Dog Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 News released about 30 minutes ago the new xbox 720 may not be named xbox 720. Microsoft have 3 names deciding on Xbox 720. Xbox Next. Or xbox 8. They get xbox 720 from 360 +360. They got Xbox 8 from the new windows 8 operation and the windows 8 phone. They were calling the next xbox next because its talking about a next generation xbox. Microsoft had another Xbox name just regular 'Xbox' they frown on that since most customer will get confused with the original Xbox.

MCPO Mayh3m Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 I think most have known that Xbox 360's predecessors possible name could be Xbox 8, which I actually like. Xbox next doesn't sound too bad either. But I don't think it will be called Xbox 720. Simply because that's a bit too obvious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midnight walker Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 Xbox 720 FTW. Xbox 8 is cool but could throw some people off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WonderWombat Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 Xbox Next is the worst. The others are good enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Source- http://m.latinospost...nsole-named.htm I like Xbox 720, though it is not too original, neither is 360 lol...at least 720 has something in common with its predicessor. Xbox 8 sounds way too M$, and Xbox next is too meh I suppose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vazdan64 Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 Either Xbox 720 or Xbox Nexus would sould cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hᴜᴍᴘsᴛʏʟᴇs Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 Xbox Next? Would the successor be the Xbox After Next? And then the Xbox Next After Next? ERMAHGERDDD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Bashful Brute Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 Xbox 720 FTW. Xbox 8 is cool but could throw some people off. Agreed. 720 sounds cool, and Xbox 8 could lead some people to believe that they somehow missed out on 4 consoles. xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinyl Scratch Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 We should all go back to original xbox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iTz Vplus2 Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 Xbox Next sounds pretty dumb because every console from now on could be the next Xbox. I just don't like it. Xbox 8 is even more stupid though. This won't be the 8th Xbox, so why name it Xbox 8? Just because Windows 8 is out? No. Xbox is a console, not an OS. Seperate product. Just calling it Xbox is bad too, because as the OP stated, that'd be too easily confused with the original Xbox. Xbox 720 is still the best option by far. It sounds cool and it makes sense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Real Talk Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 As said above ^ Xbox 8 is blah. Xbox 720 is not great but its fine, better than the others currently. They need more imagination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
