Remember when people thought the Xbox One was called the Xbox Infinity? Turns out that actually was one of the names âin the runningâ at Microsoft for the consoleâs final branding.

In an interview with Forbes, Albert Penello, Senior Director of Marketing and Planning for Xbox, said âThe name Xbox Infinity was in the running, I can say that. [The brand guys are] crafty. Whoâs to say that they didnât leak that name out in the weeks ahead of the launch? They are very crafty.â
Iâm not the one to say. I have no idea. Why would they leak just one name, as a form of focus testing? Seems more likely itâd be a fake-out, using a discarded name to throw people off the scent.
