    Remember back when everything was Extreme? Now it seems that everything is 360°, Xbox started a a fad for the use of 360°. A good way to catch peoples attention with the Xbox craze and everything but how fa will they go? Already there is,

    Anderson Cooper 360° on CNN

    Yahoo! 360°

    I've noticed new photoshoping and editing software has 360° in the title.

    What's to be next,

    Martha Stewart 360°?

      I'm pretty sure Anderson Cooper's show was onCNN before the X-box came out. :)

        I don't understand why 360° is used. To me, it doesn't make any sense. I know this seems weird but think about it. You start somewhere, go around and come back to where you started from.

        The Xbox 360° is a new system but its not back to where it started, its the complete opposite. Why not call it the Xbox 180°? At least then, you started somewhere and are headed in a new direction.

        And scene...

            Probably because if you do a "360" you are making a complete "revolution", and the XBOX 360 is supposed to be a 'revolution' in gaming.

              Simple, 360 to playstation 3. If it was X-box 2, it would sound like it was behind.
              THough this is my opinion, I see no diffrence from this system from the previous, so I feel no obligation buying it.

                If it were the Xbox 180, then Microsoft would absolutely have to give in and allow backwards compatibility without any extra hardware.

                Get it? Backwards? 180?

                Meh.

                I'm saving up for a Leapster LeapFrog 360.
