What are suitable names for the next Xbox, I think 720 and 180 are unlikely but people still seem to use it. The reason for 360 was a surrounded gaming experience for everyone.

So what are suitable names for the next xbox?

No, 360 was because of market research.
Actually, the closest was the argument that "we took a look at where we were going, and decided it was already the right direction"- instead of pulling a 180, they pulled a 360. Also, "3"60 competes with the Playstation 3. Having Xbox 2 versus PS3 would put X2 at a disadvantage. Not to mention the ring of light, the rounded design, etc. Peter Moore and others have gone over some of the factors before.

I think the next system will be named. It'll be PS4 versus Xbox Next or Xbox Zephyr or Xbox Robert or Xbox Gundam Zero or (you get the idea). But they will keep the Xbox as part of the name- it won't be NeXtBox because that loses the "Xbox" brand identity.

None of them are serious and you would know that if you were paying attention to the thread.

They're mocking names.

X3 somehow has too much relation to xbox 360

Xenon doesnt make sense

and Xbox next sounds good

The console that doesn't RROD...hopefully a japanese company will make their next console like Toshiba or Panasonic.

Yeah, because Sony did so well with the first-run PS1, PS2, and PSP right?
360 is more prone to issues because of a design flaw. And in fact, it was made in Asia, probably at or near the same factories that made PS3 and Wii, so that's bogus anyway

ANYTHING BUT 720.

The initial name of the 360 was Xbox Next - I like that well enough.

Since it will be the third Xbox, perhaps something like "X3."
