It would've been better if they called it the Xbox 3.

 

Or the 420.

It's even dumber than 'Wii U'... And that's saying a lot.

It's a stupid name, but so is Wii U. I think Wii U sounds worse.

This is the generation of uninmaginiative console names. But don't tell Sony.

I think it's a dumb name. I refer to the original Xbox as Xbox one. Now whenever I want to talk about the original Xbox I have to watch what I say because if I say Xbox one they might think I'm talking about Xbox One.

The name is bad. And unlike the name "Wii U", which some have called bad, this one will probably never catch on.

It's called Xbox One because they took 359 steps backward.

Yep...the name sucks

Still i doubt many that are new to gaming would get confused on the name, Microsoft will find a way to market properly.

It makes sense as they want it to be the ONE device in your living room (although they didn't make it backwards compatible) but casual gamers might not know that and might think it's the original Xbox.


Hi, my name is Alph. I live on a planet named Koppai. I am famous for saving my planet from starvation. My best friends are Brittany and Captain Olimar, NOT Captain Charlie. I like surfing the KopNet and playing Kopetball.

I agree the name isn't really grand, but why refer to the first one as Xbox One?

why do people think Xbox one>Wii U name wise? Xbox one causes more confusion imo.

It seems weird having  to call it XB One when it`s already the third.

That aside, it`s not a bad name.

I don't hate it, I think it's actually kind of a cool name. But I don't really care about the system itself so... yeah.

 

But I mean, it's better than Xbox 720, Xbox 3, or any of the other uninspired titles they easily could have given it.
