Never understood why "Xbone" is offensive or childish... That's how I've always called it. XB(ox)one.

EDIT: After thinking about this for a while, the word "box" no longer sounds natural to my ears. Thanks, MS.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

Xbone. Such a good name. Better than other two consoles.

X1 since its the faster to type.

XBO - Ill often just say XB or Xbox. As long as people know what im talking about

Xbone is pretty childish usually used by people who have a bias against it.  Dont really get offended by it, but i usually dont take those people seriosly either

Dude people are going to call it what they want to, and if people don't like the "Xbone" name then they can blaime MS for naming it with such a ridiculous name...



Mr_No on 04 February 2015

I had in mind to refer to the console as the Xbone, but I don't want to get banned out of nowhere. So I just call it X1.

Xbone: Seems to have stuck as the official abbreviation, but I don't like it because it's derogatory and offends people

XBOne: Long and hasn't caught on


Lol, what?

 

I use X1. Usually just type Xbox One though.

What is derogatory about Xbone?
