I bought this DVD for a friend as a Christmas present. He is a huge Giants fan and LOVES this DVD.

For current but especially past fans this is an excellent trip down memory lane with a team with a great tradition. Well worth the time to see and see again.

There's plenty of superbowl coverage to make anyone who grew up in the 80's or 90's a happy camper. Also lot's of history dating back to the team's inception. Worth the amazon price. DEFINITELY worth the $12.99 I paid to amazon just before the holidays (what a difference a superbowl makes)

This DVD is great for any Giant fan.
Yeah there is some recycled footage that we have all seen before but the extra footage is excellent.
I just wish it came out a few years later to capture Eli in his first few years.
Other than that i love it and watch parts of it at least a couple times a week

I have loved the Giants for more than 30 years. Therefore, I was very disappointed that most of this footage is recycled from old NFL Film productions. I estimate less than 10 minutes of new footage here. (If you have "Giants Among Men" from 1987 and the 1991 highlight film following Superbowl XXV, you pretty-much already own 75% of this DVD set.)
When I heard they were releasing a "History of the NY Giants", I was hoping for actual game footage, complete with TV-announcers commentary.
I own boxed sets in other major sports: basketball, hockey, baseball, that show complete games as they originally aired on television. These are perfect for reliving some great sports moments as they actually happened. The drama is not created through movie-production, but rather through the course of the actual event: See Mets game 6; the Rangers game 7 etc.
Unfortunately, no luck whatsoever in this area. For whatever reason, NFL Films has always believed that drama is created in the editing room and in the music studio rather than on the field itself. What you get here is standard NFL films: painfully-drawn-out slow motion, and countless (and I mean countless) close-ups of spiraling footballs set to dramatic classical music. The drama and heart pounding memories of Superbowl XXV are reduced to a 20 second overview, followed by the most rediculously drawn-out shot of Norwood's field-goal. (You can basically go to the bathroom and make it back ... Read More
