Amazing score of course, but leave to Ploygon to come through with the click bait title.

I know. Chat on the DK Shoutbox about this "perfect" game has been fun to read. I watched the last half of Wes' stream live, and it was just about as perfect a game as you can have, but still, it's not perfect. While I think this record will stand for a long time, I wouldn't be surprised to see Lakeman beat it one day. Well-phrased by Polygon to get the clicks.

To be fair, they meant perfect game as in losing no lives.

Which I also find interesting, since he had to sac at the end, therefore dying, and I'm sure there were points he left on those barrel boards, though not many. I can't imagine anyone playing much better. I'd be happy to get half his score. Don't get me wrong, I've watched him play 100 games or more, and what Wes has accomplished is unbelievable. Grinding, day in and day out, squeezing a hundred points here and a hundred points there. I mean, just look at what he did a few months ago - someone was running their mouth about no one getting a million here at RU, and what does he do? Just comes to RU, puts up a million like it's nothing.
