Thanks, Tunie and Fourier!

This 21st century is kicking my ancient ass.

Unless you watch most of your DVDs through your computer, you're best served getting a Blu-Ray player to run through your television/home entertainment system. The model I bought recently plays Blu-Ray discs, regular DVDs and compact discs. Like I said, you can get them pretty cheap these days.

I will be buying this as well...wonder if ALL local Targets ect will have this

Also, if you (or if you happen to have kids) have a PS3 or PS4, then you can also play blu rays on it.

There's also a DVD version if that's what you need for your player.

Then you'll be disappointed. This blu ray does not have the full game on it. Just highlights from all regular season and playoff games + bonus features.

Then I will wait till 3 Games To Glory IV

The blu ray doesn't have the full game? Did they stop doing that? My 03 and 04 season recap DVD's have the full game.

Oh well, 3 games to glory will be out sooner or later anyway. Plus I still have the game on my DVR

The 03 and 04 (and 01 for that matter) DVDs do NOT have the full game on them.

Mine do! (03 & 04)

Are they in the bonus features?

Sounds like people are getting confused.

The disc coming out tomorrow is the standard disc that NFL Films makes for the Superbowl champion. Generally it has the 2014 highlights plus a half-hour recap of the superbowl and whatever bonus features the league feels like throwing on that year.

Later this spring is when 3 Games to Glory IV comes out. That will have every play of the three playoff games, with the footage coming from NFL Films (which has its good points and its bad points).

In the past, one of these discs (can't remember which one) also has the international broadcast of the game (i.e. the broadcast network feed, but with NFL Network's announcers). Dunno if they are still doing that.

The Monuments Men: Inside the Mad Scramble to Bring You Your Annual NFL Championship DVD

Interesting piece on the making of these championship DVDs and how quickly it comes together.

Or maybe it's not that interesting and the offseason IS SO ****ING LONG

03 and 04 Superbowl Championships DVD's absolutely have the full Super Bowl on them

Have them sitting right here. 01 did not.

The 3 games to glory DVD's do not.

Really was expecting the Superbowl Blue ray to have it. Surprised it appears it doesn't.

Those were the NFL Network international broadcasts with **** Stockton and Moose Johnson announcing, right?

The 2003 and 2004 bonus features do include a cut up of the Super Bowl that includes all of the plays.

If you are not talking about that then you must be talking about Three Games to Glory 2 & 3 b/c those includes all plays of all playoffs games (not just the Super Bowl)

Can someone who has this bluray say what its video quality is like? Compared to say online stuff like say game rewind or itunes.

They are both 1080p HD but the Bluray version will be slightly better.

I got my disc in today. Pretty disappointing.

It's basically the Sound FX, shown on every Inside The NFL, of every Pats game, stitched together. The Super Bowl recap is actually quite short itself and is also pretty disappointing.

I know the Seahawks were our opponents and in the end we won and deserve the praise, but virtually no time is spent on who they were, what there accomplishments were and how dangerous the LOB and Lynch actually were. It's basically just the big plays the Pats made, topped with the Butler INT and its a wrap.

Honestly don't know why they couldn't take there time with this. It's a rush job and the finished product certainly shows. Oh well.

A few years ago NFL Films was largely gutted with a huge turnover in staff and a budget cut. The products they've put out since then really show it.

Well, guess I'm not as particular as others here. I downloaded this from iTunes this a.m. and am having a great time watching it. Sure a lot of it is familiar, but there are lots of nice little sideline moments that I hadn't seen before. Nice trip down memory lane in a tidy package.
