Gaming et Politique | The King Of Kong + Fràgil Como Una Bomba

Editorial

Since it was created in 2023, the team behind the radio show “Gaming & Politique” has explored video games and their many themes from a consistently political perspective, with help from various video-game researchers and professionals. First on Radiodio in Saint Etienne, then on Radio Galère in Marseille, Gaming et Politique has continually examined video-game themes, exploring their cultural, artistic, and structural dimensions with humor and mischief.

by Seth Gordon | 2007 | United States | 1h19

Steve Wiebe and Billy Mitchell, under the authority of the experts at Twin Galaxies, engage in a high-score duel to see who will be crowned the King of Kong. Along the way, the two men learn valuable lessons about what it means to be a father, a husband, or a true champion. You don’t necessarily have to win to be a winner.
