Major Nelson thinks 'Xbone' nickname is disrespectful
"I don't like it," Hryb replied when asked on NeoGAF what he thought of the nickname.
"It disrespects the teams that have put in thousands of hours (already) into the development of the product. Sure, it's cheeky but I don't care for it myself."
Gamers branded the upcoming console the Xbone shortly after its reveal back in May.
And it appears to have hit the mainstream, too. Snoop Lion referred to the console as the "Xbone" during a Reddit AMA last week.
Some have since renamed the console the Xbox One-Eighty, following Microsoft's multiple U-turns.
Xbox One launches on November 22.

I think Xbox Infinity would have been awesome but Xbone isn't disrespectful it's just the console mashed up..

Aggie Am I the only one who has not heard of this nickname before?
Same but if their is going to be the nickname it should be X1 or XB1

But people obviously like the product enough to give it a nickname, that's what people will know and remember the Xbox One by.

EPADuhTigersBloodBrandownage27TheDivision I personally think the nickname is retarded and should go away.
In that case... the console should go away too because that's just as retarded if not more.
Great, another sony fanboy on an xbox post? that's cute
Great, another xbox fanboy crying. that's sad
What's sad is you trying to have a go at people over a console (Y)
