Xbox 720 Logo Spotted In Real Steel Trailer!

Hugh Jackman's new robot fighting movie Real Steel looks incredibly stupid. However, it might have provided us with one of the biggest video-game scoops of the year. In a new trailer for the game, an observant gamer spotted an Xbox 720 logo in a shot of in-arena advertising in the trailer.

Does this mean that next Microsoft console is indeed called the Xbox 720? Considering the film takes place in 2020, it's most definitely a gag. You almost caught us, though.

Nonetheless, I've blown up a still from the trailer so you can see it a big larger. You can also watch the trailer for yourself below. The logo is at the 0:46 mark.

  • WTF!? I seriously would be fine with a 360 for the next 20 years, it's graphics and power are good enough as is
  • HOLY 720 HUGH JACKMAN !!!! the biggest scoop of the year!!! better then yesterdays iphone 4s presentation. that was a big dissapointment
  • I would assume that a new x-box would be out by then....whether or not it's going to be called the 720, dunno, but I doubt it.

  • I'm sorry, isn't this a fictional movie set in the future? This is like saying they're coming out with a special 'Revenge of the Jedi' movie because there was a glimpse of it in a Bioshock Infinite trailer.
  • i'm glad i live off of netflix and downloads so i don't have to see ads for all the bad movies that come out in this day and age.
  • And this is big news? I litterally cannot think of anything that sounds cool for the new xbox name, 720 just sounds stupid.
  • Yeah I'm not sure how important this is- it's like "Nuka-Cola." Just a silly thing. Like the Batman and Superman movie logo was seen in I Am Legend. Don't think too much on this.
  • Why do they call it an Xbox 720? Because when you see it, you turn 720 degrees and you walk away. ...Nope, still doesn't work.
  • This means nothing, you would think they would at least come up with a new brand for it. They are making a play on their current brand which people still recognize as an XBOX360,a product currently still on high demand in the marketplace.

  • I have never seen a boxer, let alone a 4 ton robot boxer, jump to deliver a hook to an opponent. Why would a trained athlete, who's not in MMA, Muay Thai, Kickboxing, Capoeria, or any other sport that would use such a move try that? It looks like he's trying to do a fade away, which would be for basketball, which is also not a combat sport...Unless you're Kobe Bryant.

  • why are you guys hatin on the movie when you havent even seen it. i think it looks rather interesting and im gonna see it to tell all ya haters how it is
  • I wonder if, in the movie, the Robot's eyes go red in the middle of the fight and he stops working? Something to think about.
  • Or it means nothing at all. Just a writing tool that links the viewer to the futuristic setting of Real Steel.

  • Let's hope we get new systems long before then. That's just too long.
  • intresting while possibly/ probly not the real name you know considering the rumor/leaks last couple days that its not that far off its probly accualy real and called that as a codename :/

  • So I've been wondering about this movie... I know Hollywood is fixated on remakes, reboots and works inspired by stuff from decades past... is this like, the modern adaptation of Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots?
  • Rockem Sockem Robots, The Movie?? Really? No, No, Really?
  • Oh, come on! That would be like watching Back to the Future 2 and thinking the next Jaws movie is going to be Jaws 19: "This time its REALLY REALLY Personal". Real Steel is a movie set to take place in a made-up near future, thus some made-up advertisements. In the words of Comic Book Guy "Worst...scoop...ever."

  • How cheesy! Poor Huge Jackman! If he's not playing Wolverine he has to do crap films like this. *sigh*
  • Mod
    It doesn't mean anything. It's like the Nike's in Back to the Future 2.
