That's all? Figured there'd be another game, FO3 doesn't really count since everyone was getting it anyways lol

RIP Tomb Raider

After all this. I think they really only needed 2 , maybe 3 bundles.

Tomb raider bundle
Fall out bundle
Lego bundle (for families)

The rest are pointless.

GOOOOOD! I was worried this wouldnt be announced at all. But since I'm gunning for a PS4, now that this is a possibility for bundles, PS4 just needs to follow suit and I'm set this xmas.

Looks like MS didn't learn their lesson at the $400 price point. Holidays people are gonna be looking at price not storage.

I didn't think that Bethesda was going to go for that, but obviously I was wrong.

Still don't see the interest for them #shrug

Imo, at $399 ($349 after the likely price cut), it won't be as big of an attractor on a non exclusive third party as ACU was, specifically if Sony does their own (expected) price cut.

Also, can't believe they screwed Square that bad (it lauches on the same day as TR2, which has no wide appeal bundle at $399 as well, but on top is limited to MS stores and BB).

The fallout series is widely known.. I'm sure it wont have any problem selling boat loads....maybe the console bundle will do well in Europe?

I mean there gameplay mechanics, combat and dialogue have been spot on since Fallout 3 and new vegas. Not to mention good old radio/music throughout the wasteland has been stellar as well.

Fallout 4 reviews apparently are already out, quick, someone make a thread !




There will be no bundle from Sony, but retailers might do one.

What makes you say no bundles for PS4? Wasn't there just a Destiny one up on Amazon?

Oh, I see your point. Still, really?

When Sony does a 3rd party bundle they make a custom skinned console with a custom controller.

When Xbox does a 3rd party bundle...

Play PC mods first on Xbox One? That would make them Xbox one mods. I understand what you meant OP, just being a shit. On another note this is a great deal, and it almost makes me regret going for the special edition of Fallout 4......but I needed that Pip Boy man.
