I wonder if it'll do any difference.

That controller is an owed to toastboy.

Already ordered one of the Halo controllers. Gotta get this one too.

Welcome to the future Microsoft!

I've had a 1TB Hybrid in my PS4 since launch, and still spent less than $499. Considering they supposedly dropped price by $50, this deal isn't that good.

500$ ftw ill just get when during black friday for maybe around 300$

Good luck with that. You will not see this bundle for under $450 on Black friday.

It's with that $150 controller, too. Some kind of enthusiast model.

But yeah, it's kinda expensive without a game.

Exactly. The base XB1 is selling for $350 with 1 or even 2 games. The standard 1TB is selling for $399 with 1 or even 2 games. A hybrid drive literally costs maybe $20-30 more retail, and the controller is being upgraded to the more expensive one for maybe $70-90 more. If they had a game bundled in... it would be a good value -- but as is -- its actually less.

Eh :/

Not really a bundle I would like to see but the more bundles to better.
