MAGFest Documentary Sets Stage For Next Installment

Posted by simoniker on from the want-one-shaped-like-a-dreamcast dept.

Thanks to an anonymous reader for pointing to information on a freely downloadable documentary about the MAGFest 2.0 videogame festival, which "took place... on October 31st to November 2nd of the year 2003... in Williamsburg, Virginia", and includes interviews with videogame remixers, fighting game champions, and footage from "an outstanding Minibosses set." The 155mb DivX is available via BitTorrent [direct link], and is produced by X-Strike Studios - it will be included as a bonus on their forthcoming unofficial River City Rumble DVD, described by a delighted previewer as "the Citizen Kane of films based on martial-arts video games." The documentary also servers as a trailer for this year's MAGFest, to be held "Friday through Sunday, the 1st through the 3rd of October... [also] in Williamsburg, VA."

    I really want to go this year, but it's a 30 hour drive away from where I live, and it costs to much to fly down for a few days.
