8bitclassics Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 (edited) I have had a few emails with interest. We are almost done with the video portion of the DVD's and working on the DVD's themselves. We should have that done hopefully this weekend and will start ordering material needed to produce the DVD's. So the PreOrders will begin Here is a brief description on what can be expected on the DVD's themselves: Two Dual Layer (8.5 GB) DVD's with almost 7 hours of footage! Shot originally in 720p HD WideScreen Resolution (Future HD-DVD version possible) Camera footage of the entire show including the museum. All speakers including Dan Loosen, Ellen Lurie, Scott Adams, and many more ... One on One interviews with Scott Adams, Al from AtariAge, and Dan Loosen. Footage from the MGC and AtariAge parties! Conversations with many of the shows vendors including myself (though I wanted it cut). Much Much More! The DVD's like DVD+R's so make sure you DVD can read them (most new players recently shouldn't have a problem. Should also work on Xbox and Xbox360. Not sure about the PS2. UPDATE: It plays on my 7/8 year old DVD player that isn't supposed to play DVD-R/+R's, so will probably work on more than I thought including the PS2. Anyway, preorder is $15.00 plus $2.00 first class shipping or $4.05 Priority Mail. You can PayPal me direct at corey@koltz.com. Please put MGC DVD PreOrder for order info. Once we start shipping, the price will jump to $20. For those who only have credit card or want to order through my site, we will have it posted this weekend for preorder also. Will make update posts here on on my main site page. UPDATE: Here are some pics of the DVD insert for the case. Finished with Disc 1, now finalizing disc 2 and will post the contents shortly. I am expecting I might be able to start shipping on Monday. Now you can order from 8-Bit Classics the DVD and pay with Credit Card and PayPal. UPDATE 7/20/06 - Added picture of inside insert that shows what is on the two disc set.

Iwan't talking about the audio, Iwas actually talking about the interview itself, caught me be surpise asking about jagfest and Jaguar (as well as the gorf CD) lighting wasn't the best at the room plus if it was done on the first day, Iwas wearing the jagfest t-shirt which was also black. I just noticed you mentioned AA party, then I know I'm there(I was hiding in the back trying to keep out of the camera shot) I'll pay you at VGS in august,like I said funds right now at kind of tied up with VGS.

8bitclassics Posted June 30, 2006 Author Share Posted June 30, 2006 Yup, I thought she was just goofing when she interviewed me also, so it was unexpected when she added it. Oh well. Yup on the August thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8bitclassics Posted July 3, 2006 Author Share Posted July 3, 2006 Quick Update: Looks like it will be three discs. For some reason we couldn't fit the special features on the first disc, so those items will be on a third disc by themselves. Corey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8bitclassics Posted July 5, 2006 Author Share Posted July 5, 2006 An update, First disc so far has the following content: - Opening comments - Dan Loosen - Interview with vendors (including yours truly) - Display of the Underdog Chamber and Gaming Museum - Speaker Ellen Lurie of Ravensoft - How to get into the Gaming Industry. - Marty Goldberg of classicgaming.com - How to care for your game collection. We might reformat stuff to get everything on two discs again, but still might be three. Will post an update when the next test disc has been burned. Thanks to all of those who pre-ordered so far. Keep them coming Corey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8bitclassics Posted July 26, 2006 Author Share Posted July 26, 2006 My pleasure. Hope everybody enjoys. On some sad news, Ellen Lurie no longer works at Raven Software. She emailed me on Monday letting me know that she received the DVD and is looking forward at watching, but no longer at Raven Software. Not sure what the circumstances are, but hopefully they aren't bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
