Man, I hope these 5 Xb one bundles are actually going to be live rather than pre-orders (at least some of them). Because the Forza 6 bundle is looking very lonely in the top 100 right now and if it's only going to be joined by bundles that are on pre-order it's not going to feel any less alone.

If they're different bundles MS are going to be left with a stack of bundles to get rid of like they did with the original Halo bundle and the Assassin's Creed bundle. Surely these new bundles are going to be existing bundles with added value. If not MS are going to have give the damned things away or risk not refreshing the chain for a couple of months after Christmas. I think it's unlikely we'll get to see shipped numbers for a while after Christmas.

I expect there will only be one bunbdle with a specially designed outer box (Tomb Raider I suspect), the other bundles will just be plain Xbox + game (or two or three). That way they won't have a lot of unsold special stock to carry forward into the new year, as they can simply change what they bundle.
