Platform: Xbox 360

The Burger King Xbox trilogy - Sneak King, Big Bumpin', and Pocketbike Racer - has an unusual packaging and disc design, bearing the aesthetic design of the Xbox 360's packaging art, but simply saying "Xbox" due to the game disc containing files for both Xbox and Xbox 360 versions of the game. This is exclusive to the Burger King games, with original Xbox games released after the trilogy still having the original Xbox packaging template from 2001. The concept of a unified "Xbox brand" box design shared between all platforms would eventually see wide use with the release of the Xbox Series X|S, which would clarify which only feature the Xbox brand logo and clarify which platforms the disc is compatible with.

The infamous Red LED lights that surround the 360's power button actually represent different problems depending on how many are alight. One red light meant a hardware failure. Two red lights signify overheating. Three red lights meant a general hardware failure, and four red lights meant and AV cable error. The notorious "Red Ring of Death" is actually, contrary to it's name, a 3-Light problem (General Hardware Failure).

In 2008, an Xbox 360 console featuring Mother of Pearl engravings was given to South Korean president Lee Myung-bak from Bill Gates. The 100 consoles were made with designs hand-crafted by Korean company Gookbo. The designs of the console, entitled "Peace", represent patience and perseverance.

The U.S. Navy uses Kinect sensors for simulators in an effort to help prevent and teach sailors about harassment and sexual assault. The Navy had paid the animation company Organic Motion $83,000 to develop the software for the Kinect.

The Burger King Xbox 360 trilogy are the only Xbox 360 titles which were backwards compatible with the original Xbox; a previous console generation. This decision was made due to the original Xbox having a bigger install base than the Xbox 360 at the time, but Microsoft only wanting to promote the 360 and not original Xbox on TV.

A 26 year old gamer named Josh Moore was suspended from Xbox Live for listing his hometown as "Fort Gay" in his profile. Xbox was unaware that Fort Gay is the name of a real town in West Virginia.

Josh Moore's account wasn't restored until Director of Policy and Enforcement for Xbox Live Stephen Toulouse intervened and revoked the suspension.

The most expensive Xbox 360 Kinect sensor peripheral was inspired by pop singer Kylie Minogue and features over 6000 Swarovski crystals and worth $1,242 USD. Designed by PlayBling, it was given out as a prize as part of a promotion by Microsoft and Dance Central in celebration of Kylie Minogue's upcoming European tour.

During a 2005 interview with J. Allard (then the executive vice president of Microsoft), it was revealed that the Xbox 360 got the "360" part of its name because it reminds people of something positive in their lives. In response to survey responses, Allard said, "But they all connected with a theme -- they were all emotional, personal experiences that evoked joy."
