I was starting to get worried. Microsoft’s latest attempt at branding the new Xbox was almost starting to make sense.

我开始担心了。 微软对新Xbox品牌进行的最新尝试几乎已经开始有意义。

First, a bit of history. Back in 2001, we got the original Xbox.¹ In many ways, it was an anti-Microsoft product. First and foremost because it was a consumer gaming console. But more so because it had clean branding. It wasn’t ‘Xbox for Workgroups 3.11 XP 95 Edition’ or something like you might expect from Microsoft. It was simply ‘Xbox’. It was so simple. And had symmetry. Hell, it sounded like a gaming machine.

首先，有一点历史。 早在2001年，我们就获得了原始的Xbox。¹在许多方面，它是一种反Microsoft产品。 首先，因为它是消费者游戏机。 但更重要的是，因为它拥有清晰的品牌。 它不是“ Xbox for Workgroups 3.11 XP 95 Edition”，也不是Microsoft可能期望的东西。 只是“ Xbox”。 太简单了。 并具有对称性。 地狱，听起来像是一台游戏机。

Then came the second generation of the machine which was naturally called the ‘Xbox 2’.

然后℃ 的我的第二代其自然称为“的Xbox 2”的机器。

Ha! No no no. The second generation of the Xbox was called the ‘Xbox 360’ because it had to compete with the Playstation 3. And 3 is bigger than 2, you see. But you know what is bigger than 3? 360. They went from being behind Sony to beating them by a whole 357 generations. Brilliant.

哈！ 不不不。 第二代Xbox被称为“ Xbox 360”，因为它必须与Playstation 3竞争。而3比2大。 但是你知道大于3的是什么吗？ 360.他们从落后于索尼到打败整个357代。 辉煌。

In all seriousness, it was a sort of clever maneuver to get a ‘3’ in the name. In fact, Apple would use a similar move a few years later when the ‘iPhone 2’ transformed into the ‘iPhone 3G’. Of course, that was more of a functional name — it was the first iPhone with 3G service. Still ‘Xbox 360’ is seamless enough. Then things started to go off the rails.

严肃地说，获得名称“ 3”是一种巧妙的操作。 实际上，几年后，当“ iPhone 2”转变为“ iPhone 3G”时，苹果公司也会采取类似的举措。 当然，这更多是一个功能名称-它是第一款具有3G服务的iPhone。 “ Xbox 360”仍然足够无缝。 然后事情开始脱离轨道。

The successor to the Xbox 360 was not the ‘Xbox 4’ or ‘Xbox 480’ or ‘Xbox 4000’ or any other variation to continue down the line they jumped and to keep pace with the ‘Playstation 4’. Instead, we got the ‘Xbox One’.

Xbox 360的后继产品不是'Xbox 4'或'Xbox 480'或'Xbox 4000'或其他任何可以继续沿其跳跃路线并与'Playstation 4'保持同步的变体。 相反，我们得到了“ Xbox One”。

The Xbox One was not the first Xbox, of course. Again, that was the Xbox. It was the third Xbox. But ‘Xbox Three’ would make no sense after ‘Xbox 360’ and ‘Xbox Four’ seems odd. ‘Xbox IV’ may have been cool. Like ‘Rocky IV’ was cool. Drago! But no. Xbox One. Because reasons.

当然，Xbox One并不是第一个Xbox。 同样，那是Xbox。 这是第三次Xbox。 但是，在“ Xbox 360”和“ Xbox Four”看起来很奇怪之后，“ Xbox Three”毫无意义。 “ Xbox IV”可能很酷。 就像“摇滚四世”很酷。 德拉戈！ 但不是。 Xbox One。 因为原因。

Then things really started to go off the rails. The Xbox One ended up getting a second iteration called the ‘Xbox One S’. Unclear if this was following Apple’s (also odd) iPhone naming schemes at this point (some will recall the ‘iPhone 3GS’ naming debacle complete with capitalization and spacing changes after launch). Was the ‘S’ also for “speed” here? It was the first Xbox to support 4K, so you’d think they could have course corrected with an ‘Xbox 4K’ name — but that may have implied that this was an entirely new console. So what about ‘Xbox One 4K’? Nah. Xbox One S.

然后事情真的开始脱轨了。 Xbox One最终获得了第二次迭代，称为“ Xbox One S”。 目前尚不清楚这是否遵循了苹果公司(也是奇怪的)iPhone的命名方案(有些人会回想起“ iPhone 3GS”的命名崩溃 ，并在发布后更改了大小写和间距)。 这里的“ S”是否也代表“速度”？ 这是第一个支持4K的Xbox，因此您可能会以“ Xbox 4K”这个名称来纠正他们的名字，但这可能意味着这是一个全新的控制台。 那么“ Xbox One 4K”呢？ 没事 Xbox OneS。

This is where I’ll point out that there was apparently an ‘Xbox 360 E’ as well, but no one remembers that. Or at least, I didn’t.

