This is going to be interesting to see the spike x1 gets

Where do you expect that spike to come from?

There won't be another Halo 5 LE spike because effective launch day for Amazon was 2 days ago which was the last day for guaranteed deliver by 27 Oct. In normal retail stores there will be huge numbers of people lining up to collect pre-orders and buy on the day. But for Amazon it should be just another day.

PS4 - 6 bundles, 5 in the top 100
XB1 - 14 bundles, 4 in the top 100

I can't see the XB1 bundle standing a chance against the PS4 Star Wars and Black Ops Bundles next month. Black Friday might make a difference IF you assume Sony won't have some great deals too.

Having 14 bundles blows my mind, even 6 different bundles is crazy. I can't ever recall seeing something like this last gen

You are not paying atention to the whole scenario.

Retailers will do deals on their own, but if MS cuts the price, those deals would still happen and the XBO would be cheaper than the PS4, both official and during BF when both wil get deals.

If that happens, BF crazyness might be able to change this scenario where right now, will be a big PS4 domination.

The Xbox One needs to be 250 on Black Friday to make a difference.   The reason for this is that there is nothing from Sony lowering the regular Star Wars bundle to $299 on BF.  Absolutely nothing.  A $299 Star Wars bundle wins period.  There really is no way to stop the inevitable.  BTW, does anyone notice that the COD bundle is still abnormally high considering the price.  I predict that COD bundle will look like Halo bundle next week.

There was already a $299 BF PS4 bundle leak that was taken down  by request on Bfads.net.

It's down now. These deals get removed so quickly, all I have is my personal email of it. So consider it just a rumour for now. It is over a month before Black Friday, so the leak might have placeholder info. Xbox One was the same price as well. If you are really interested in seeing these deals for yourself before they are removed, join their mailing lists.

There is a reason I didn't post it. It's way to early to assume anything is official regarding Black Friday prices.

Ah! I thought there would be some sort of article on it. I like seeing this sort of stuff.
