Bundling could help, but it did't help Sega back in the day with the Saturn. They insisted on keeping the price point the same and just kept adding more and more games to bundles to try and spur sales. It never worked.

A lot of it has to do with perception. Some people will stick to their guns and say I'm not jumping on the wagon until the price is [whatever they deem it to be]. No matter what content is thrown in, if the price still says 399 on the tag some people just won't jump.

I think Kinectless 399 bundle with Madden is a good deal. I have no interest in grabbing a XBONE right now, but had I not already put all my chips in on the PS4, this would make me consider grabbing one.

I can't imagine using the XBOne without Kinect. The tv functionality is the feature I use the most. I realize that's just my opinion but it has become essential to my home entertainment experience.

Wow. That is a hell of a deal. I paid that much for the launch console w/Kinect...no games included. PK, this is your deal. Pull the trigger.

Smart move. That is a good deal. Does anyone know if the Half Life 2, Episodes, and Portal allowed for co-op campaign play on the 360?

NCAA 14 Download for 360 is only $9.89 if you have gold. The last College football game is definitely worth it if you haven't picked it up yet. Maybe also worth selling a physical disc . . .

Great heads-up! I want it to stay in my collection, but am officially tired of discs.

If anybody has an XBox One but DOESN'T have Forza Motorsport 5, I had to replace my XBox with a new one due to some hardware problems. It was the FM5 bundle and I have a code that I can give to somebody here. Just PM me.
