I dont know..   Arkham Origins sold WAY less in 2013.. then the two previous games did..    Both X360 and PS3 versions of the game did NOT hit 1 million in NA..  prior games sold more then 2 million on both consoles..  in North America.. alone.. 

Yes.. I do think this game seems to have a bigger BUZZ.. But picking a summer release makes me think they don't think its going to be a HUGE seller.. As June/July/August are DEAD times for gaming..  

And the game is available on X1..   Its not an EXCLUSIVE..     so no reason the bundle is really that big of a deal..   It will sell well....  But I feel like a 1TB X1 with NEW controller is a "bigger" sale pusher..   maybe not.. we will see...     

Arkham Origins was a poorly reviewed spinoff handled by an entirely different studio. It's going to be huge, and considering the fact that the Batman bundle keeps selling out I think it's going to move a lot of PS4s. 

Something selling out is NEVER an indication of anything.  They have have only a few hundred Bundles each time.. We don't know..    I am not saying it won't sell well.. But it also does only have 7 days.. instead of two weeks for the X1 1TB bundle..        It could still be close..        I didn't say X1 would win.. I asked if would make a difference..    I am not sure the Batman bundle makes a big difference for the month was my point..
