Picked up KoK:aFoQ (heh) on DVD last week and I can't recomend it enough. A very compelling movie especially as a gamer.
Steve Wiebe an average Joe attempts to break a twenty year record held by Billy Mitchell (hot sauce mogull). The Record: The highscore on Donkey Kong. A fascinating look at competitive gaming Retro style. See this movie.

Just finished watching it.
Excellent documentary. It makes me feel like I'm nothing compared to those guys, the way they put so much into it, and I only give it like 21.7%
But I have bad news. Well, news... Take it how you want it.

Well it is technically a docudrama instead of a documentary.

As a video game enthusiast, I felt compelled to watch the movie. I am so glad I did. It is easily the best movie based on the video game scene. I would also recommend all the extras. There is quite a bit of information that was not discussed in the movie but made more sense when I listened to the commentary track or watched some of the added features.
I'm sure you have heard people talk about it but if you have not seen it yet, do yourself a favor and check it out.
