For those who don´t know Microsoft will be announcing the new arrival of their next generation console on May 21st. The transmission will be broadcasted live through Xbox Live or through Xbox´s Official Site. We are not exactly sure what Microsoft is going to officially name their next gen console but there are a few names that have come up. The most known obviously is the Xbox 720 which could be the official title but no one is sure. Lets review the different names that have come up and their possibility.
First up is the Xbox 720, a title that mostly everybody has heard and believes the new console will be named. The truth about this ¨720¨ title is that it´s actually a fan-proclaimed name. Microsoft never gave a hint about naming their new console the Xbox 720. Some fan I imagine got the inspiration from the degree angle and just doubled the 360º thus becoming 720º. In my opinion, I highly doubt Microsoft will announce their new console the Xbox 720.
Next up is the Xbox Durango, a title that i´m sure would disappoint the Xbox Community. I mean Durango? Really? I don´t like the name one bit. It reminds me of the movie and has nothing to do with a next gen console. I could actually assure 99.9% that Microsoft will definitely NOT name their new console ¨Durango¨.
My personal favorite and the title that all my bets go to is: The Xbox Infinity! Here is a picture below that I found: (Courtesy of Reedit/C-Ron)
Could this name actually be the official title of Microsoft´s next gen console? I say yes. Of course I could be wrong but I take my chances with Xbox Infinity. I like the name and it describes what Microsoft is accurately trying to achieve with their next gen console. More names have come up but I just focused on the 3 more realistic titles worth mentioning.
What is your take on the official title? Leave a comment and stay tuned on May 21st.
XBox infinity while a great name, 720 should do. As with me, when i hear degree's titles like 360, it confuses me. DOn't get me wrong, I find the 360 a great system. But when you hear Xbox, then Xbox 360, so.. did microsoft make a system that did a 360 and landed in the same spot as before? a 180 is a turn where you are new, also, 720 would be that. Do a full 360 and add a 180, we should have something good here. Might as well add a moonwalk to this! XD
