James L This series follows three characters that find themselves stuck in a basement, forced to beta test a video game console known as the Mega64. It's notorious for being extremely experimental, taking players hooked onto it and placing them in a virtual reality in which video games and real life coexist. This is just the premise behind the video game skits they do. Basically, the Mega64 crew parade around in public acting like a bunch of dorks. But something about the story behind it really hits home for me. When I say Mega64 is an acquired taste, I mean it. Their brand of humor is one that doesn't usually appeal to the mainstream but certainly does for me. If you're wondering if this series is right for you, perhaps you should check out their Youtube page. If you laughed at a lot of the videos, then I highly recommend buying the series and checking it out. Though, I have to say. From the time they've created this public access show to now, they've garnered a lot of attention and have made quite the name for themselves in the video game industry. You can see how they've progressed through the course of this series and I await for a fourth series of Mega64. If you want a good story centered around video game culture, Mega64's satirical take on it is definitely worth checking out.
stilanas This is an amateur TV series that works well considering what the filmmakers had to work with. The series has a lot of potential but some of the skits and candid camera stunts fall flat and are not quite laugh out loud funny. Many of the previews on their website gave away the funniest parts. Specifically those parts are "Shenmue," "Metal Gear Solid," and "River City Ransom" ("BARF!") and even these parts are only funny if you're familiar with the source material. The skits with Rocco and Derrick just running around as Mario and Luigi or Kid Iccarus were pointless and not really worth watching. Nevertheless, it is worth a buy if you can tolerate the amount of time it takes for Awful-Video to ship it to you.
captjapan Ticket to the show: $7. Popcorn, soda and candy: 12 bucks. Seeing "Mega64": Priceless. A tale of dreams found and lost, of family and of the brutality inside and outside the video game world. A madman out for revenge, a group of friends in a battle for survival and a puppet who could save them all. American film-making legend Rocco takes us from hell through purgatory and into paradise, each represented by modern conflicts in what is billed as a complex and profound work of art. Watch and learn how to draw crappy mustaches, you can't go wrong."In the not too distant future, a former video game programmer and mad scientist Dr. Poque grows weary of the world's games. Shunned from society, he invents the most powerful video game console ever created- The Mega64; A machine powerful enough to download old video games into users' brains, making them embarrassingly real. To prove himself to the reluctant public, he captures ordinary teenagers to beta test the machine 24/7 and document their progress within his secret compound... beneath his apartment building. Lead by the brave duo of Rocko and Derek, this kidnapped crew must endure the digital insanity and learn why video games and the real world should never mix."
darkchaos-1 I first discovered Mega 64 when I came upon a link to it on a message-board I have yet to recall. Upon viewing a number of their videos that they had posted on their website, I was instantly hooked: the concept of acting games out in public was something that appealed to me, perhaps because I am both a video game fan and because I had never seen this attempted before. It was that moment that had me decide to buy it. Soon, the big day came, and the DVD arrived. I laughed practically from start to finish at the antics of the characters Dr. Poque, Rocko, Derek, Sean, Horatio, and Marcus. The show itself consists of dialogue that presents shots between a camera displaying the Mega 64 and a camera into Poque's apartment. When a game is being "played," however, the camera showcases this dynamically, occasionally with very fun effects. To be blunt, I would recommend this to virtually anybody; even those who have no concept of video games. (Although it helps to have a vague sense of video games at least.) It is a great way to let two or so hours go by, and well worth the money I paid for it: I still laugh when I watch it.
