June 13 at 7pm and June 14 at 2:30pm on G4. Gotta love the search feature on DirecTV.

What an amazing film.

I can't believe Mitchell is back up on top.... and it was recorded by an official referee.

Anyone know of any place I can find more information on how he reclaimed the top spot? I would love to see a follow up to this.

they have tons of posts about the movie on the twin galaxies website forum. Some go in depth about how the movie spun the events for a more interesting story. According to some on there, billy and steve have played on stage against each other, and the film crew was even present.

bump. Just watched this. I would like to punch Billy Mitchell. And that was 30 seconds into the movie after just seeing him.

Brian Kuh, this guy has to be a virgin still.

Great movie. It's on Netflix watch now

Billy Mitchell is a Bad A$$. That guy has serious stick skills. This just shows how far hard work and dedication can take you in life. Now he's living the dream.

Pretty amazing, he was the first one to get a perfect score in Pacman. That is 256 levels without dying.

You forgot to mention what a tool he is.

Boy I hope that is sarcasm...

Long hair, tight jeans, and still stuck in the 1980s... I guess if that's what you find badass, then yes, he's a badass.

Well that, and his obvious god given talents in DONKEY KONG.

Sheesh, please, someone punch Billy Mitchell if the face because I'm assuming I'll never get the chance.

While tying to find some info on what happened afterwards with the records I stumbled upon these articles questioning the facts,

Steve Wiebe is still trying, playing DK at E for All earlier this year. He got through a complete game with over 1,000,000 points, but was just short of the record score.

Oh yeah. My friends and I always say stuff in the Brian Kuh voice.

"Hey guys, there's a Donkey Kong kill screen if anyones interested"

"Donkey Kong kill screen..."

"I retired at 30 and now I come here to FunSpot every day"

My favorite is the guy who is the world champion Marble Madness (w/foot) player with the weight lifting glove.

With his hand eye coordination and reflexes if you squared off against Billy Mitchell the only thing you'd hear is 2 thumps....Him hitting you and you hitting the floor. The guy is a Bad A$$. He's strong as Hell too. He carries around those boxes of hot sauce like they're Kleenex. Hate all you want, but the man has achieved a status that all gamers can only dream of.

Mr. Kuh how did it feel to break 17 world records in only ONE day? Must have been awesome.
