jago Posted December 10, 2003 Share Posted December 10, 2003 they should call it halo machine, considering thats the only game worth playing on it TO give it some credit...which is a stretch for me b/c even tho I own the machine, I still hate it...Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic & Panzer Dragoon Orta and some DAMN FINE games.

waphle Posted December 10, 2003 Share Posted December 10, 2003 YBox? or perhaps Xsphere or considering the recent renaming of the Pocket PC OS... Windows Multimedia and Gaming Device 2005 XBox Next is not catchy enough... can't really imagine it being used. XN perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mart3ll Posted December 10, 2003 Share Posted December 10, 2003 X2, the 2 being "Squared" as an elevated exponent at the end would be best I think. Like X-Men 2. Then X3, Xbox "Cubed". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I pointed out in the Starcraft 2 thread...companies register all kinds of website URL's and 99% of them never get used. I think they just do it so people don't give that company a bad name.

ctebah Posted December 10, 2003 Share Posted December 10, 2003 yeah, since it's still an xbox, i think it should have "xbox" in it's name, thus xbox 2 doesn't sound so bad. if it was another console then it would but since it's still xbox just a newer version, it need to correspond.

Boffa Jones Veteran Posted December 10, 2003 Veteran Share Posted December 10, 2003 what do you mean its still an xbox? all the nintendo systems are jsut the new nintendo system but they generally have new names. other than gbas. and super nintendo...

linked Posted December 13, 2003 Share Posted December 13, 2003 Knowing MS, it will end up being called Winamp. Now, I'll explain myself- There'll be a big, long fiasco before they do that. Like, it'll start as Xbox2. Then they'll change that to XPBox. Windows XP Box. Windows Box. Windows Box Extreme. Windows Box Amplified. Windows Amplified. Oh, hell, let's call it Winamp! (You know something rediculous is going to happen. You know it will. Not Winamp, maybe, but something else just equally silly.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
