Review of The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters (2007) by John H — 27 Oct 2010
The Twin Galaxies milieu is the Guinness' Book of Records' judges when it comes to high scores in video games. This documentary is a unique chance to glimpse into the politics of the record attempts for Donkey Kong. Chronicling the tries and tribulations of newcomer Steve Wiebe as he sets out to beat the world record, we witness the change of rules and ridiculous attempts at discrediting him from the gang around record-holder Billy Mitchell.
Obviously, the storyline has been edited and manipulated somewhat, but there are many things which these people cannot talk themselves out of in retrospect.
If you're into gaming history this is sure to grab your attention and keep you entertained.
