So, Microsoft has been coming up with some pretty interesting slogans for XBONE lately:

And after being inspired by this quote from Wario:

We should make up Xbox One slogans that Microsoft would probably used that are similar to the latest ones

I thought hey, maybe we can have some fun with this!

So, here are the rules:

1. Make it funny!

2. Cut the smug/snark to a minimum, a little goes a long way

3. Have fun!

 

[Skunkers]

This won't end well.

 

[Prelude.]

Beta tested in the future.

What

 

[Stellactic]

Dizzy yet?

 

[state_vector_collapse]

I need to say this....XBONE doesn't even make sense!

PSOne made sense because it was called the PlayStation One.

The Xbox is called the Xbox, It should be Xone...and I'd pronounce that as Zone....as in xylophone.

 

[brandonh83]

Man I hope that beta test slogan is a shop.

edit: yeah after reading the others, okay, yeah.

 

[Shallwhat]

Can someone clear this up for me.. the name "XBONE".. are you guys pronouncing it X-Bone or XB-1?

 

[JaggedSac]

XBox One, you can keep your pants on.

 

[TheCloser]

What

I'm assuming that they plan on having you beta test it for them when it releases in the near future or at least thats what it implies.

 

[Mugatu]

On the day I was manufactured
The technicians all gathered 'round
And they gazed in wide wonder
At the joy they had found
The head tech spoke up
Said "leave this one alone"
She could tell right away
That I was bad to the Xbone

 

[Ploid 3.0]

What

It's still in alpha, launch is beta. Xbox One will be ready in 2016. Customers buying betas is the new thing. Ask PC Diablo III owners like me, and the console Diablo III owners who are enjoying their full Diablo III experience.

 

[krioto]

Can someone clear this up for me.. the name "XBONE".. are you guys pronouncing it X-Bone or XB-1?

x-bone

 

[hateradio]

Does that mean that beta tests will be taken in the future?

Can someone clear this up for me.. the name "XBONE".. are you guys pronouncing it X-Bone or XB-1?

Ex-bone.

 

[SwiftDeath]

Man I hope that beta test slogan is a shop.

Nope it's real

Saw it in San Francisco first hand

 

[Naminator]

One way to the future.
One cloud to rule them all.

 

[ShipTheCheese]

Xbox One: Fuck you, that's why.

 

[RockTurtle]

Xbone "Ribbed for your pleasure"

no but for serious

Xbone "The Future of Watching"

 

[Shallwhat]

x-bone

thank you!

 

[Massa]

Finally some straight up game related stuff!

 

[vdlow]

Xbox One - More than just a play station.

 

[Hidden One]

Beta tested in the future.

Thats all I got.

 

[Shallwhat]

Not the 360, practically the 180

 

[SwiftDeath]

"Our Engineers assure us One > 4"

Come on MS

Do it

I dare you

 

[Robbler]

Was this one written by this man?

 

[Deleted member 22576]

Idk I could see "LIVE (in orange of course) in the cloud."

 

[Rich!]

XBone: The nickname you'll love to hate.

 

[ncsuDuncan]

One is the boneliest number.

 

[Lijik]

Xbox One - The power of a parallel earth in your living room

 

[Tashi]

Finally some straight up game related stuff!

Wow, next gen Madden looks like ass

 

[Razlo]

Ignoring the fact that Xbone is way funnier, I'll actually seriously address why you're wrong.

Here are some Xbox products:

XBMC: Xbox Media Center
XBConnect: Xbox Connect

So there's a precedent for using the XB by MS themselves in coming up with product names.

XBONE FOREVER!

 

[Kabuki Waq]

Xbox One - More than just a play station.

Ok this one is awesome.

 

[Dysun]

Why Xbox One?

 

[Impeccable]

Wait, "If it were any more real, it would be real."


What in the actual fuck?

 

[Hexa]

Can someone clear this up for me.. the name "XBONE".. are you guys pronouncing it X-Bone or XB-1?

I usually say Xbox One, and don't shorten at all. I think X-Bone though.

 

[NuffDREW4two]

"Anything else you want changed?"

 

[nikos]

This won't end well.

I see what you did there.

 

[IAmRandom31]

" People once said the sky is the limit. Well ... Limit Achieved. Introducing The Cloud. Only on Xbox One "

 

[fluffydelusions]

Give a dog a bone

 

[Ryuuga]

[krioto]

Wait, "If it were any more real, it would be real."


What in the actual fuck?

there's a forza 5 car pic above that is not in the shot (or at least I hope that's what they were referring to)

 

[LastNac]

I miss "No power greater than X."

 

[Mugatu]

Download yourself to the Cloud!

 

[HellsimusPrime]

We aimed for the clouds, 5 billion transistors

 

[Lijik]

Xbox One - With all certianity, it definitely doesn't not exist

 

[RoboPlato]

"Beta tested in the future"

So they're admitting to releasing an unfinished product?

 

[Ryaaan14]

Everything is connected to the Xbone.

 

[Tashi]

Wait, "If it were any more real, it would be real."


What in the actual fuck?

I think that one is talking about Forza. Seems to be taken a little out of context.

 

[Dr. Randy Marsh]

Hey, you. Get on my cloud.

 

[Bog]
