this one. |
