Power On: The Story of Xbox documentary now available

Check it out!

The Power On: The Story of Xbox documentary is now available to view in full over on YouTube.

Microsoft was kind enough to send through a screener of the six-part documentary’s first chapter, and I rather enjoyed what I saw.

Admittedly, the opening of Power On is probably the cringiest part, a little too pro-Microsoft for my liking. That thankfully quickly dies down for an engaging look at how the Xbox came to be over 20 years ago.

While the first chapter does have a lot of old white guys, I’m hoping subsequent chapters change that. Points for 343’s Kiki Wolfkill and Bonnie Ross though!

You can start the playlist below with “Chapter One: The Renegades”. Enjoy!

About the author

Steve Wright

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
