i prefer:

Xbox ∞

would be better than calling it the "Xbox 720".



I like Xbox Infinity.  Always assumed 'Xbox 3' was never really on the table since they didn't go with 2 for the 360, it wouldn't make much sense to start now.



The Screamapillar is easily identified by its constant screaming—it even screams in its sleep. The Screamapillar is the favorite food of everything, is sexually attracted to fire, and needs constant reassurance or it will die.

God I hope not! Just leave it as "720".


But 720 doesn't even make sense. Microsoft went with 360 because it meant that the console was not just for games. It meant that it would be a "well rounded" entertainment center. The name Xbox Live makes sense if Microsoft plans to have a console that is also connected.  

Well that's the PR reason. The consumer psychology (i.e. the real) reason is that Xbox 2 doesn't sound as "advanced" as Playstation 3. With Xbox 360 they got to put a 3 in the name.

Shouldn't it be "Xbox Metro", or "Windows Xbox 8" (WX8)?

Xbox Infinity, Xbox Durango, Xbox Live. It has a lot of names now ;)



hmm, maybe, but I don't think so. They need to give it a brand new name,
