Gryph Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 Seems like that may be the name of the next XBOX...http://www.engadget.com/entry/1234000760030410/ And boy is it a stupid name.
BoomBa_GoosE Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 is there a significance to that number? did i miss something? i always thought x-box next sounded pretty neat. xbox 360...mouthful...
Gryph Posted February 5, 2005 Author Posted February 5, 2005 I have no idea what the significance is. 3D objects can be rotated 360 degrees...but it's not the first 3D capable system.
NeuronMaster Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 I guess it beats the standard 2..times 180
BlackKnight Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 This is just stupid... they probly just want to make it sound more high tech than Playstation 3... this is 360. Stupid idea.
Agozer Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 Wow, that's stupid. I kinda would have understood if the names was 180, but 360 just brings it back to where it was.
Gryph Posted February 5, 2005 Author Posted February 5, 2005 They should just do what Winamp did. "XBOX 3...so good we skipped a number."
NeoMaster Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 Looks like Microsoft skipped 359 numbers because it was so good?
Agozer Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 Looks like Microsoft skipped 359 numbers because it was so good? Microsoft has always had flawed reasoning for some features of their products.
Shibathedog Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 hehe, they are probably choosing such a long name so their logo slapped on the console can be bigger
Thraxen Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 Seems like a stupid name. I hope that number has some sort of meaning behind it. It may seem more acceptable if they have a good reason for using it.
Leathel Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 Seems like a stupid name. I hope that number has some sort of meaning behind it. It may seem more acceptable if they have a good reason for using it.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> bah - that's just a plain stupid name oO - Maybe they are trying to comete with ferrari? PCXBOerrmmm XBOX 2 is much better than this. 2nd generation <- i luv this face - lmao. anywho, it's retarded
AntiWinner22 Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 No freagin' way. There are also other designs that have been considered, kids, like the XBOX Next or the XBOX 2, which also have pictures; better than the photoshop XBOX 360 design on Gryph's link. Rumor is the key word. Nintendo Dolphin, anyone remember that? Sega Kitana, how about that? Just wait till E3. Answers will come then. Anon.
