... Xbox 8...?


So far that's the new name for it.

Why yes of course, and why wouldn't it be?

8 because its running windows 8 and will be like windows phone 8 and tablet 8 etc.... all pushing the idea of simple platform accross all hardware.

8 could also be part of the earlier rumor of it beign called infinity (turn the 8 on its side).

This would make sence from a marketing perspective. They could advertise the Xbox Infinity by showing the Windows 8 logo. They could make the windows fade out leaving the 8. The 8 would flip to it's side and the Xbox logo would show up. They could emphasize the the conectivity with Windows 8 and the Windows 8 phone for the first year or so. When Windows moves past 8, they could just advertise it as the infinity. Windows 8 and beyond.

This idea could leave the marketing department with a lot of uses. Kind of like how the PS3 "Only does everything"
