Metal Ghost Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I watched this with my wife last night, and I'd highly recommend it. Now, it's only 66 minutes long, so don't go in thinking that this is going to explore every last facet of the Atari implosion. But it's a great watch, especially with someone who's not a geek themselves. It's available for free on Xbox One and Xbox 360. If you have an Xbox, go watch it! Also, I think on X1 you can either watch it through Xbox Video, or in a stand alone app. We watched in Video, but through the stand alone app I think there are additional videos you're able to watch as well? I downloaded the app but didn't really play around with it at all. Just an FYI, in case someone wants to go that route, perhaps they can chime in on the App viewing experience.

+Ripdubski Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I watched it yesterday as well. Worth the watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregory DG Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Haven't been able to watch it. Silverlight won't play on my PC and my Xbox just wants to update Xbox Video over and over... Will be looking for a Torrent I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VectorGamer Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Good flick. HSW liked my Tweet: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBP Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Gregory DG - did you find a torrent? I am struggling to find one. To give an example of how stupid DRM in general is, I had to run up a virtual machine on my Mac and install an illegal copy of Windows 8 so I could watch the damn documentary - all because Microsoft have tied it down with DRM so much that only Xbox Video users can watch it. Now I am trying to find a way to de-DRM the movie file so I can watch it properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg2600 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 I never found a torrent, and Xbox Video on PC just will not work for me. I open the video and it just has a spinning circle. The trailer works, but I cannot get any movies to run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldSchoolRetroGamer Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 To date still same issues as Greg2600, any browser (IE / Firefox / Chrome) all up to date, Silverlight installed and up to date, but on both PC and laptop just keeps loading and loading.......geez Microsoft get your shit together. If I could find it hosted elsewhere I'd have downloaded it by now. Actually really surprised nobody has bothered to torrent or upload elsewhere. The worst part is I never really wanted to see it that much but knowing I SHOULD be able to watch it and continuing failure to do so just drives me friggin nuts. If ANYONE finds a different source PLEASE POST A LINK, if not allowed PM it to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg2600 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I believe MS have simply disabled all Silverlight (aka PC) driven Xbox video due to security holes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldSchoolRetroGamer Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I believe MS have simply disabled all Silverlight (aka PC) driven Xbox video due to security holes. Well if so they should simply remove the option or at least post a message stating so (or whatever excuse they care to give to cover it up) because as it is it simply appears to be a failure on their part.

Greg2600 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 But it's Microsoft, so it's never their fault or problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBP Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I never got it working on any device that wasn't Windows 8 - spinning circle of doom and nothing more, although the trailer played ok. The video plays fine on my buddy's Win8 machine and on my Win8 virtual machine on the Mac. I wonder why it isn't up on the torrent sites yet - seems strange. Maybe Micro$ofts DRM is genuinely unhackable. What we need is someone with an XBox to record it using their AV Output and a capture card... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregory DG Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Gregory DG - did you find a torrent? I am struggling to find one. Nope, I tried several days later on the Xbox and it worked. Totally not worth the wait though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro Rogue Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Nope, I tried several days later on the Xbox and it worked. Totally not worth the wait though. You really think so? This was the first documentary to really cut through some of the long told myths though. Granted, it didn't do it until the very end.
