Subject: Why is it called the Xbox 360?

Seriously? Was Microsoft's development team high on bath salts when they had their board meeting for the next-gen console back in 04-05? It was probably Johny, a former owner of a 4x4 pick-up truck, country d-bag in his late 40's who thought it was funny to play a prank on Sum Ting Wong at the board meeting by loosening the bearings in his chair, causing him to spin out and fall down. Hence the name Xbox 360.

360 degrees is a full circle. The Xbox does 'everything.' Or something like that.

Disregard Females, acquire currency.

It's called the Xbox 360 because you look at it, turn 360 degrees, and walk the other way. HUR HUR HUR HUR.

Da Husk.

Because 360 pixels per inch or something...

I'm afraid of what he'll think when hears that the new Xbox will be the "Xbox 720".

I always hated that joke, kids don't know their math or how degrees work...mumblegrumble

Two makes there more than speakers.

Because you're going through a constant cycle of having to buy a new Xbox every year or so.

Hey, uh, if you like vs threads, then check out this little group right here, if you have the time. It's pretty fun, just hop right in.

Because a full 360 is a revolution. Therefore, the X-Box 360 'revolutionizes' video games.











Also I just pulled every word of those two sentences out of my ass as I was writing them.

Originally it was a joke that someone clearly didn't think through, now it's just a meme.

Butt ugly ape” remarked Sergeant Johnson always making fun out of the situation even though he had been hit by a spiker round in the arm. He mustered up the strength to continue and the team moved on. The Arbiter informed him that the next room held The Prophet of Truth and this was the final room before extraction. Jun proposed that he takes a shot from a distance the prophet and they all head back to the ship bay for extraction. The team agreed on this and breached the last door…

Actually, I bet it was probably this.

Xbox 720, does everything twice as good? Does everything twice?

Life is a journey, if you spend all of it with your nose in your map, you may miss some of the best parts.

I came into this thread to post an old joke, but you already did it. Anyways, the joke goes a bit differently.

It's called the Xbox 360 because you look at it, turn around 360 degrees and walk straight over it.
