There May Be A Donkey Kong Kill Screen Coming Up!

The King of Kong was the most absurdly fun documentary of 2007. For those who haven't seen it, the film follows two very different stalwarts of competitive gaming as they attempt to break the high score record for Donkey Kong. There is something bizarrely compelling about people who dedicate themselves to esoteric triumphs. Words cannot do the doc justice.

If you've seen the movie, there's recent news regarding perpetual underdog Steve Wiebe. Check it out here.

If you haven't' seen it, enjoy the trailer here.

Or if you just want to hear Howard Stern discuss the movie, listen here.
