    • @Fayrayz
      @Fayrayz 3 роки тому +72

      That’s why they called it Xbox One specifically, but did you know the reason they don’t just call the consoles Xbox 1, Xbox 2, Xbox 3 etc. is actually because Xbox came later to the game than PlayStation, and they thought that if people were to choose from Xbox 2 and PS3, they would choose PS3 because the number is bigger. And I don’t blame them for this at all, because it’s actually a quite valid reason, for example, my dumbass little kid self got to choose between Xbox one and Xbox 360 as a present, and I chose 360 BECAUSE the number was bigger. Although, using the same philosophy, naming it Xbox One is a pretty stupid decision, so idk lol.

  • @awesomeness1122
    @awesomeness1122 2 роки тому +5

    Here's a fun Fact the reason why they went with 360 instead of 2 is because they didn't want to seem inferior to the Playstation 3 by being 1 number below them. Yes they have admitted this in interview.

      For the past 6 years, I dreamed about becoming a popular UA-camr. Finally I have a chance to make that dream become a reality. 2 months ago I was able to create my channel, and I already have 231 subscribers and I would love some support as I’m trying to get monetised to prove that I can make money off UA-cam.
      Thanks a ton for reading this far 😁.
