“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.” - Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

“Bantering co-hosts Mark Bussler and David Crosson provide beer-fueled commentary in what plays like Mystery Science Theater 3000 for videogames. Funny stuff.” - E.H., Video Business

“Features some of the familiar drama of other dot-com booms and busts. Engaging.” - C. Block, Video Librarian

“Hosts Crosson and Bussler brim with natural chemistry. A few sketches and parodies are genuinely hilarious, like Dave’s toilet stall confessions in “The Real Game Room” (a parody of The Real World) and Bussler’s rare talent for tight comedic editing pulls each show together.” – Benj Edwards, Vintage Computing and Gaming

“Highly entertaining. These guys are just flat out likable and you just feel good when you finish watching the film because you come away with a feeling like you wish you could have been a part of it.  This film comes in at around 100 minutes, but by the end, you'll most likely be sorry it's over.”  - Duane L. Martin, Rogue Cinema

“Worth a look – could become a party favorite.” – Al Backiel, Atari 2600 Connection Newsletter

“Classic Game Room - The Rise and Fall of the Internet’s Greatest Video Game Review Show is a fantastic and loving look at both the retro games we all enjoyed, and the trying days of early Internet video. Through gut-busting comedy, director Mark Bussler is able to tell the story of an Internet show ahead of its time. There’s enough on this DVD to satisfy gaming and documentary fans alike. You owe it to yourself to check it out now.” – Tom Briggs, Sega-16.com

“A fun, nostalgic look at classic video games. Definite highlights are the Seaman review (the interaction between the hosts and the game is priceless) and their mock-up of MTV’s The Real World.” - Bobby Blades, CurledUpDVD.com

“The two hosts' dry rapport is a real pleasure to watch.” - Brent Simon, SharedDarkness.com

“Episodes seen on Classic Game Room were the precursor to G4, to Gamer.TV and countless podcasts as well as a dash of YouTube - the concept was flawless and ahead of its time. How to describe hosts Bussler and Crosson? Imagine SCTV's McKenzie Brothers as American game fans. Their gutting of the voice interaction in a skit based on them playing the unfortunately-named Seaman for the Dreamcast is almost worth the price of admission. Geniunely hilarious.” - Bill "The Game Doctor" Kunkel, J2Games.com

“These guys keep you chuckling - you'll undoubtedly walk away with a smile on your face. Worth picking up.” – Zachary Bartels, OldSkoolGames.com

“Perfectly captures the birth of online streaming video programs with superb video editing and an entertaining commentary track. Game on, fellas!” – Rob O’Hara, TheLogBook.com

“Before there was YouTube, there was Classic Game Room - a tongue-in-cheek documentary with hosts Bussler and Crosson whose odd sense of humor makes them endearing characters.” - Adam Hunter, Sokpuppet.Blogspot.com and contributor to MSN

“Off-beat and amusingly watchable. Gamers in particular will find this a must-see, but others who need a good laugh should give it a look.” - Nicholas Sheffo, Fulvuedrive-in.com

“An entertaining look at the days just before the dot-com bubble burst – made with tongue firmly in cheek and a charm of its own. Hosts Bussler and Crosson never took their reviews seriously, openly mocking and pointing out logical flaws in many games. (In Frogger, for example, why does your frog character die if he ends up in the water?). The result? A kind of Mystery Science Theater 3000 (or RiffTrax) for computer games.” – Damian Penny, Blogcritics.org

“Worth picking up. The hosts have good on-air chemistry and some of the parody skits like "People Hunt" are priceless. I nearly busted a gut laughing at a few of the skits and had a feeling of nostalgia when watching the show because it reminded me of the early days of the Internet.” – Jason Smith, NationalGameDepot.zoomshare.com

“Director Mark Bussler obviously has a knack for the genre, balancing vintage clips and retrospective comments with ease, style and humor. The DVD is enjoyable and boasts a solid technical presentation and a handful of fitting bonus features. This saga of beer and joysticks comes firmly recommended.” – Randy Miller III, DVD Talk

“The key to why Classic Game Room works well is the comradery between hosts Mark and David. Humor plays a massive part in this engaging DVD with the pair making the most of their highly observational skills. Because of the latter some of the reviews presented here are real gems (Frogger delivers plenty of laughs, with observations such as ‘Why does the water current go left and right at the same time?’ and ‘How come a frog is killed so easily when touching the water?’)” – Kevin Gilvear, DVD Times

“A charming, tongue-in-cheek DVD featuring two irreverent, quite likeable hosts who exhibit a self-deprecating sense of humor and are knowledgeable of all video game systems from the Atari 2600 to the Dreamcast. For those who appreciate classic games, beer and lowbrow humor, Classic Game Room is a celebration of the best things in life.” – TheVideoGameCritic.net

“Imagine my surprise to see Mark Bussler, my favorite serious documentary filmmaker, having the time of his life as co-host of Classic Game Room. The video game reviews are outrageously funny and the humorous banter between Bussler and his partner in crime, David Crosson, is what I enjoyed the most.” – Betty Jo Tucker, ReelTalkReviews.com
