Fantastic series, really appreciate the willingness to take an honest look at the history, successes and failures, and being willing to share them with the world. I'm loving my Series X this generation and consider myself fully invested in the ecosystem again after stepping away during the Xbox One era. Kudos and well done to all involved.

I’m glad they realized they messed up can admit that and have since ditched the media idea

[@applehazeva2739]

Absolutely!

This whole documentary series was nothing but amazing and made me realize how much Xbox has done for the gaming industry and how much you have learned from your mistakes. Here's to the next 20 years.

Mad respect to Microsoft for admitting their mistakes as well.

Most documentaries are like that
