I think it's alright. Xbox One has a nice shortening to "X1",

In Japanese the phrase "X1" (batsu ichi) refers to a person who was divorced once. :P

Very poor name choice.
Calling your THIRD console "One"? Really?

I really didn't like it at first but over the past few days I've really warmed to it and now I actually like the name.

I think I might just call it, The One.

I was a little surprised at the name, but with so much about Infinity in Halo 4 I thought they really couldn't go for that name.

I'm already use to it, it's fine.

I can't stand XBone. Stop reading post when I see that.

But I truly can't stand the name 'Wii.' It's a made up work and a fake spelling in English. I find it really offensive and disrespectful (like spelling Micro$oft or Ke$ha.) For years I have called it 'The double You eye eye.' (Then I had it, and called it a Wii for a bit. ) now that I'm more of an Xbox gamer it's a 'Double You Eye Eye You.'

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned.

Tell me a funny joke!
