The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters clip 4

[grizzwithjizz]

i hear that you're good at centipede

[goldAUsilverAG]

Yep that's Iowa alright. Home sweet home.

[AFistfulOF1UPs]

Anyone seen the film "The Road"? Take a look at Walter Day in front of this old barn… then look at Viggo Mortensen in a post apocalyptic wasteland and tell me you don't think Walter is his twin.

[WalterDay]

For those of you who are familiar with my music that appears in the "King of Kong" and "Chasing Ghosts," I am starting to work on my first song and would like to know which of those songs you think would be the best to work on first?? Plus, I am going to discuss this ongoing process through twitter, if anybody wishes to join my twitter account at twitter@WalterDay.

[Krowsnose]

Where's this guy live? Fuckin Chernobyl?

[TheStinkfister]

@Krowsnose Worse. Iowa. I wouldn't recommend it.

[Shazbotian]

I don't know quite what it is...but I find Walter Day very interesting. I'm sitting here searching for more YouTube videos of him to watch. I agree with one of the posters here, if I find an album of Walter Days I will buy it. I sincerely hope he finds his musical pursuits very satisfying.

[suzzaneee]

King of Kong is an excellent film about a rivalry that says a lot about competition in our culture,An instant cult classic!..watch it online FULL at BigOnlineMovies . c o m

[jonahstevenson]

Sure Walter needs to practice a little more often, but it's really a great song I think. Someone should get him in the studio.

[Dodek72]

You will end up like Walter if video games become more than just fun.

[hermpie]

please let me know when walter's first live performance is... I want to be there.

bam bam babababom baba ba bom ba ba ba bammmmmm lol

[freddynugz]

why is everyone hating on him. I for one like what i've heard of his so far, and i wish i could hear more but i can't seem to find anything. and second of all you have no idea what its like to even play with cold fingers, he's obviously outside in cold weather which makes it even worse.

Do something which takes talent and do it in an uncomfortable position and then come back and pass judgement. please.

[stuffums]

That looks like something from STALKER when he's jamming on the guitar

[froobcity]

sweet I need to start playing centipede. Then ill be rollin in the groupies.

[Geo63]

I'm a huge centipede groupie! lol XD

[somefellow12345]

He was meant to be a musician in the freezing cold of Ottumwa.

[hopplacowboy]

with or without crowd hahahaha

[shortplank]

But three lies I'll probably be saying ba-ba-ba-ba-dow...

[CohenAfterward]

This is awesome...

[slavman4000]

this is sad u dont get girls by playin video games

[fromgio]

LOL yea he'll b rollin' into pussy as soon as the girls find out that hes good at Centipede

[Dane333]

tune your guitar

[psych0fl3x]

[shadow1854]

Yeah, woman love guys that are good at Centipede. Haha.

[gummoboy333]

@shadow1854 If only we lived in a world where the video gamer got the girl and not the sports hero! haha

[mamakin1973]

lol needs to tune his guitar

[RaidenTheAlmighty]

With some scissors.

[Jaz0p]

eww he sucks

at being a musician =S

[pacmantab]

With respect you are reminding me of another gamer of note that has been in a similar situation:

Roy Shildt.

And you seem to be taking a similar path...posting a plethora of propaganda "exposing" Twin Galaxies as corrupt while filtering out comments that contradict your stance.

Of course, you could have a valid beef with TG. But you may want to consider letting your performances speak for themselves. After a point your videos become little more than white noise....

[pacmantab]

But do two wrongs make a right? If you've followed the Mr. Awesome saga, you would know that even Scot Rubin from Allgames, who had supported Roy and the King of Kong storyline, eventually said "enough" to Roy's ongoing crusade against TG. As recently as E for ALL, Scot still had enough respect for TG and Walter to invite them to his booth. The same could not be said for Roy.

Is this truly the path you wish to follow? Just play...and let the scores fall where they may

[pacmantab]

Mr. Awesome might disagree. Since his contention, among others, is that Missile Command has more prestige than almost any other game.

