What acronym?
A somewhat significant question for the forum users.
We all need to know the standard acronym for X:Rebirth.
It needs to be short (obviously), not made up of symbols that take too long to press (X¬*R) and can't get someone confused with Reunion at first glance.
I propose either X:R or XRB.
Thoughts?

X:R or X3:R already stands for Reunion...
So far I've always been using XRB because it's not ambiguous.

XBTF = X-Beyond the frontier, XT = X-Tension, X2 = X2: The Threat, X3:R = X3: Reunion, X3:TC = X3: Terran Conflict and XR = X Rebirth.

Despite the first paragraph of the 'Big Picture' sticky, why oh why would it have been so terribly bad to have used X4R? It isn't as if there will ever be another non-Rebirth X4 from Egosoft to confuse it with. If there is ever a sequel to XR then what can we call it that links it to XR - as opposed to it just being another X4 title or even an X5?

@ Legionnaire: Hmmm 'X Rebirth Tension'!
@ UniTrader: I knew what was said and why - I just don't agree that the distinction is all that necessary. Experienced X-gamers know what the X series progression is about and just want an unambiguous naming convention; newcomers couldn't care less what it is called.

I liked XRB, but CBJ says XR so XR it isTerre wrote:I like XRb or XRB, but one thing concerns me, the follow-up - will it be called X:Afterbirth.
I'm happy with it though.
