Re: Steve Wiebe to attempt new world record of classic arcade game Donkey Kong
DudeBro I completely disagree. Donkey Kong is all about skill. (And a little luck too.) There are tricks you can do to help you along the way. (Controlling barrels, controlling what side a fireball appears.)

The rest is all skill, and there are many risks along the way the top Donkey Kong players take that allow them to get million plus scores before the kill screen. When you take those risks it is your skills that will allow you to survive.

That being said, I am afraid this has been played out. People like me who respect the skill required to play this game are interested, but the general gaming population has moved on.
