This is the most idiotic rename ever. Are they high in Microslop?
I bet a guy suggested OFFaiCE and they prolly said "that's confusing".
OF-FAECIES
Their most idiotic name ever was whatever the Xbox branding bullshit was. It was so bad, customers didn't know which one to buy.
I thought it was pretty stupid calling the third one "Xbox One" but then going from "Xbox One X/S" to "Xbox Series X/S" was much more idiotic. Nobody would ever think that's a new generation of consoles. It sounds like a rebrand. I genuinely struggle to understand how a decision like this is made.