All kidding aside, if you ARE legit, then your scores should remain. I believe that concerning Roy, yourself, anyone.

And I did watch all the videos, for the record. Looking forward to hearing more.

[86108610]

this shit straight outta STALKER

[DaveDVX]

Cool song, he played pretty well considering the frozen fingers. As for everyone arguing about games, every type of game offers a different challenge. I am well above average in FPSs and 2d fighting games (just a statement, not bragging), but I can only score 400k on Kozmic Kroozr. I can beat Super Ghouls n Ghosts w/out continuing, but I can barely hit 200k on Ms Pacman, on a good day. Everything is what it is. Don't blast it because you don't dig it.

[xArnthorx]

I r best donkey kong player in teh w0rld!

[TulseLuper]

If he puts out an album I will buy it in a heartbeat.

[Nopperabou]

He did have at least one girlfriend but she slept with his best friend. He's probably the most normal of all the classic arcade crowd. He'd give up running Twin Galaxies if there was anyone good enough to take over.

[EdOscuro]

I can think of a number of people more than qualified. TG is a joke.

[PhrostCope]

Walter, this clip makes it very clear why you never got married.

Or had a girlfriend.

Or had kids.

Or had sex.

Or made it in the music industry.

[ninelivecat]

Hey Cool Twin Galaxies was a great idea

[asdfBanditfdsa]

that's me, i'm da guy in da video

[Shazzner]

♫♪ get out of here stalker ♪♫

[gamesmasterjasper]

Great song Walt. You can see me in the background of this vid.

- gamesmasterjasper

[ZOMGX3]

LOL, you're that girl at 0:19?

[gamesmasterjasper]

No. I'm walking around inside the barn.

- gamesmasterjasper

[ZOMGX3]

I'm pretty sure you were, quazimodo.

[zurcnet]

Lol, you fucking loser, you actually hang out with this person?

[JoshDone]

Greatest. Song. Ever.

[B3nnyth3ninjaa]

what about flash flash revolution thats pretty hard

and its not a classic

i can play on master, and that takes skill

[ddrjessssse]

I would own you at FFR,and FFR takes no skill because you could button mash and pass a song...try DDR noob

[WhiteJack8791]

That's actually a pretty good song. He doesn't perform it well but it's really well written. Anyone know if he took it from somewhere?

[icetrey87]

lol at people thinking old school arcade games are easier than first person shooters.

I'd be happy to play you in Galaga just as much as Halo.

[Brudof]

lol at using Halo as an example of a game that needs skill.

[icetrey87]

It is if you want to beat people at it. Just as much as old arcade machines require skill to get far.

[ImFunnyUreNot]

Ummm it does. I've play a lot of FPS's and Halo 1 was the best FPS ever made. It took more skill than any of them. The new Halo's are no good but if you played enough of Halo 1 you would understand. The Pistol is the most skill based weapon of any other FPS ever made. You think your good one day only to find out that your not even close to being the best the next. I played a lot a became one of the best in the state...but I still wasn't even close to being the best.

[Brudof]

You can say that about any game out there. Halo 1 wasn't as good as Halo 2 and Halo 3 just plain sucks. I was very good at Halo 2 and took it serious and played everyday all day, and also thought it was one of the games that took the most skill, but i didn't play PC games back then. Go buy CS 1.6 and you will see that Halo is easy mode. Star craft is another good example of a game that takes more skill. You have no recoil in halo or reduced accuracy while moving, making it very easy.

[ImFunnyUreNot]

Well you play some of the best in Halo 1 and I can assure you it wasn't an easy game. No recoil doesn't matter. The game was centered around power ups and performing tricks (which Halo 2 almost completely eliminated). Those are what made the game. Also the weapons are too balanced in the 2nd and 3rd. Halo CE, every weapon could be used in different situations. Dual wield is dumb and its a lot of spray and shoot. All the pros of Halo 1 will ALWAYS say it was better game.

