Before someone posts it: Target is advertising a $50 price drop for the PS4, but they are simply giving away $50 gift cards with already released PS4 SKU's: http://www.target.com/sb/playstation-4-consoles-video-games/-/N-55ks1

Already posted a few posts back. But interesting to see the way it's advertised. It's almost like Target have implemented a planned price cut early by doing the gift card thing, and then when the price cut hits the gift card offer will disappear.

It is very soon for those Xb one bundles to come with another game as added incentive. I wonder who dreamt up some of these bundles? MS would have been better off just announcing 3 bundles: RoTR, white Gears+2 games, FO3+4. With white gears being the bundle available now and at $350. There is very little perceived value in the other bundles.

Also has the Forza LE bundle sold out completely? I don;t see it listed among the available Xb one skus.

NBA 2K16 now also comes with the 1TB XB1 FIFA bundle and 500GB Black XB1 GoW bundle:
1TB XB1 FIFA: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0163H1H5A/189-27-20/
500GB Black GoW: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0163HCD0S/81-521-20/

Well, there you have it. Our observations so far are clearly correct and MS are now trying something to alleviate the problem. All Sony have to do is add value of their own and we're back to square one. It's an interesting month indeed.

Check the comment you quoted again, I updated it :). The deal applies to 6 bundles, including 2 unreleased bundles.

'Offer valid until October 10th 11:59PST'

LOL. Trying the whole panic buying situation again but I can't see it having a huge effect.

Xbox One Lego Movie bundle now available with a free copy of NBA2K16 http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0163K38UE/10-5009-20/

Well that didn't take long, I knew they will add something to their bundle to make it more attractive cause as it is their bundles are all kind of meh except for fallout bundle.

Not from Amazon. Just third-party resellers. Probably why it's not listed with the recent bundles anymore.

I wonder if Disgaea can ever reach the 50's

The early reviews are helping, it's ahead of ToZ and DQH (though those 2 will outsell it in the end)

Yeah, I don't see this overcrowding of mostly unremarkable bundles with similar boxart having one extra extra annualized game tossed in crossing a "feeding frenzy."  My money is still on PS4 this year.

The NBA 2K16 deal 100% comes from Microsoft, same deal applies to a lot of bundles at Target: http://www.target.com/c/xbox-one-consoles-video-games/-/N-55kry#?lnk=L1L2_XboxO_082_0_X0Y1_28_7_2015

Even with Halo 5 they are desperate.Pre-orders must not be very high if they have to go to this length.They did not do this with Halo 3 or any other Halo game.This may turn some consumers off like me because it makes the X1 look less valuable instead of the intended effect.
