Next gen Xbox: rumours, speculations, wild pipe dreams!

[Barking_Mad]

Definitely a 1.8mhz chip in the new X-Box 720

 

[Sunray]

I hope they call it something other than 720. XBox Omega or Ninja or something cool sounding. 720 is an Atari Video game from the 80's.

Yeah it's just a patent, but fuck me.

EIDT: Oh. A sony one. Well. Scuse me.

 

[mwgdrwg]

Rumours are that it's just going to be called "Xbox".

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Yeah I heard this, quite like the idea tbh, these things come out roughly 7-10 years so there's little chance of name confusion...

This reminds me of a Perry Bible Fellowship cartoon without the sad ending.

Hmm, ok, but a tag word would be better.

XBox Wrong'un?

I like the simplicity of just calling it Xbox...

Crap name if true.

 

[ChrisFilter]

It's something the new Samsung does too, looks like a feature that aint going away sadly...

Why 'sadly'? My experience of these sorts of interfaces is very positive.

From someone who loves shiny novel things that's not saying much really. It's a gimmick.

 

[skyscraper101]

Crap name if true.

I quite like it. Although 'Infinity' isn't exactly original these days. Eg. BT Infinity

Remember when we played games?

It's a meaningly name, at least with 360 that alludes to space and movement in a 3D environment...it just sounds...cheesy.

 

[fractionMan]

Considering the crap names nintendo have had recently you'd think they'd put more effort in.

You're joking, right? Eye control is a gimmick? Or are you just referring to that specific implementation?

 

[Callum91]

Xbox Zero sounds good, I reckon. That'll be £20,000,000 please, Microsoft.

 

[tommers]

Xbox : Warfighter.

 

[The Boy]

neXtBox360

And I'll only charge half as much as Callum91.

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Xbox : Warfighter.

Hehe.

I quite like just ''NextBox''

I also want it in high gloss chrome.
