1. The 1TB bundle is $300-350 at every retailer I have seen, that's the typical price range it has varied between. Never once saw it on sale for $250. You might be mistaking it for the blue Gears 500GB bundle, which is $250, but I've only ever seen that offered at the Microsoft store, if they even still offer it, so no, it still wouldn't qualify as "massively bundled". The fact of the matter is the vast majority of Gears bundles are the 1TB and the special collectors edition. More expensive than the more commonly stocked Minecraft and BF1 500GB bundles. And the Minecraft bundle has been out awhile, it didn't "JUST RELEASE". It was just put on sale. No offense, but you don't really seem to know much about this stuff you are throwing out.
2. Siege is an online shooter with a long tradition on consoles. lol @ being niche. It's not ARMA or something. Furthermore yes, it's been getting more and more popular thanks to continued free post launch support and friendly DLC, where as Gears has shitty grindy unlocks and premium cosmetic DLC. I hope Siege continues to rise and Gears continues to fall. But where one shows up on "Xbox charts" is irrelevant. Bottom line is you can buy Rainbow Six for $25 and have been able to for awhile.
By sales data I meant any sort of real data, not popularity charts. And yeah, pretty much every game has been on sale this holiday. Thats why its pointless to criticize a game because it had a sale during the holidays.

Some people really need to do research before saying things they have no idea about lol. The USA charts just came in and it shows that Battlefield 1 very high on the list(higher than Infinite Warfare!) which shows it is the most bundled game in the USA.
I really disagree that Gears 4 needed to fall the Coalition just needs to drastically change the Microtransaction cost or something similar to Halo 5.

Someone needs to learn to read before replying. I never said Gears was the most bundled, realistically Battlefield has become such a huge series there was almost no way that Gears would be more bundled. My point was a bundled xbox exclusive with a history of popularity and doing more than 6 million total sales physically should probably be selling better than most games, not Battlefield in particular. Obviously Battlefield is going to sell better and I wasn't expecting it to do better than Battlefield. But the fact that siege had more players last week than Gears of War 4...even with being on the market much longer. That's kind of sad, I mean honestly Gears 4 should be more popular but it isn't because of huge player drop off.
And yea, there are a lot of problems with the game, Microtransactions are just one of them.
