A competitive multiplayer version of Conway's Game of Life

Microsoft has a history of being laser focused on petty things like number of apps or how naming it the Xbox 2 would make it inferior to the PlayStation 3. If they had instead focused that energy towards quality, who knows what might happen.

As a consumer (SO’s perspective) even as a PS-biased player, she feels as if the Xbox 360’s naming was enough to potentially sway her.

Maybe there’s a reason, even if we’re not fans.

Did she think she missed out on Xboxes 3 through 359, so the 360th one must've been good?

I don’t know if this is true, but the xbox naming definitely never made sense to me.

Nintendo tried that with the wii U and look at how successful it was.

Of course, the Wii U was released well after the Xbox 2 (360) and about a year before the Xbox One.
