X180 doesn't have anything to do with Xbox one, so X1 or Xbox One are the only logical names for it.



"XXI" Like the Super Bowl :D



Good luck not getting moderated if you intend to use X180.



EDIT: pfff why do I even bother....

When you actually think about it

Nintendo Entertainment System NES
Super Nintendo Entertainment System SNES
Nintendo 64 N64
GameCube GC *
GameBoy GB
GameBoy Color GBC
GameBoy Advance GBA
PlayStation Portable PSP
PlayStation Vita PSV
PlayStation1 PS1
Playstation2 PS2
PlayStation3 PS3
PlayStation4 PS4
DreamCast DC
MegaDrive MD
Commodore 64 C64
PC Engine PC-E
TurboGrafix16 TG-16 (US name for PC-E)
etc.


all are named after the first letter of each word + number in case of a number being present and used with 0-9 instead of words.

So the only option for XBoxOne would be XBO


* or NGC or GCN (coz some think NGC is NeoGeoPocketColor even tho It would be NGPC)


Quoted for well actually the only logical way to call it which is XBO.

Btw you cant just "pass it" within 2 days rofl.

Btw. X180 will never be adopted by anyone outside of vgchartz because its somewhat insulting.  XBO might because it is based on the old naming system. Dont you guys want to be the reason why the whole world uses the same name? :(



X540 is by far the best name.



Well I will never use Xbone, that's for sure. X1 is simple and useful. Or why not Xbuxuru wunuru.



X1 is the name of the gaming set-top box that comcast is making isn't it?

xbox 360 for me was 360

xbox one should be xone or maybe just "one" xb one doesn't make sense since it was never xb 360 

just "one" seems odd and a bit pretentious

xone sounds and looks cooleer

I will permaban myself if the game releases in 2014.

in reference to KH3 release date

Almost a double post but what the heck.

Since the name of the brand is Xbox, with one capital letter being X that gives us X and the version is called One, that gives us the option to call it XO or X1. The only, in my opinion, correct ways to refer to it in short.

I don't understand why people call it Xbone, why leave out just two letters and make One in lower case letter when the O should be capital. Because it's not called Xbox Bone or X Bone, it's called Xbox One. You are not saying Xb One, you are saying X Bone. And to say Xb makes to sense either, since Xb "eksb" is really strange, you are not saying two letters separate by using b in lower case. X-B One can be said, but Xb is not XB.

Please do correct me if my English skills are lacking here, but this is what I have been taught.
