From the 15th until the 21th you get a free game (max value of $59.99) with the purchase of any XB1 bundle.


Gotta love how the 2 games in front are the games Sony has a marketing deal with. Guess they really don't want Sony to capitalize off of those games lol. 


They must be pissed sony gets all the third party deals.

Oh wow, I was sure I had already said that I'd updated OP #2. I must've imagined it @_@ xD

 

Thanks for notifying people for me though

Good to see I'm not the only one going senile.

Come back here, so we can get to watching our shows!

There's actually a lot of Nintendo activity in the top 100. And ps4 is beasting. Right now the battlefront bundles are in control and I'd imagine they'll tighten their grip with the game releasing. Sony must be praying it'll be critically acclaimed.

I think the risk of low scoring is somewhat lower with multiplatform games, as there's a decidely lower chance of fanboys creating accounts just to slam a competitor's game.

Well, Sony has been giving away FO4 with the NDC bundle, so there's a bit of tit for tat going on with games for which the opposition has marketing rights.

And don't forget preorders.

October was barely a win for the Xone with halo, they have nearly nothing for november and december.

My only concern after October is the possibility that all consoles are selling low amounts, thus the current "PS4 domination" not amounting to much. I want to see where the SW bundles go up to at release day and after the wild items that showed up recently disappear from the top 20. Cause we're really only seeing the ratio, nothing about amounts...
