Speaking at Build 2016, Xbox head Phil Spencer said he’s not crazy about the idea of the Xbox One.Five. Or is that One.5? You know what we mean.

“I’m not a big fan of Xbox One and a half,” Spencer said.

“If we’re going to move forward, I want to move forward in big numbers. For us, our box is doing well. It performs, it’s reliable, the servers are doing well. If we’re going to go forward with anything, I want it to be a really substantial change for people–an upgrade.”

Industry analysts say that Sony will soon announce the PS4.5, an upgraded version of the PS4 that will better support 4K and 3D gaming.
