This November 20, Atari: Game Over, will be coming to Xbox Live. Atari: Game Over is Microsoft's documentary that explores Atari's role in North America's console gaming demise of the 1980's.



From Windows Central:
Earlier this year, Microsoft sought to uncover the truth behind whether or not Atari dumped thousands of unsold E.T .cartridges into a New Mexico dump and create a film about it for Xbox Entertainment Studios. The urban legend started in 1982 when Atari had developers create E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial in only five weeks just to have it on shelves before Christmas. The game came to be known as one the worst games ever made due to horrible gameplay and game breaking bugs.
