10 Best Video Game Documentaries Of All Time

6. Ecstasy Of Order: The Tetris Masters

Released: 21 October 2011

A group of Tetris players prepare themselves for the first ever Classic Tetris World Championship. This 93 minute documentary explores their journey, the history of Tetris and what makes Tetris one of the most popular video games of all time.

Super-fan Robin Mihara makes it his mission to gather all the greatest Tetris players in one location so they can compete face to face. These include the only players to ever max out classic Nintendo Tetris and the legendary Thor Aackerlund who claims to have reached the mythical level 30. It's a humorous documentary that also packs a lot of heart.
