Just saw a commercial for this.
Possible future problem or no biggie? I honestly don't know if this has been posted before, but it's basically the same freaking name.
This topic is locked from further discussion.
Don't think it would be much of a problem. The system is named xbox one(not x1), they have no control of what the fans choose to call it.zeroyaoiEven the official names are pretty damn close and now Xbox is gonna be doing stuff that Comcast's unit is doing.

Time will tell. Personally I don't think it's a big deal, but I don't know how comcast behaves when it comes to this sort of things. :P

Is comcast a litigious company? That could be a good indicator of whats to come.
That actually looks pretty badass... what's the price? Is it always online? heh...
seriously though... that looks sweet.. lol
[QUOTE="BPoole96"][QUOTE="Frostbite24"]F*ck Comcast. I call them C^ntcast. They are the worst company I've ever had to deal with.Frostbite24Yeah they really do suck. I pay for 35mbps download speeds and used to get them and then randomly my speed is basically capped at 22mp s. I called them about it and they sent a guy over and they said there was interference and "clutter" in the area that was slowing my speeds down and they would look into it. That was about 4-5 months ago and I still have 22mbpsI literally have the same "problem." They came out and said, "well since you live in a college town you're going to have reduced speeds because of all the traffic." I explained to them that I had the correct speed for a months and then all of a sudden my speed decreased. "Yeah, that's because of all the college students." I asked if he didn't hear me when I said that my speeds were fine before and then abruptly decreased which would belie the increased traffic because nothing would have change from before till now. "Umm well we're planning on installing more nodes in this area that should alleviate the burden all this traffic is putting on our infrastructure." I asked when. "They'll be up and running in about 6 to 8 months." ..........
The only thing that is good about them is their customer service is notoriously shitty so when i call up there and complain I tell them I am going to cancel unless they give me free subs HBO, Showtime, and Starz and they usually will give it to be for 6-8 months. What really pisses me off is that even though I have an HBO subscription, Comcast doesn't allow the use of HBO GO on things like Roku or Apple TV because they don't want people on there. If you have Time Warner, Cox, or Verizon, you can use HBO GO no problem.
I dont love the name but I dont see it really being a problem . It feels like there trying to be like sony cause will it start going xbox 2, xbox 3 just like playstation
I could have told you this would happen. Comcast is not pleased with MS treading on their territory Also, I think Smart TVs in the near future will give you nearly all the TV functionality that XBone gives, which is why I don't see it as a wise investmentBPoole96
Funny, since Comcast is a partnered with MS on the XBoxOne TV integration...:|

Agreed I want to get rid of them but there is no real worthwhile internet in town besides comcrap.
