Do you get a free game when you buy from a third party? I don't think you can. That is why we see a fast decline as soon as it got sold out on Amazon.

Forza Horizon 3 seems to be doing a lot better on Amazon compared to FM6 and FH2. I hope this is true on all retailers.

Also, for a relatively small game, the digital version is charting very high. I think this game well sell a lot better digitally compared to the usually because of the UWP thing.

The free games are currently unavailable, so yeah it looks like the Xbox needs to be sold by Amazon.

So the gear of war4 bundle is more expensiv than the ps4 Pro?... I hope M$ keeps in mind that it is not halo even if it is a L.E. and a 2TB HDD doesn't cost 100+$(since there is already 500GB in standard editions).

October will be interresting

That one game free deal gets less effective every year

And this is one of the games they were giving away with it:

I'd say that's beyond desparate and entering the realms of stupidity. There's going to be a huge crash in XB1s sales come Q1 of next year. This is why the PS4pro is actually one of the smartest moves Sony has made in recent history. While MS are trying to devalue current gen consoles, Sony has infused the market with value and enabled them to keep a decent top line.

People make me laugh when they go on about Sony not having AAA games for Christmas. This year they're relying on hardware and AAA multiplat deals to carry the torch while similtaniously giving them selves a huge arsenal of AAA first party games and console exclusives to kick Q1 off. Couple that with the slowing down of XB1s sales as we get closer to the Scorpios release and we could be looking at one of the biggest slumps we've seen in years. And here's a prediction: Christmas 2017 WILL release a AAA first party exclusive or two, and we'll see a $50 price cut across the board. It could be more but only if Sony decide it's necessary.

I think the only 299 console in stock for the XB1 being the minecraft one is making it hard to gauge. XB1 is currently ahead on the best buy best sellers and got 5 consoles ahead of the nearest ps4 on the gamestop one mainly because of the drop to 229 of the OG console.
