I don't think Microsoft chose it? And isn't XOne easier? Looks cooler too and the Xbox 360 wasn't called XB360 either, it was X360. Sure a little off-topic but hey important nontheless haha.

Xone is pejorative here... seems like a male version of the woman genitalia (if that is possible).

Edit - You will ever see anybody here saying "Vamos em casa jogar Xone..."  (Let's play Xone at home).

Edit - I laughed just writing the phase


Funny because here in the states people say bone to describe having sex.  Let's bone or we boned as examples.  Most likely coming from the word boner, as a word for erect penis.  It works the same way as saying screw or fuck.  Which also doubles as a insult or a negative.  Like your screwed or your effed.  People will say your boned.   So xbone sounds either weirdly sexual or insulting.  MS embraced the term but I for one don't say it out loud as it sounds Stanley perverse.  No one want to say " hey you want to check out my xbone, or do you want to play with my xbone."

 

on topic:  I think there's a good shot at it, but it will be close either way.  I put my money on no difference greater than 100k

We know sex is such a problem in USA (sometimes to a point that the rest of the world wonders why you fight ayatollahs and talibans instead of being buddies with them ), but don't demand it become the same everywhere else!
