The kids may know and understand this, but parents may not. If you go to a store today, you will only find the latter two, and you won’t have an issue picking the one your kid asked for (i.e. the X). But when both generations were on sale, the parent might end up buying "One X" instead of "Series X" because it’s cheaper, or buying "360" instead of "One" because it’s clearly bigger (by 359 no less).
- hombre_fatal 3y ago15+ years ago when I worked at Target's electronic dept over the summer, it was hard enough for parents to track whether the PS2 or PS3 was the latest one much less where a "Wii" or "360" fit into that. The Xbox line-up is just comical. I walk through any gaming department and see an "S", "X", or sometimes even both "S" and "X" on Xbox games. If it was just "Xbox 7" and "Xbox 8", you'd at least have some idea of what's going on. It's like someone who knows nothing about cars trying to figure out SE vs LE vs CE vs XLE trimmings when looking at accessories.
- YurgenJurgensen 3y agoThis is coming from the company that in an attempt to count to 10 (and only ten) went "1, 2, 3.1, 95, 98, 2000, XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10, 11".

- mcpackieh 3y ago> Xbox One S, Xbox One X, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X. Wtf, there are two different S's and two different X's? I thought 'Xbox One _' and 'Xbox Series _' referred to the same products.
- Arrath 3y agoIn fact the One and the Series are the different generations. Xbox One _ :: PS4. Xbox Series _ :: PS5.
