I almost feel as dumb writing inFAMOUS as I do saying the WWE Universe

Shout out to my favourite example of this, DiRT

i meant what i typed

Agreed. Branding style guidelines are not legally binding documents.

But XBOX is short for XBox One X!

Always wondered if Square Enix realized that it just looks like they’re insanely screaming the names of all their titles

the only wired spelling I will every acknowledge is IRyS for the hololive en talent IRyS cause the lowercase y in the middle of caps looks cool

but jeff... watch underscore dogs?? aidan pierce's icon hat? was it a lie all along?

I understand where you are coming from, but I would question the journalistic integrity of any outlet that doesn't put the $ in Fairgame$.

"man I love WipEout" is not a sentence anyone types

People can do whatever they want as long as they do not write it as XBox or X-Box. Absolute monsters do that.

Devastating blow to SaGa franchise lmao

When I was at Apogee we had MS fail a submission for spelling it Xbox Live vs Xbox LIVE. That was he only reason.

Wasn’t there an Intergrade in there somewhere or am I thinking of the Final Fantasy series?

I only respect an ALL CAPS request if they're wrestlers or rappers.

But somehow it feels wrong to type Playstation.

I’m still calling it NiGHTS

Yeah that one is good actually

I was playing Mario Kart when I noticed GCN tracks use GCN instead of NGC which to me was an odd way to order the abbreviation. I find out it’s to differentiate from Neo Geo Pocket Color as well as Nat. Geo Channel which was a bigger deal when cable TV was a thing.

Technically in Finnish you should write Iphone, yet nobody does it.

It's an idiotic thing to do oh I know i have a great idea let's put Xbox in all caps IM A GENIUS wtaf mediocrity is there game now if that's the best they can come up with i pissed myself laughing when I heard it

It cannot be helped

See. All those losers out there calling members of media games industry shills when it's really the corporate slugs like myself that are the true OG shills and really do have to go with the proper branding.

i really hope that its just a bit for fun anyway i think the all caps lettering is beyond ugly and it bothers me

FANTASY LIFE i: The Girl Who Steals Time

I remember this. Was due to a copyright name thing.

the final documented moment in the historical record where epic cared about unreal tournament

just remember: all caps when you spell the man's name

Also regular DOOM.

MF DOOM earned it though

We don’t even recognize DOOM, though I think iPhone is universally accepted.

You can even refer to "X: The Everything App" as "Twitter" if you want! Freedom of speech bay-bee!

Okay but I'm still calling it "iCarly"

MF DOOM and HEALTH just seems wrong any other way.

I've been chewed out for not typesetting their names properly, but to go BACK and redo it? Ain't nobody got time for dat.

Me, a business reporter on the phone in 1999: “Is it Alltel or AllTel?” Alltel spokesperson: “It’s a big capital A, then the other letters are capitalized but they’re smaller.” Me, already writing “Alltel”: “Thank you”

The X in ‘XBOX’ stands for ‘Xbox’ (but I don't know which one).

Editorial should switch to xboX and call it a day.

Love the "stylized as" caveat on Wikipedia articles.

Counterpoint: I like writing"inFAMOUS". Or even "inFamous". I don't know, man. I just like the style.
