Xbox 8

There is a thing I learn with the show Pretender. Eight sideways is the simbol for infinite.

infinite > 360

So there is a good chance that is the codename of the new Xbox. Probably not the final one because chances are Microsoft will still make field research for the final name.

What do they do for the generation after that? Because infinity plus or times any other number just equals infinity.

It's just another dashboard update. You heard it here first.

Maybe it's a vertically placed infinite symbol, to mislead you into believing it's called Xbox 8. XBOX INFINITE

I'm going to join you guys, but boy infinity does sound like a lame car model

I hope they pull a kinect/natal on this one and turn it into something even more generic

Xbox J8lb8t.

why does the name even matter?

INB4 XBOX8MYDISC

Xbox 8 My Neighbours

This is very common practice amongst large corporations. I wouldn't read too much into it.

Xbox 8: Resurrection

I don't know which is worse: XBOX 720 or XBOX 8

Both are fine! You could call it the Microsoft Family Home Entertainment Centre and I wouldnt care. All I care about is whats in the box.

X8OX forever!

It's probably someting for 360 so you can use Win 8 stuff on it or like sync and shit who knows.

I thought about it be called xbox 8 as a joke once, but the more I think about it the more it makes sense and the more I like it.

Kinect-u!

Why not going one step further with X80X?

X8X?

So let's say they will release xbox 8 with a lifespan of 10years. There will be like windows 12 in 10 years and xbox 8 ? :lol:

I am pretty sure it will be Xbox something.

Xbox 20XX

I feel like this is most likely to be true. X8OX Infinite running a modified windows 8. Microsoft has been trying to get windows on your TV for years. They win.

I'd be fine with the name Xbox 8, it's at least uniform.

I'm pretty sure they're just registering the domain name just incase though. It's obvious enough that squatters will try and take it.

Xbox Google.

Christ, Xbox 8 could be the name of the third Xbox. You know what, fuck that, I'm getting a Playstation.

Its a vertical infinity symbol? Xbox Infinity, I'd buy that for a dollar( or $400)!

I guess if you consider that thing between the '7' and '9' on your keyboard to be the "Vertical infinity symbol button"

haha well it makes more sense then calling "Xbox 8". Trying to think a bit outside the box over here!

Xbox: Origins.

Whatever they call it, I hope it has Vevo!

Cre8 should be the title of a launch game. 
 
Or S8an.  
Maybe F8. L8. 
Wait: Cre8 F8 With S8an. 
I just realised: W8. 
G8s of S8tan. 
 
S8an w8s for l8 m8 by the g8.  
 
I'm getting obsessed.

I hate the fact the new Xbox will have their shitty Metro interface, or well, an expanded one on what it has now. I can only see the ad situation getting worse.

It's such a ballache to find, buy and manage games on the current 360 dash, you'd think it's just a media streamer.

They should use the codename for the xbox 360

Xbox: The Third

I'll just leave this here:

bradshoemaker

If this Xbox 8 thing turns out to be real, I called that name last year. Mark it down!

You heard him, people: mark it down!

Seems plausible for Xbox "Windows 8" or Xbox Infinity. If they make the Next Xbox an all-in-one media device I would be very happy. Imagine being able to play games and use the Xbox as a cable box. Along with having work with other devices.

Xbox Service Pack Three

I've always liked "NextBox" as the name.

Xbox 8 for the game console, Xbox infinity for the streaming service box. Latter being a cheap subscription only option

X80X

Microsoft Dolphin

XBOX8MYHOMEWORK

PlayStation 9 all right.

It really should just be called XBox. That's what I call my XBox 360, though some weirdos do seem to call it just 360. I don't think we really need special designations anymore when console generations are lasting 10 years.

THE XBOX.

Xbox Infinity baby!
