Won't show up on Amazon? Disappointing. If a few of these bundles are only available at certain stores, Amazon may be far less reliable this holiday. We will have to wait and see.

I think the bundle will do pretty well. They have gone for the Assassin's Creed model that worked so well for them last year, only this time a trade off has been made between price and hard drive size. I think there will be better deals to come this week. Weird how one of the only few countries it is not going to be sold in is the second biggest for the Xbox brand.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. The gap needs to be reasonably big between the PS4 and the XB1 to consider completely believing in Amazon next month.



 

The PS5 Exists. 


Quite a disappointing bundle IMO. Plain console, $400, limited to certain retailers and digital codes, meh. I hope for Microsoft's sake and for the people interested in a XB1 that the next bundles will be better. However you gotta give Microsoft props for shipping bundles which come with digital codes ealier than the games actually releases so you have time to pre-load.

Wow, plain xbox console price at 400$, that's disappointing. I doubt this bundle will do any significant boost on xb1 sales. Microsoft next bundle better be good than this one.

Am I the only one thinking that starting the PR with "New bundles starting at $349 coming" and then "This one is at $399" is kinda silly?



Digital games in a bundle suck. Really.



I think it's a decent bundle, just wish it was not limited to certain retailers. Is there a reason behind it?

Retailers probably don't want to carry a bunch of XB1 bundles.

Ah, I see. So will we probably still see other bundles on Amazon, then, just not all?
