I had never seen it before - on until 10:30

It's a good film but be warned: It's awfully biased towards Wiebe and has a huge number of innacurrancies and blatant footage manipulation.

Biased as in supportive of Wiebe?

If so, that's cool because I hate Billy Mitchel, a lot.

I'm not doubting you, but I'd love to see a list of what these are. Link?

There are probably better links but I can't find them at the moment.

Of note is the omission of Timothy Sczerby world record, making no mention of Steve's Wiebe three-years long DK record, a gift certificate used for such record not being mentioned until one year later in the movie's timeline, etc.

Those three events are of great importance and the dates and data are readily availble.

Biased as in "twisted facts to make Wiebe look better".

Have you even met Mitchel?

[yomomma1]

No, But have you met Mitchell?
Unless game media is out to get him, and everyone is wrong about his personality, I'd say he's a dick.

No, that's why I don't hate him like you do.

Who is "the game media"? Who is everyone? IGN? Because that's not exactly reliable, specially when both players claim to fame is but a very biased film.

I saw this movie a while ago on Netflix, and it was a pretty entertaining movie especially considering the lack of documentaries about video games.

I don't feel like arguing, Fuck Billy Mitchell, the end.

Haha, you don't feel like arguing, you feel like making inflamatory remarks about people you don't even know.
