Well, that happened.
PS4 is also doing so well because of the wrongs Microsoft made this year. Remember E3?
Microsoft completely thought we wanted what they were offering. We simply wanted a sufficient game console that could replace the aging 7/8 year old ones we had.

... Does ANYONE even call it "The One" but him? That seems pretty much only the domain of overzealous fans, the kind that actually took the 4chan post as gospel (or at least liked the idea of it enough.)
He's even capitalizing The, how does that not scream pretentious?
The best name change was the guy complaining about the community forum changed into "Community Forum"

so that's why that dude has that name, lmao. The avatar just completes it.
The One and Done;94702366 said:No need for name calling buddy. Everyone gets to use their preferred nickname for consoles. And I think my predictions are close to what will likely happen. But we shall see right?
Hahaha what was his name before? Ah I guess it doesn't matter. Wouldn't be as good as the one he has now
I think the Xbox One most used nicknames will be:
1. Xbone
2. XBO
(..)
64699733124. The One
I can't see "The One" being the nick people use to refer to the Xbone, except for a few hardcore fanboys. I'm sorry, but i don't see it happening. Xbone already has a lot of traction as a nickname on the internet; and in real life, most people wil called simple the Xbox One.
I see what you did there
The One and Done;94692292 said:Well let us wager then; if the PS4 "demolishes" The One in December NPD I wont post for a week. Hell, a mod can ban me for a week. (Demolish meaning outsell by 80 to 100k). Now if The One is ahead of the PS4 then you'll have to post the following: "I was wrong about NPD, The One is outselling the PS4".
Deal?
If you called the Xbox 360, "The 360", then "The One" might seem appropriate.

MS focusing on the US may be a safe bet once everything evens out.
Kind of like the Mustang. Pretty popular US car that no one else really gives a shit about outside of America since it is under-teched and overpriced compared to Euro/Asian competitors.

Well, it wasn't DIRECT name calling...The One and Done™;94702366 said:No need for name calling buddy. Everyone gets to use their preferred nickname for consoles. And I think my predictions are close to what will likely happen. But we shall see right?
Admittedly it does seem wholly possible for marketing to see this and try to capitalize on it as the claimed developer on 4chan said, but like I was saying it just comes off as too pretentious, too loaded and heavy of a name, especially one that'll be obsolete within a decade and isn't even the first of a new product line. So I think only the really big fans (zealous or not) using "The One" and everyone else using either more neutral or derogatory names.If you called the Xbox 360, "The 360", then "The One" might seem appropriate.
I wanna see the thread that resulted in this
Original name was "SHOTEH FOCK OP"
I'm sure some googling would find it.
PlayStation
PlayStation 2
PlayStation the Third
PlayStation Goes Forth

I don't think that is it at all.
It's the price. #1. Then it might be the power discrepancy that is permeating
Also lol at the username change
The One and Done™;94705498 said:Alright that one got me lol.
But let me get one thing straight since I seem to be misunderstood here, I own The One but I've also ordered a PS4 recently on amazon. I wanted a PS4 more than The One but obviously none were available at or after launch and I don't believe in preordering things. Anyways, I wanted both consoles. Yes I know my opinion on DRM isn't popular with most GAFers but I honestly believe The One would have been better with it and it would have truly differentiated the consoles. As I see it now, the differences are negligible, which is unfortunate. I do hope it comes back though.

Lol are fanboys really getting upset over what their rival console is being called?

The One and Done;94100164 said:Awesome! You should definitely pick up a The One if you haven't already. A great next gen experience with great games.

No one call the 360, The 360.
