Or it could be the more simple explanation that the Fallout 4 bundle is the only one the mainstream core give two craps about :P .  

It was constantly getting outsold by the Gears Bundle until recently and now the Gears Bundle is falling and the Fallout 4 Bundle is rising. Yes, you could put that down to the release of the game, but then you'd have to aknowledge a sudden late rush, which lends itself to the notion something very recent help push it harder.

Well, the review embargo lifted on the 9th, that could be part of it.  A bundle purchase is a larger financial obligation, added security of good reviews would help push that.  The performance could influence it, maybe, but I just don't see it doing much.  The core of the core are the ones following news close enough to get sucked into such a brief flurry news.  And Fallout 4 has appeal well outside that relatively narrow group.  And the people following news that much are also going to have the sense to wait and get confirmation.  Of course, maybe I'm just putting too much faith in humanity there :P
