Talk about downplaying like a mofo.Titanfall was given away for free,"FREE"and was the next coming of Christ.Congrats to Destiny.

Basically this. The Kinectless X1 was not out at the time and getting Titanfall for free with an X1 + Kinect was the best deal. Meanwhile, you either had to pay the full $60 for the standalone game or an extra $50 with the PS4 bundle.

MS also cut the price of the Titanfall bundle to $449 a few weeks before launch, so it was effectively much cheaper than the PS4, as you would have to pay ~$520 for PS4+Infamous+PS Camera.  Or if you take out the camera, they were the same price.

Oh damn, how could I forget that? You were literally getting an X1 for virtually $290 if you take into account the price of the game and the price difference between the Kinectless SKU and X1 + Kinect. If you take into the standalone Kinect's price ($150), the theoretical price goes down to $240, which is really low and a fantastic deal. The Titanfall bundle was the best thing MS offered especially after X1 sales fell off the map starting January. Heck, it was still the best deal after the Kinectless SKU came out hence why the X1 could not beat the PS4 in June NPD, in my opinion.
