Power On: The Story of Xbox

A must watch for gamers & non-gamers, very well made. I am a PlayStation fan but this made me respect the pioneers of Xbox.

It covers the history of Xbox from inception to modern day with all the mistakes & ups/downs.

Highlighting Xbox's commitment to building a culture & paying homage to the history they have built as a brand, Power On serves as a fantastically entertaining, honest & informative doc for the hardcore gamer.

The story is well told by people who were there & follows the thread of the rollercoaster ride that is Xbox & the wider console market. Hearing how senior execs at Xbox responded to all the bumps in the road from online gaming to the red ring of death to motion controls is fascinating.

Can't recommend it enough, A must watch for gaming fans.

If you like videogames you should watch this, even you prefer Playstation or Nintendo, this is still a great documentary to watch and learn how this great industry works and how much work it actually takes to build a console.

Nice story of Xbox's history, but plenty of blatant lies coming out of Xbox executives. Aaron Greenberg saying the 360 "basically won" that generation, just a stone cold lie. What does basically mean, because ps3 sold more consoles than 360. So ps3 won that generation, just like how ps2 sold more than the original Xbox. And how PS4 sold more than Xbox one and how ps5 is out seeking the Xbox series console.

Also when they talked about the Xbox one x having the best performance for a console, just factually wrong. Digital foundry has proven time and time again that Xbox had a resolution advantage over the PS4 pro, but not a performance advantage. Stats don't lie.

Same with the series x, they talk about power and performance, yet every test on games shows ps5 is hitting better fps than Xbox. Can't change numbers. Just because they built a on paper more powerful machine, real world performance is way different.

Guess Xbox is still waiting for the tools and that 30% advantage haha.

What can i say. Xbox nailed it again. A documentary, that every gamer and non would find exceptional. Very emotional for every Xbox fan i would say as well.

Thank you Microsoft for this gem, which i will be more than happy to tell everyone that is a must see, if you really want to know the industry, as it is.
