"After 20 incredible years, I have decided to take a step back and work on the next chapter of my career. As I take a moment and think about all we have done together, I want to thank the millions of gamers around the world who have included me as part of their lives.

"Also, thanks to Xbox team members for trusting me to have a direct dialogue with our customers. The future is bright for Xbox and as a gamer, I am excited to see the evolution.

"P.S. The official Xbox Podcast will be taking a hiatus this Summer and will come back in a new format."

Damn, tbh I didn't realize he was still around. Back in 2008 or so, in the 360 days, he'd pop up every month or so in the Xbox dashboard and show case new games or hype up project natal or whatever. Those were magical times. o7

That's wild! I never played on Xbox, so I didn't follow up with Xbox news too often, but Major Nelson was undeniably a major presence in the gaming scene for a long time.
