DENDY FILM is giving away 50 double passes to Time Out to see the acclaimed documentary King of Kong. Billy Mitchell, hot sauce mogul who was named ‘Gamer of the Century’ in the 1990s, scored 874,300 points in the arcade game Donkey Kong, a record many thought would never be beaten. After stumbling across this record online in 2003, Steve Wiebe, a high school science teacher, perfected his game every night when his family went to bed and not only surpassed Mitchell’s record, but ended up with 1,000,000 points – a score many thought impossible. Steve became a minor celebrity in his hometown, while Mitchell hatched a plan to reclaim his fallen Donkey Kong record.
