Exactly. I could also see them throwing in the master chief collection for free as an added incentive and advertise it as, 

(This holiday get the entire halo series on Xbox one with the master chief collection along with halo 5 and a year of xbl for $329) 

 

If Microsoft play their cards right, I could still see them winning the holidays. 

 

(Brings back a 2 litre of Pepsi and pizza) Lol 


Droping the price right nw would be dangerous, even if its  black fridy deal only, its bet as you said t just add value to existing bundles, wich is the main issue they have, all of their bundles anounced are very unapealing, exept for one and not by much. So I see them doing what you said but across ll bundles, add the MCC and a year of live gold, that would put them in the same possition as before, but have less backlash after the holidays end and they decide to remove the incentives or change them, but the backlash for another "temporary pricecut" would be much worse thn before. And I mean by that that last year sales plometed on jan and they had to drop the price.

Price cuts ar emost effective when they happen for the first time like last year for the Xbox and they had COD/AC bundles while SOny had nothing after Destiny.Another price cut won't make a big difference for the X1 since the wow factor is gone now and Sony has its first price cut and COD/BF bundles.
