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.
