I viewed it as "normal guy with wife and kids invades geeks' territory and they feel threatened and freak out, then accept him in the end"

Oh come on. They showed him crying at some point, and it wasnt over anything significant like the death of a family member. Made him come off like a sad little marshmallow.

I think you're forgetting Walter Day's opening words in King of Kong. Forgetting the reason TG exists.

So does Donkey Kong have a score ceiling?  Is there "The Perfect Game"?

There's probably an upper threshold for the highest possible score; mathematically speaking, of course. However, due to the randomness of the game engine, I doubt there's any single score someone can attempt to achieve at any given time.

Lilwolf:

btw, Steve's score didn't count!  He never posted on High Score Competition #50!  (check http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=105183.0)

And I like Steve.  Freakn amazing wife to let him get to that point.  At least Mitchel can say he has a business reason to play that much.  But Steve has kids, job... then comes home and plays enough video games to get world records.  Heck, my wife gets made if I play for more then 10 minutes!
