PS4, duh. Xbox... umm... 720?

With the 360 did they add 359 to the Xbox or were they multiplying by 360?

Depending on whether they are adding or multiplying, my guesses are Xbox719 or Xbox129600.
 
i dont understand the logic for people calling it the xbox 720

xbox
xbox 360

it wasnt called xbox 180, the PS3 isnt double the PS2 (PS4) etc, it makes no sense

They didn't want to put "XBox 2" up against "Playstation 3." By naming it "XBox 360," you have a "3" in the title as well.

I had never seen this explanation before, it actually makes sense.
 
Xbox 720 makes some sense because it's an easy name to market. "The next revolution" and all.

Just a hunch but I imagine when it comes time to seriously work on building the next generation Xbox, there is going to be a lot of political infighting at Microsoft over what it should be. There will be camps demanding it be HD and focused on "core" gamers, camps demanding it be a Wii clone, and even camps saying to not waste their time with another console.
 
Oh come on, what's wrong with you people?

There is only one name Microsoft should (re-)use for their next generation console.

And it's a pretty good one. Games like Metal Gear were established on this platform. How can this be a bad thing?
