Have you seen The King of Kong? It’s a brilliant (and hilarious) documentary about one of the greatest rivalries in the world: the heated competition between Billy Mitchell and Steve Wiebe to be the greatest Donkey Kong player in history. The highest score ever was 1,050,200…until Hank Chien, a doctor from Queens, New York, came along. From nowhere, Chien emerged to crush the record by 10,000 points, scoring a staggering 1,061,700! I ask you, how do people find the time? I suppose I could be like my brother, who turned his addiction to video games into a career at Game Stop. If I could only find a way to turn my addiction to gardening into $ome green. While I weed, get your game on with some Donkey Kong practice here.
