In 1982, Billy Mitchell, the “Gamer of the Century,” set a score of 874,300 points on Donkey Kong, a record which many in the gaming world thought would never be broken – until Steve Wiebe not only surpassed the record but ended up with a thought-to-be-impossible 1,000,000 points. In the months that followed his feat, Steve and Billy engage in a cross-country duel, filled with publicity, scandal and frustration, to see who could set the highest score and ultimately become the King of Kong!
