7. When something is 'new and improved!'. Which is it? If it's new, then
there has never been anything before it. If it's an improvement, then there
must have been something before it, couldn't be new

And would be a very nice way to get revenge on Sony for what they did to me and all the other Europeans and/or people that get an extremely bad consumer support in America.

Now i just need to know the price, i discovered it will have Live Silver which will not require subscription W00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000T!

I first need to think about it coz these have been months of suffering and worship to the PSP i cant just say no more PSP.. i need to come back to earth.

And BTW you cant be so sure Xbox will be released in Europe only in 2006?

Europe always gets consoles later and it won't be out here until November 2005 so...


Bungie said that Halo3 is definatly on the tables, but it wont be their next project. They will do somthing else and then halo 3.

On the note of the box i think X2 would have been a much better name.. (P.S Nintendo Revolutions isnt a great name either, reminds me of the matrix)

I like the name "XBOX 360" personally, it's very unique, and it comes in from all dimensions of the gaming world :banana:

i think they are probably trying to make a name that sounds on the same level as PS3, because xbox 2 would sound inferior to ps3

Thats a really good point I never thought of it that way.


I, personally do like the name of Xbox360 and i dont see why people dislike it. But i guess logically, it would suit a round unit better :undecided:

That's what I first thought when I herd it was going to be called Xbox 360. The 3 in it makes it sound like its at the same level as the PS3, as saralk said.

That's the whole reason behind it. They didn't want to go with "Xbox 2" bcz that sounds like it's 1 behind "PS3". It's a subliminal marketing gimick.

Or maybe both companies should drop "Xbox" AND "Playstation" and come up with better names which would represent REAL change :dodgy:
