Cool name, I approve. Much better than Durango, which sounds like a brand of Mexican off-road tyre or something.

Durango is the name of a Mexican state

And I like the name

You learn something new everyday.

To me it didn't sound "clean" or "polished" enough to suit a high-tech piece of gaming hardware.

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

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


How about Xbox fusion? oh wait. Ford Fusion.

It's the best choice of the ones I've heard.



Have some time to kill? Read my shitty games blog. http://www.pixlbit.com/blogs/586/gigantor21

I'd forgotten about Fusion, I think I actually like that one best of all.

Quick Google search, not a very original sub name

Asus Padfone Infinity
Notebook Infinity
Always Infinity
TD Infinity
MS Infinity
Infinity box

Same is true for PS Vita ofcourse, not the best name either.

Yup. Looks like Microsoft was destined to get hell from either Dodge, Ford or Nissan no matter what route they took.

I actually like the name ... you can't please everyone though (especially this site).



Everyone needs to play Lost Odyssey! Any opposition to this and I will have to just say, "If it's a fight you want, you got it!"

neXbox or nothing!


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

I knew of this service already. I just like the name. We'd use xfinity for the neXbox a lot more than the link you provided. Especially on a site like this. The confusion would be small.
