Dude...They were always going to keep the price 349. They raised it back up so people wouldn't say shit like "Oh you lied to us when you said it would end Jan 3"

It technically did end on January 3rd, they just knew damn well that they can't compete with the PS4 at 399. Plus I'm pretty sure Sony announcing that TLOU will be included with every PS4 bundle also had something to do with it.

Yes, we all suspected they would keep the price at $349. It makes sense.

So, was it better not to have consumers say 'you lied to us!' about the length of a promotional deal (seems like a small deal really, that could have been avoided with a press release), then to deal with consumers who bought the console for $50 more in an 8 day period?

I'm just trying to understand the rationale behind the move.

Also,I hadn't heard about TLOU being included in every bundle.

Yes it is and that is precisely what they did (which I called lol). XBone is already plagued by bad PR. They don't want to bring more to it.
