It's OK but it doesn't seem to flow off the tongue for me. "Xbox Infinity" makes me think of a cross between a Nissan and Toy Story. Just saying "Infinity" doesn't sound right, while "Xbox Infinity" is a bit unwieldy.

I liked "Xbox Fusion" the most.

U are simply not used to it.

I mean   Play station four   or Play  Station Vita    is not much better than Xbox infinity.  And dont forget  Super Nintendo Entertainment System

As long as someone can find a way to shorten it up like most do now with ps2, ps3, and ps4, people will forget all about it not rolling off the tongue.  No one will ever type or say the full name.

Still a rumor until the 21st, but there's nothing wrong with the name. Just like there's nothing wrong with the names of ANY CONSOLE EVER RELEASED. Seriously, why go through this silly dance every time when the name is one of the least important things?

The ONLY time that I think a name has worked AGAINST a gaming console is the Wii U. Too many think it's just an accessory for the Wii and not a new console. Time will fix that though, as it did with the similarly confusing 3DS.

First Durango, now Infinity - what is it with Microsoft and car types/brands?

Should've just called it the Saturn... oh, wait...

Or what about the X8ox

Nice! I think that's a great way to abbreviate it.

Nextbox doesn't even have Xbox in the name and they've been working hard to push the Xbox brand everywhere.
