Considering they are marketing this and the LE as a way to play the game one week early I expected a greater bump.

These market tactics don't sit well with me as they are anti-consumer, and kind of enforce the previous notion that the Microsoft is taking an anti-consumer approach with the Xbox One. I could only hope that these practices backfire, and aren't the trend going forward.

You don't get to play the game 1 week earlier. It's only to give them time to pre-download, since the bundle comes with a digital copy. That way they get to play the game at 00:00:00 on launch day.