这就是我要指出的地方，当然也有一个“ Xbox 360 E”，但没人记得。 至少，我没有。

Moving on, a year after the Xbox One S, we got the ‘Xbox One X’. Why that name? Again, it’s unclear. It’s more redundant than symmetrical. It did come out just a few days after the ‘iPhone X’, but as everyone still doesn’t fully know, that ‘X’ stood for ‘10’ not the letter ‘X’. And it was because it was the 10th anniversary of the iPhone. (We won’t get into why there was never an ‘iPhone 9’ — the ‘Xbox 2’ of smartphones.) In 2017, when it was released, the Xbox brand was 16 years old, not ten. ‘Xbox One XVI’ doesn’t quite have the same ring… So Xbox One X, it is — with memories of ‘C++ for You++’.

继续前进，在Xbox One S推出一年后，我们得到了“ Xbox One X”。 为什么叫这个名字？ 同样，还不清楚。 比对称更冗余。 它确实在“ iPhone X”发布几天后才出现，但由于每个人仍然不完全知道，“ X”代表“ 10”而不是字母“ X”。 这是因为那是iPhone诞生10周年。 (我们不会解释为什么从来没有“ iPhone 9” —智能手机的“ Xbox 2”。)在2017年发布时，Xbox品牌已经16岁了，而不是10岁。 “ Xbox One XVI”的环并不完全相同……因此，Xbox One X确实具有“ C ++ for You ++”的记忆。

This brings us to present day. We’re on the verge of the launch of the ‘Xbox 5’ or ‘Xbox 6’, depending how much of a jump you considered the Xbox One X to be. The name? Well, now we have two names because we have two machines. The ‘Xbox Series X’ and the ‘Xbox Series S’. Because of course.

这把我们带到了今天。 我们即将推出“ Xbox 5”或“ Xbox 6”，这取决于您认为Xbox One X有多大的跳跃。 名字？ 好吧，现在我们有两个名字，因为我们有两台机器。 “ Xbox Series X”和“ Xbox Series S”。 因为当然。

Honestly, in a vacuum, these aren’t bad names. They’re a bit automotive, and yes, hearkens back to both the Xbox history as well as the iPhone history. Thankfully, all the previous iterations of the Xbox are no longer for sale, otherwise this naming scheme would be a total clusterfuck.

坦白地说，这些并不是坏名字。 它们有点像汽车，是的，它们既可以追溯到Xbox的历史，也可以追溯到iPhone的历史。 值得庆幸的是，Xbox的所有以前的版本都不再出售，否则，这种命名方案将是完全的clusterfuck。

The Xbox Series X is newer than the Xbox One X, which is newer than the Xbox One, which again, isn’t actually the first Xbox, but instead the third Xbox. There was also an Xbox One S, but that’s not the same as the Xbox Series S, which is newer. There’s also the Xbox, which was the first iteration, but is not the same generation as the Xbox Series series. Because ‘Series’ implies newer. Or something. Also the Xbox 360 is still 355 or 354 iterations ahead of all of these in naming sequence, at least. Got it?²

Xbox Series X比Xbox One X更新，后者比Xbox One更新，Xbox One实际上不是第一个Xbox，而是第三个Xbox。 还有一个Xbox One S，但与Xbox Series S不同，后者较新。 还有Xbox，这是第一次迭代，但与Xbox Series系列不是同一代。 因为“系列”意味着较新。 或者其他的东西。 而且，至少在命名顺序上，Xbox 360仍比所有这些版本先进行355或354迭代。 知道了吗？²

Again, at least we don’t have ‘Xbox 3.11 SE 2020 Edition’ — which in a previous Microsoft, we very well could have! Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X seem easy enough to remember.³ The one earlier in the alphabet is worse than the one later.

同样，至少我们没有“ Xbox 3.11 SE 2020 Edition”-在以前的Microsoft中，我们很可能会拥有！ Xbox Series S和Xbox Series X似乎很容易记住。³字母中的前一个比后一个差。

But wait, you’re not getting away that easy. Did I mention that apparently, the Xbox One will run Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X games? Which Xbox One, you ask? Good question. No idea. And also not all the games. But some. Also the Xbox Series S will not run all the same games as Xbox Series X because of “enhancements” the Series X is capable of for older games, apparently. Instead, it will run Xbox One S versions of Xbox One and Xbox 360 games.

但是，等等，您并没有那么轻松。 我是否提到过，Xbox One 显然可以运行Xbox Series S和Xbox Series X游戏？ 您问哪个Xbox One？ 好问题。 不知道。 而且也不是所有的游戏。 但一些。 同样，由于“增强”功能，X系列Series X 不能与Xbox系列X 运行所有相同的游戏，显然，它可以用于较旧的游戏。 相反，它将运行Xbox One和Xbox 360游戏的Xbox One S版本。

So why buy the Xbox Series S instead of an Xbox One X? Because it’s faster. But not as fast as the Xbox Series X. But fast enough that it can play the same games. Sometimes. You could also just play them in ‘xCloud’ — which has a small ‘x’ unlike the Xbox’s large ‘X’. But it’s not a 10, remember. They’re saving that for the 10th iteration of Xbox, which will obviously be called the ‘XboX’.

那么，为什么要购买Xbox Series S而不是Xbox One X？ 因为它更快。 但是速度不如Xbox SeriesX。但是速度足够快，可以玩相同的游戏。 有时。 您也可以只在“ xCloud”中播放它们-与Xbox的大“ X”不同， 它具有一个小的“ x ”。 请记住，它不是10。 他们将其保存为Xbox的第十次迭代，显然将其称为“ XboX”。
