it should be called just XBOX.

The original XBox was just the XBox. You have something to differentiate each generation. Yes Microsoft is using "XBox" as their brand for gaming, but the question would be how to differentiate the original, from the 360, with the new one due out.

Also, less than 20% of people who filled out the poll think the next Microsoft platform will be called XBox 720. Have to be curious what percentage who don't think it is that, call it that.

The name XBox 720 really annoys me for some reason so I hope not.
Maybe because it's just too creative.

I think what may be lending fire to it catching on was the movie Real Steel having XBox 720 banner in it:

But, outside of this, I have to wonder why people are going with it.
