    I guess, since you posted it, they will change the name of the next xbox. So that it would be more surprising.

    Are copyrighted names within domains accepted practice?
    If you were to get big, and started advertising legitimately, surely someone from corporate would be sending a nice note your way.
    Am I off base on this assumption?

    well, keep them for now, 4 domains wont cost u much annually.. if the niche wont prove to be profitable, u can sell them in the future when 720 will be more popular. anyway, good luck :)

    I contacted Sony couple of years ago about my domains, SonyConsole.com and SonyConsoles.com and they told me that as long as i advertise only Sony products it's OK to keep the domains.

    Thanks, yeah there is a buzz about xbox 720. But I also read that xbox 720 is just a pet name given by Microsoft to the next version of xbox. It will surely not be called xbox 720

    You should develop the domain and sell it for high price

    ^That is a big lie, you know damn well there will be another version of the gaming systems. They are not losing money in this business, the gaming industry is growing, from what I know it is out growing the movie industry. That PC Gamer magazine was wrong.

    Chances are those are NOT the names of the next Gen XBOX Console but...you never know it's 50-50, it's either the name or it's not. You made a smart gamble, it's not like your losing thousands of dollars, a mere $40/year for possibility of thousands gained instantly if you chose right.

    Stick to it my man, lets see if you win...or lose. :)
