2010 FIFA World Cup South AfricaTM brought together the greatest teams and players from around the globe for a full month of sheer sporting delight. The usual giants were there: Brazil, Germany, Spain, France, Argentina, England, Holland and defending champion Italy, as were a number of teams looking to enter the ranks of the great world sides: Portugal, Uruguay, Chile, USA, Japan and others. Perhaps the most intriguing question though, was how would host country South Africa and the other teams from the African continent fare in the first World Cup on African soil?
This 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa - The Highlight DVD takes you match by match through the tournament, letting you relive all the highlights and drama that make this competition the most popular sporting event in the world. Feel all over again the joy of Adres Iniesta s winning goal against the Netherlands, and the pain of Ghana s cruel quarter-final exit at the hand of Uruguay s Luis Suarez. Witness the rise of new stars and the dominance of established greats. It s all here. Enjoy the ride!
2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa(TM) DVD is an excellent compilation of the highlights of the 2010 World Cup. I am dissapointed that there still does not appear to be a Blu-Ray version to watch on an HDTV. Typically, DVD's on an HDTV look awful (even when using an upscaling blu-ray player, trust me) --- so to be fair when judging the video quality, I watched the DVD on an older Sony XBR tube tv. I have to say --- it looks incredible.
If you still haven't upgraded to an HDTV, you're in luck, because this has to be one of the best looking DVDs i've seen on a regular old television. This is the strange irony of upgrading your TV to an HDTV --- DVD's will look worse! It has to do with native resolution. And the native resolution of a DVD was meant for the older tube tv's. I forgot what it was like to watch TV and not have to deal with motion blur. Even the best LCD's out there today still have to deal with motion blur. (Can't comment on plasma, since i don't own one) But I digress....
About 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa documentary itself: They show highlights of every game and goal. Really well done. So there's really no point in buying that other DVD that has all the goals of the World Cup. This DVD has them all. They keep the English commentary in tact, which is fine. They do a good job of narrating.
