One of those bundles have to be a multi-game bundle rather than simply just a regular one we've seen for the past year.
Wouldn't be surprised if they do a full Halo 5 + MCC bundle with ODST and Reach or something included as well.
Or maybe some multiplayer game with a year of Live bundled in maybe.

They really should do Fallout bundle, that could have good sales potential.
For the first time on the Internet, the answer to an "Am I the only one...?" question might be "yes".

I think a Qb bundle is probably a bit early to announce now, I do expect one next year though given its their big early 16 game.
Need that special edition announcement too microsoft/remedy!

I just remembered Minecraft Story Mode is out next month.
Minecraft + MC Story mode bundle maybe?

A Minecraft bundle could actually work.
Make some nice box art and all the kids will want it if they see it in stores.

Why not just do a single SKU with a redeemable code for any bundled game of choice?
Cuz Marketing.

So it seems like there will be not just 4, but 5 bundles being revealed, one for each day between the 28th and October 2nd, according to IGN.
I think it's safe to say that Tomb Raider and Fallout will be bundled, and MS will have a low cost of entry bundle for casual gamers as well. The other bundle I'm feeling is Rainbow 6, but this potential 5th one is kinda hard to guess what it could be. Maybe something with Kinect?

Something family friendly seems necessary. Lego Dimensions, Minecraft, and Rare Replay all seem like good pack-ins.
Hardly. That's a huge loss of money! They lost money with 350$ last holiday.
Both the Madden and the FIFA bundles come with a year of EA Access already.
Good lord
Maybe the 5th is the same TR bundle but 500gb for $299? If it was a big bundle with another game, then they would advertise that. Kinect bundle is another good guess too.

If I get an Xbox it's going to be the Halo 5 guardian one, it looks so amazing
Much much much? It doesn't need much to match the size of the PS4. It's just has to be 2 inches less in width, and 1 inch less in height.
13.1"(W) x 10.8"(D) x 3.1"(H) on X1
vs
10.8"(W) x 12.1"(D) x 2.09"(H) on PS4.
Once I saw the box opened up it's obvious MS made the box large to utilize a lot of open airflow for cooling. As soon as the new chips are done that thing is going to shrink like crazy. Although I am not sure they're going without a disk drive. I think the outcry that they're trying to push the all-digital future would come back to haunt them. (even tho I'm okay with that.)
Minecraft + Minecraft: Story Mode + Xbox One Creeper-themed console/controller would be huge among kids.
A Creeper-themed Vita bundled with Minecraft could have sold quite a lot by Vita standards. I'd have picked one up at least.
I'm pretty sure there were bundles last year for $299 when factoring in gift cards.
I doubt there will be any Madden, Forza, or Fifa bundles left by November. And the halo custom console is limited
So that just leaves the leftover gears bundles and the elite console + these 4-5 new bundles

This actually should have been a permanent choice of bundle since the beginning. There's nothing in video games so universally successful as Minecraft.

Like someone else said, I think they bundle Minecraft with Lego Dimensions as a counter to the PS4 Star Wars/Disney Infinity bundle.

That would actually be pretty rad. They really do need a "family bundle" like they used to do with Lego batman or whatever

I bet the gears/madden/FIFA bundles disappear pretty quickly as the holiday bundles hit
