We wrote about the
fantabulous arcade documentary
Chasing Ghosts: Beyond the Arcade when it premiered at Sundance in 2007, and we featured interviews with
director Lincoln Ruchti and
producer Mark Verrachia. It's been a long road for the film -- which was playing in Park City against
The King of Kong at Slamdance -- but now you can finally see it.
Chasing Ghosts is on Showtime this month -- in HD, no less -- and has
three more showings through the end of December. Set your DVRs for "capture" and have yourself a little screening party. It's well worth seeing and features everyone's favorite/most hated gamer, Billy Mitchell. With any luck, we'll see this on Netflix or DVD soon, because playing this on your Xbox 360 or PS3 will surely make the space-time continuum fold in on itself.
