I remember in Paper Mario: TTYD one of the late game tattle entries on a X-naut enemy clarifies that its pronounced “cross”-nauts. This game had me mispronouncing the villain team’s name the entire time until the end.

Did you pronounce it X-fire or Crossfire?
I think I remember an official statement saying “X-Fire” was correct, and “crossfire” was wrong.
Do you call the button on a controller X or cross?
I could be wrong but I call it the D pad
I mean this button.
X fire, but in my defense I was eleven

X usually stands for cross. Some road sign will say train xing or deer xing
More recently X also represents a heap of shit.
Sometimes X is also used to abbreviate Crossmas.
Christfire would’ve gone hard.
English is my 2nd language, so I always read it as “X” Fire. That;s funny, I never though about it.

Let them know I’m taking that for my new band name.
Hence the cross button on PS controllers.

“Ex-fire”. “Crossfire” was an AMD thing.
I never even considered it might be pronounced crossfire…I am stupid.

I dont even need to watch this video, I can hear the thumbnail. Don’t get caught in the CROSSFIREEEE!
I actually convinced my parents to buy this for me, played it once.
I cannot read the word crossfire without that song latching onto my brain.
The commercial is a masterpiece of 90’s child-centric advertising
