Pretty soon they're just going to start giving the things away for free, to reduce the amount of bundles that are available.

MS are killing themselves with this strategy. People will wait for deals from them constantly now and they've set themselves an even lower benchmark to guarantee sales. Even $350 is now considered expensive for an XB1.

#13 : PS4 Black Ops III bundle - 349$
#39 : XB1 Gears of War: Ultimate Edition Bundle - 299$ (with 30$ gift card?)


This is scary... they are bascally 80$ cheaper than the PS4, and probably being outsold more than 2 to 1.

What does XB1 even do at this point? This year is going to be rough on them competition wise.

Sony have them sell and truly snookered. UC4 moved to April, the month Quantum Break releases, and I still think it was more of a strategic move from Sony rather than a need for extra development time. Then you have RAC and the Street Fighter Bundle, which is clearly there to help spoil the party because Street Fighter releases this month. If PSVR releases late March or late April I'm afraid it's going to get burried under the PS4 games and PS4 exposure in the news. Sony are not playing nicely.

I started thinking that No Mans Sky is going to be bundled with PSVR, which is the cause of no release date details yet. My honest guess is that it will be $350 for headset+rigs+nms vs 450 for the addition of the camera and dildos.

I'd be irate if the base package came with the move as i already have 2 wands, 2 navs an the camera.

I thiink they'll offer the base unit and then have other options for buying the peripherals for it.

Yeah, I think it will sell steadily and pick up in the weeks leading up to the games's launch.

I don't think a standalone X1 can survive. 

Nope, but Sony have got to be careful they don't fall into the same trap.
