does anybody remember how much the XB1 CoD bundle was priced at last year? apparently it sold 200k last November. maybe we will see similar numbers for the PS4 CoD bundle?


$499 before the price cut then $449. I think the price drop happened before they started selling it though.


so it was a full 100$ dollars more than the base XB1 with the two AC games. this is 80$ more than the base PS4 with the NDC or with Starwars (when it releases). we should expect similar results. around 200k maybe. im guessing maybe 150k. due to the starwars LE bundle taking away sales from it.

Maybe, but there's already rumours or them dropping their new 3rd party bundles to $300. They will lose more money on a $300 3rd party bundle than dropping $50 on a first party bundle and throwing in NDC.

Have you got a link to those rumours?

I still think the PS4 has had a $100 price drop but Sony are hiding behind these bundles.

Protendo recieved the info through being on a mailing list.

What do you mean hiding the $100 price behind the bundles?

I've been saying it for a while now. Every single PS4 that's $350 has a game with it and Sony have not specifically stated '$50 price drop'. Remove the game and you have a $300 console.

The Black Friday ads should start leaking soon hopefully. PS4 sold just under 900k last BF if I remember correctly, so with the price cut and cod/SW bundles this year, it should easily do over a million.


PS4 sold 840k for the entire month last Nov.

It sold 220k and the official price was 450$ but i think peopel could pick it up for 400$

Seems pointless spending all that money on 3rd party bundles if they are going to push a $300 console on its own.

The cut happened before the release of AW. So it was never sold at 499

Not to mention they announced the price cut on the us blog a few weeks ago. And the fact they've been bundling the last of us for nearly a year or more already.

I'm still backing Halo to give Xb one the win for October. There are 4 Xb one bundles in the top 100 and only one PS4 bundle that counts towards October.
