If you've seen King Of Kong you'll either love or, more likely, hate Billy Mitchell. Now there's new controversy surrounding his high score claims.

Apparently his world record high scores appear to have been "achieved" playing on MAME rather than on an actual Donkey Kong games cabinet, which means he could have fudged the scores.

See the evidence here: http://www.twingalaxies.com/showthr...2dbc6ea35b7ac0&p=946633&viewfull=1#post946633

What do we think?

My favourite part of the evidence post is where he mentions running a poll of whether Billy Mitchell's scores should be dismissed and only 23 people voted lol, yet it's clearly serious business to those few.
