Overview
Although technology continues to evolve, a group of die-hard gamers refuses to abandon the classic arcade games of yesteryear.

Portland gamer Bill Carlton is one of the most brazen, fearlessly taking on some of the toughest records on the books. HIGH SCORE follows Bill as he attempts to take down the Atari classic Missile Command and its twenty year-old record.
