You may be familiar with the (slightly fictionalized) documentary The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters. In it, Steve Wiebe (the "good guy") tries to take the world record in Donkey Kong from Billy Mitchell (the "bad guy"). [Note: This was itself fictionalized: Wiebe was actually trying to beat his own previous record, which had already displaced Mitchell's.] He did so... but almost immediately before the movie came out, Billy Mitchell broke Wiebe's new record.
The reason for this post is... at E3, Wiebe's gonna try to take it back. And you can watch, too, at g4tv.com. Dunno if any of you all are geeky enough to watch, but I know I will. Dunno what time it's gonna be on, though... G4 lists it as "all day", so I'm guessing starting at 10-11 AM Eastern or thereabouts.
Also, the King of Kong is going to be shown on G4 on July 1st and 2nd if you haven't seen it. I haven't, so I guess I'll watch it first.
