Will the PS4 and Xbox 720 actually be called PS4 and xbox 720?

if you understand the creation of the name Xbox, it makes perfect sense.slvrraven9

Sure, but being stupid with a purpose is almost as bad as just being stupid.

Why would the next xbox be called 720?

PS4 and Xbox420. Calling it now.

PS4 is guaranteed.

720 would be the failest name ever.

i think its kind of cheesy to keep going up by the number, maybe a new name? I suggest Playstation Evolution and Xbox .... hmm tough to think of one for xbox.

I don't understand why anyone would assume the next Xbox would be called the 720. That has to be one of the most ridiculous rumours I have ever heard in SW, and it is just sad some people would believe it. There has only been TWO Xbox's...the Xbox and teh Xbox 360. There is absolutely NO evidence that the "360" name is part of a trend that MS would continue.

Meanwhile, I can totally understand the PS4 name. However, I don't think Sony will keep with the numbers after 3. I think they will keep the PLaystation name and then go with a second name more like Nintendo or MS do.

PS4 will be the PS4 no doubt. Why change a formula that has worked for them. I think the Xbox 3 will be called something other than Xbox 720.

It's my understanding that MS didn't call the Xbox 360 Xbox 2 because they didn't want people to confuse it with the PS2 so they came up with 360 because it was supposed to be a complete entertainment experience, just like 360 degrees is a full circle. So I doubt they will go with 720. It really doesn't make sense, 2 full circles?

I'd go with X3 if it was me. The Microsoft X3 gaming system. Sounds like a sleek fighter jet. Sounds better than Xbox 3 any day.

No, it will be called the Playstation Quad. ;)

playstation will be ps4 and i dont know about xbox

I once heard that "4" in Japan means "Death", so I don't think it will be called the PS4. I also think it's very unlikely that MS will call their next console the Xbox 720.

It will probably be PS4. And Xbox 720 is just god awful stupid. But then again the name 'Xbox' is stupid in itself, so I dunno.

Here are some ideas of epic failness:

Xbox4Ever
Xbox Infinity
Xbox 4 minus 1
Xbox GR (for graphics)
Xbox 3
XboXOD (of death)
NeXtBox
Super Xbox
Xbox Saturn
Xbox 64
Xbox Grand
Xbox DS
Xbox 3D
Xbox Ps4 Equivelent
Xbox 4JK (as in "Just Kidding" its actually xbox 3)
Xbox Reach
Xbox Reborn
Xbox ....

In all honesty, if Sony does NOT use PS4, because of the taboo of 4 meaning death, then I can see Xbox using Xbox 3 (or X3) seeing as they don't have a number to compete with.

XBOX Vision, because it will probably do 3D

NatalVision?

PS3D if ''4'' means ''death'' in japan. Although they could call it PS4 everywhere except Japan, SEGA Mega Drive was Genesis in america.

The name Playstation goes well for Sony I don't think they need to change as for Xbox I think MS could come up with a new name for their next console.Star650

i really think microsoft is going to come up with a weird name with they're next xbox console. xbox 360 or xbox 3 doesn't work at all.lawlessx

Ok ps4 is a given. As long as microsoft doesn't call its system the xbox U who cares what its called.

lol dude I love it neXt Box. THey should totally call it that.

PS4 is likely and maybe Xbox The Fable of Halo's Forza

OLD Thread lol. I was 19 when I posted in it. 21 now...

1) Xbox 720 was a Code Name for Project Natal the fist ever mention of the Next Xbox was by Epic they just call it Next Gen Xbox

2) PS4 was mention by many Game websites not a official name just the Fact that 4 comes after 3

and XBOX comes from DirectX the original name of Xbox was going to be DirectXbox because Xbox look like a box then Shoten to Xbox thats why Xbox and Xbox360 have Advance DirectX futures from DX10 and DX11

DirectX being in the Hends of Microsoft they always give Xbox Advace DX futures before Retail PC

360 its another name for 3D full Cycle base on Grafic Arts

Bumped thread!:shock:

Even if they are PS4 and XBox 720, it's better than a retarded name like Wii U.

Sony had already shown they appear happy with just numbering their systems. MS establishes a brandname(ie xbox, Windows,) and varies the identifier that goes with it (Windows 3.1, Windows 95, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7.....Xbox, Xbox 360, ????).

PS4 Yes. Xbox 720, not a chance. I'd go so far as to say that the next xbox won't have a number in it at all, it'll be something like Xbox Evolved, Xbox Revolution, or something like that.

Ok ps4 is a given. As long as microsoft doesn't call its system the xbox U who cares what its called.
