But that's dumb (Gaming)

I was originally going to put "Thoughts on the Series X, which I will still call the Xbone" as my title, because I've been calling it that without fail every time my brother and I discuss it, but that character limit in the subject (Claude, why do you hate us?). Yeah, I don't think I'll ever be able to train myself to do it right.

Xbone was funny because everyone hated the shitty name Xbox One. They probably wanted people to call it "The One" like we all said "The 360", but that backfired spectacularly.

Xbox One
X-b-one
Xbone

It rolls off the tongue and takes the piss out of the stupid name. Loved it.

But the new console is called the Series X. Saying Xbone for that doesn't make any sense.
