Classic Game Room was the first classic video game review show on the Internet in 1999 and 2000. It returns as a feature-length comedy film about the triumphant story of online success, failure, obscurity, resurrection and success again!
“Though the series may be no more, fans of the hilariously unhinged program can finally find out the truth about the rise and fall of Classic Game Room. Classic reviews of such games as Frogger, Duck Hunt, and Yar's Revenge highlight this nostalgic look back at the beer-soaked Internet start-up series that never took itself too seriously,” says Jason Buchanan of All Movie Guide.
The legendary show was produced in the early days of online video by Mark Bussler and David Crosson at an Internet startup with one camera, a green screen and $50 budgets. The show was objective, entertaining and obnoxious with beer-drinking, bottle-throwing, joystick-slinging, car-crashing classic game reviews. A cult following developed and the reviews kept coming, but how long could it last until the money ran out?
The film features the original raucous reviews of Duck Hunt for NES, Alien for Atari 2600, X-Men for Sega Genesis, Sega GT for Dreamcast, Joust and Missile Command for Playstation, Frogger for Atari 2600, SeaMan for Dreamcast, Perfect Dark for Nintendo 64 and Yars' Revenge for Atari 2600.
Special Features on the DVD include a feature-length commentary track with Writer/Director Mark Bussler, three Blogs on production including a bonus review of Berzerk for Atari 2600 and trailers for Bussler's historical documentaries: EXPO - Magic of the White City, Horses of Gettysburg and World War 1 - American Legacy. Horses of Gettysburg will be airing on public television and HDTV in June.
