oh i see some of thsoe bundles are pre orders not sales. 

Yeah, the Star Wars Bundle and the Black Ops Bundle, which of cause augres well for November.

What I believe has happened here is that MS thought they could straddle two months with the Halo Bundle. They thought they could take October late on and take November early on but I think they seriously underestimated the sales of the PS4 before the price drop. Perhaps if they could have somehow persuaded people to wait until the PGW to buy a PS4 then the strategy would have worked ...
