Knock it out the box Steve!

good luch steve! mitchel & all his lackeys were creepy pricks. please tell me that new mitchel score isn't the one from the movie that he sent in on video tape.

On next years film schedule:

"The King of Kong 2: Second Handful of Quarters!"

Billy Mitchell is a douchebag.

The new Mitchell score is from a "Live Online Event."

That is, nobody was actually in the same room as Mitchell when the record was broken, but there was a referee watching live via the internets.

Damn Mitchell is a cheat!

King of Kong 2: For A Few Quarters More

Get'em Steve! That crybaby deserves the glory!

I want to punch Billy in the mouf'

Also, WTF is Microsoft doing partying at TAO? Turning my favorite LV nightclub into a geekfest.

I'm just kidding :P

King of Kong is the best video game movie ever.

There's a bunch of controversy about King of Kong portraying Billy Mitchell in a bad light, but:

a) no one with that hair/beard can be a good person
b) there were some things that he did and said that can't really be interpreted in more than one way.

Good luck Steve!

@ajadoniz How many movies about video games are there? ! but yea it was great

"Billy Mitchell is a douchebag."

Damn, G stole my post. What a great flick, and what a serious douchebag Mitchell is! I understand editing can make people look like asshats that really aren't, but it's hard to despute how much of a cock Mitchell looked like - especially the whole videotape fiasco, and his unwillingness to show up when Steve was playing.

The Wizard with Fred Savage is another video game movie...

and by the way, it should be King of Kong 2: Electric Boogaloo

Good luck, Steve Wiebe, show that douchebag what's what!

Update? Anyone know how he did?

Yeah! I want to know too! Just saw the movie for the first time last nite and was surprised to find that this competition was going on while I was watching.

Lord Of Kong- Return of the King

I checked the twingalaxies website and the latest news listed is the press release echoed in this story.

Well I guess he didn't do it - otherwise it would be posted by now.
Go Steve!!!

Steve's best score reached the kill screen with a score of approx. 929,000 Great effort...

Steve Wiebe will always be the record holder in our hearts! You are the "Captain America" of video gaming. Thanks for keeping it real.

I coordinated Steve's attempt at MIX08, and I just wrote a blog entry with some behind-the-scenes detail that fans might be interested in: http://blogs.msdn.com/mswanson/archive/2008/03/...

There are also links to photos and two video interviews.

Enjoy!

Billy is the greatest gamer of all time. The first perfect pac-man game and the world record holder of the Donkey Kong record as well as the Donkey Kong JR world record. He got the new Donkey Kong world record in public with a ref present at a 80s themed show in front of a audiance.and steve will always be #2 as long as Billy is here.

Billy "the Sob Seger look alike" Mitchell and all of his sycophants are a tired old story; down trodden social retards living in a world they try to make important to everyone else and in the process just make themselves appear more pathetic. I'm embarassed for them. I pity them but want to wring their necks at the same time. On the other handS teve Wiebe seems to be more of a good guy gone astray. He was going to the grocery store for milk when out of the shadows two pale doughy villains garbed in hot wings sauce encrusted t-shirts and plaid polyester pants smelling of beans stopped him and asked, "want to try some DK kid". I don't think B.M. will ever have as many fans or friends.

You guessed it. I just saw the documentary. I had never heard of any of these "famous" people before.

billy mitchell is whats up

The score that those dirt bags denied because of the so called tampered game board at the start of King of Kong. What was it? Has Weebee had the board sent to Nintendo for analysis? It was higher than the Billy chickenpants Mitchells isn't it??? Tell me. Kind of obvious Twin Galaxies crew was crooked in the movie.

If you know the name, you know I ripped it off and earned my stripes in Call of Duty...however. DK was the original and Billy was king...much like a speedo sporting senior citizen with a keyboard tie stuffing himself into his 70's leisure suit, Billy limps around with a cucumber in his pants convincing himself he is still a ladies man and "the King"... Humpty dumpty passed him by...he'll never get it back together... Go head to head at Nintendo headquarters and Screw TG's. And after a winner is chosen, Steve will keep helping kids learn science and Billy will still be a posterboy for transexual wedding successes and jergens.

When one of our friends is being a D.........HEAD WE SAY STOP BEING A BILLY MITCHELL

Steve hold your head high, your intergrity and honesty shine through. You have a great family too.

Billy Mitchell should you ever read this just letting you know what you probably are aware off anyway, your an A'HOLE.

I can't say that the KING OF KONG doco painted Mitchell in bad light, as Mitchell said about Steve, "I'm not familiar enough with the situation" (lol).

Although it was clear to see that Billy made himself look like a total a'hole visiting the arcade and not even giving Steve the respect he deserved.

Billy will always chop and change the playing field to suit himself until all his connected friends like Walter Day leave the gaming world for real impartial professionals.

How funny was it to see Mitchell cowering from the camera in his car at the rear of his own restaurant when Wiebe was inside eating, it was so funny and it just goes to show what Mitchell is all about.

Steve your our man in Australia too.

Steve J Wiebe... the best Donkey Kong player ever...
