Ever since I played Halo 4 and noticed that Humans biggest and baddest new flagship was called Infinity and with the already then lingering rumours about it, I felt that it will most probably called Infinity.
nailed it
just some thoughts.. My 21st predictions
recap-Xbox 360 - ring motif, connected, online features and services,
Xbox Infinity - infinite possibilities, connected+, modest specs, PaaS/cloud rendering/computing/AI *enhancements* using Azure infrastructure, (as 2nd gen software features) using display planes and new APIs/ DirectX update, Private cloud streaming functionality of interactive/non interactive content. heavy integration between xbox and windows systems in private and public cloud.
Less of a console launch and more of an ecosystem launch..
We now have 3 values for the xbox numbering over the years:
2001 : 1
2005: 360
2013: infinity
In 2021 it will be called the Xbox NaN, or maybe Xbox -360

the infinity logo that posted on ibtimes/eurogamer is now considered leaked? doesnt the reddit user that upload it already says that it its his fan made logo?
Is that the real logo for the next Xbox?
Nope. It's a Photoshop by a Redditor named C-Ron.
So why do I keep seeing it everywhere?
Because it is an image on the Internet, and images on the Internet never go away. Also, because a lot of people are talking about Xbox Infinity this week.
Where did "Xbox Infinity" come from?
Umm... well, really, the name has been floating around the web for months now, along with Xbox Infinite, and Xbox 8 (trademarked by Microsoft last year), and Xbox Fusion, and Xbox 720, and Xbox [INSERT WHATEVER].
Pi sounds interesting. Aside from that, compared to Xbox 720 or Xbox Fusion, anything else could sound ok to me. Xbox Infinity is still my favourite.Fixed that for you.
The thing is will Durango losing every single DF faceoff have any significant effect? Negative word of mouth on Durango being the weaker console is probably more important than the small visual disparity between games running on both.
And also remember that the PS4 also comes with PS Eye in the box, which is superficially like Kinect and I doubt your average gamer will be able to know the difference in capabilities between the two - especially if there's also some Dance Central type game available for PS4.
The vs of multiplats games was mainly to see how devs made their engine work on different architecture consoles. I do not think anyone cares about slightly blurred textures or 1-2 fps drops or so on. It is quite irrelevant but nevertheless intresting to know which engine works well on the console and utilizes it better. Unless the game is bayonetta or some really bad port that deserves criticism. Because on one should except such shabby work by devs.
I am pretty sure it is will be identifical next-gen and disparity will be minimum.

You do know the PS3 is within a million or two of the sales of 360, right? Possibly even surpassing it now. Despite the launch debacle, costing $100 more for a long time, launching a year later, and losing most digital foundry comparisons. It appears that the average gamer doesn't really care about the relative power after all.
Xbox Infinity has been also spotted on Skype. This, most definitely, confirms the name. --thanks MaxterChief for the info-

Xbox ∞ & Beyond could be the name of the nextxbox in 2021.
