Why 360?

[azurill]

This random question popped into my head the other day,why did Microsoft choose 360 as a name for the second Xbox?

 

[Maiq]

Because 'XBox 360' sounds better than 'XBox 2' when competing with the Playstation 3.

 

[Xeice]

Better market strategy......Which would you pick?

Xbox 2
or
Xbox 360

I rest my case.....

 

[Swampy]

I always thought the 360 was the number of degrees the system heats up to.......

 

[azurill]

I see,yeah it's true 360 sounds kind of 'cool'

I always thought the 360 was the number of degrees the system heats up to.......

It makes no sense, really. 360 makes no sense, because 360 degrees gets you back to where you started, meaning that you wasted your time.