[ImFunnyUreNot]

And I've played CS A LOT. I do enjoy that game very much. But no game out there uses the weapon system better or tricks and strategy like Halo CE. If I had to rate the best FPS it would be 1. Halo CE 2. CS/Call of Duty 4 3. The rest....The pistol was the best weapon ever. If you played someone good you better be accurate and lead well. The sniper was harder in the 1st as well making it more challenging and satisfying when you got head shots. No stupid swords or dual wielding...lame.

[cmango9]

hes a beast

[theBUZer]

dude, he had all the babes in the 80s

[ProfessorHuggins]

he lives in an abandoned barn and wears ref clothing in everyday life? wow

[BrewerSean420]

you are both extraordinary faggots. enjoy your lifetime virginity

[brpadington]

The truly sad part of this is that most of society thinks that anyone who likes video games are just as pathetic and scary as these people... That being said watching these nerds is almost as funny as watching nickelback being pelted with rocks(wich is what i hope heaven is like)

[izDEADone]

lol

[LoBoExtreme]

great song

[shades2]

This movie is like two grown men racing tricycles. Albiet they are very very good tricycle racers, but it is still kind of sad.

People should try to be the best, but don't let it devour your life and become your sole reason for existence...

Also, how are they uniquivocally the best video game players ever? I think some Quake or Counterstrike players might qualify in terms of reaction time and skills, times have moved on since Pacman...

[porkens]

The concentrate on making new games fun and not really hard because new games don't have to eat your quarters,

[nosis106]

to trt and porkens, he named CS and quake - he's talking about online, competetive. yeah new games are not hard in terms of singleplayer, but they can get very competetive.

i agree with shades

[nosis106]

that's singleplayer

i'd like to see you beat another PLAYER at quake

[trtomkitinholloywood]

No problem, I really don't think you understand who I am.

But that's ok

[nosis106]

i really dont care, if you think singleplayer FPS is a measure of skill, youre wrong and stuck in the past.

[nosis106]

hahaha

i play tactical FPS and RTS at a semi pro level, the fact that you think high scores and records in oldschool games is some measure of skill makes me laugh. yeah its not easy, but that in no way carries over to twitch shooters or tac shooters, or the level of thought in an RTS. humans easier than computers? haha yeah if you play platformers and fighters maybe, ahaha.

[nosis106]

playing you in my venue would be straight unfair (Spies versus Mercenaries) - as the game has a small community of extremely skilled players. name an FPS, and ill play you in it. im curious if you can even handle a mouse.

BTW i watched your videos, gave me a nice belly laugh. no disrespect - im sure youre good at what you do, but how you can possibly think platformers and high scores can compare you to an FPS gamer is beyond me.

[ChickHabitHolly]

WHOA NERD FIGHT!

[nosis106]

fuck yeah! i won too, btw

[trtomkitinholloywood]

WTF

[neomrdo]

After watching the movie, I dont think I could trust this guy. He obviously blows Billy Mitchell whenever possible. Now I cant submit my D. Kong score because its too much of a hassle. Maybe when someone else takes over T. Galaxies?

[Cfreer404]

I wonder how many pretty girls went up to him and said, "Hi, I see that you're good at Centipede."

'Cause a girl tried that on me last week.

[Nubs926]

That guitar part reminded me of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. a lot. :O

[HarryPartridge]

Darndest thing happened today, Some pretty girls came up to me and said 'Hi, I see your good at centipede'

[Booglabird]

loloolololololololol

[Dibrini]

isn't Howard Stern into Transcendental Meditation also?

[airons1972]

this looks brilliant. Love the guy playing the guitar. LOL

[biiiiiiiiiike]

i want the glory too

[Motega17]

is this supposed to be a mockumentary?

cause its hilarious

[HOLYSACRIFICE]

now that guy needs a record deal

[27istheNumber]

great music right there
