Microsoft website suggest next Xbox might be called the X8

An Xbox tutorial guide by Microsoft seems to suggest that the next Xbox might be called the X8 or Xbox Infinity.

The official Xbox website has tutorial pages that explain how to use various features of the Xbox 360. But what is interesting is that two pages refer to the X8. The Playing Games page has “Playing Games (includes X8)” and the Xbox Music page has ‘Listen to Music (includes X8).’ Which can be interpreted as meaning that the instructions apply to the X8 console as well as the Xbox 360.

Or... or.. you know... it could be...

...this.

Edit: What about this lol...

There's also a HTC WP8 phone called the 8X. I believe you can access some form of XBL from these as well as play music.

Thantalas4089d ago

Good point!
But it doesn't seem to fit in with the content of the how-to guide.

JoGam4089d ago (Edited 4089d ago )

How about Xbox Octo? Maybe not

GalacticEmpire4089d ago

If it has eight ARM processors then maybe :P

OhMyGandhi4089d ago

X8 sounds like a silent war jet that launches UFO's at targeted cities from outer space with needle-point precision.

greenpowerz4089d ago (Edited 4089d ago )

That's what it will be akin to LOL

EDIT

Got some people tailing me now disagreeing LOL

NeverEnding19894089d ago

lol M$ must be loving all this free publicity. Aren't we supposed to be talking about the PS4?

maniacmayhem4089d ago

Free publicity is better than no publicity right? I'm sure $ony is getting just as much buzz with Feb 20th around the corner.

coolmast3r4089d ago

Actually, I like this name! It really makes sense because of rumored Windows8-like UI and it just sounds good!

Bigpappy4089d ago

Yes. It is a good name. Lets see it they actually use it.

ahronith4088d ago

XLR8...Thats what they should call it.

peowpeow4088d ago

And its the 8th gen, it works. I'm keen to see the W8 integration/UI, that's one side I expect them to excel in

RuleofOne343 4089d ago

I vote for Xbox infinity way better than X8 in my opinion.

ziggurcat4089d ago

well, the 8 is shaped like the infinity symbol, so if any of this is true (which we won't really know until it's officially announced), the logo will be "X8" but the actual title will be "Xbox Infinity."

Used to love this one, but X-Men Legends 1 and 2 will always be my favorites, especially Rise of Apocalypse. Would pay some good money to play it today with online multiplayer, back then I had no way to get a modem

ZeekQuattro3h ago

I remember buying them dirt cheap on the PS4 and then a few days later I read they were delisted. I was wondering why the bundle was price so low and got my answer when that happened.

Sad to say this is one game franchise next to the Xmen that needs a sequel. I use to play the hell out of Xmen Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Was great when my cousin had the OG Xbox play with four other people and then playing online. Great games glad to see it reappear even though I own the discs love the mechanics of this game.

Terry_B57m ago

It got a sequel..but for dumbass #reasons as a switch exclusive.

shinoff218352m ago

It looked so horrible to. They should've kept it similar to the first two.

Asplundh36m ago

Because Nintendo funded it, they did the same for Bayonetta.

Knightofelemia19m ago

I totally forgot about the Switch sequel.

jukins47m ago

Misleading. This page is whats available for people who owned the game prior to delisting.

Abnor_Mal8m ago

The first game was the best imo.

There's a reason they're called 'gods' and not 'regular people'. It's nice they've diversified even more but gods looking godly wasn't exactly a glaring issue with the first game.

Juancho514h ago

Hey! Gods suffer from obesity and diabetes too!

Blastoise4h ago

This is the dumbest article I've read in a long time.

Michiel19893h ago

No one had an issue with that besides a very select group of people that try to push their own agenda.

Crows902h ago

Exactly. Not even sure they're necessarily committing to body diversity either.

The designs look fine not stupid.

Inverno2h ago

The writer of the this article clearly doesn't know what a real god looks like and has never seen them /s

Tody_ZA1h ago

Thanks for bringing up a bunch of garbage thoughts that never crossed my mind when playing the first game because I was too busy playing the game to worry about the portrayal of the physical bodies of gods.

Foolish me, when I read the title I thought we were talking about game mechanics.

Piss off, honestly, with this asinine bottom of the barrel try-hard-to-be-relevant trash.
