Have you ever gone through life and run into someone who exhibited absolutely poor sportsmanship? Whether it was on the war torn battlefields of Halo 3, or the basketball court down the street, we’ve all seen it. That guy, or girl, who just doesn’t lose well. If you’ve never seen it, The King of Kong: Fistful of Quarters chronicles one man’s story of that exact situation, and we’ve got three copies that we want to give away to you.
"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!"
We want to hear your story. Write in and tell us about the worst example of bad sportsmanship that you’ve ever experienced, whether it was because of a videogame or reality. We’ll choose the best three stories and send the winners a copy of The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters.
The deadline for story submissions is July 18, 2008. Good luck!
