Confirmed name for next xbox

[bignds]

Games radar has said that the confirmed name for the nex gen xbox will be infact Xbox 360.
any comments?

Never got that name. Once more, do not believe any rumors until E3, when all will be revealed. The little that is known about the PS3, XBOX 360 (apparently), and Revolution (especially that one), are just rumors. BELIEVE NOTHING.

Any comments? well... the names rubbish. If it isn't round and global looking then Microsoft should be extrememly embarrased.

Yeah. Microsoft wishes to dominate the online market, but with the nintendo and playstation games having free online, and Microsoft having even MORE ways to have to pay for it, I doubt it will. Take a look at this. If this isn't proof of microsoft's capitolism and selfishness, I don't know what is.

"The company's online service has been a continued success, and there's no doubt it will be an even bigger part of Microsoft's future plans. There's money to be made online, and Microsoft wants to find it. Part of online integration into the next Xbox will be the introduction of "micro-transactions." These are small, impulse purchase for additional content into games people already own that will become an every day part of games on the next Xbox. "Imagine players slapping down $.99 to buy a one-of-a-kind, fully tricked-out racing car to be the envy of their buddies," says Microsoft. Also, expect to finally see download movies, music and other multimedia make a big splash on consoles."
