Title: Interesting Documentary - The King of Kong

Well we are on the topic of Classic Arcade games, last night I watched at DVD Documentary around Donkey Kong and two guys going against each other over the World record. Even though the facts may be a bit skewed, it is certainly a very interesting watch.

This was a fantastic movie, and anybody remotely interested in games should watch it.  If you were around and sentient during the dawn of video gaming, in the late seventies/early eighties, this movie is an absolute must see.  The best thing about the movie is that even if you have never picked up a game controller in your life you will probably find this movie entertaining just for its story and the characters.  Highly, highly recommended.
