Should have swapped Gears for Lego in these bundles.

Lego appeals to a different market and has a different age rating, they are trying to appeal to a difference audience, I think Gears fits well with Ori and Rare Replay (the latter being M rated).

This bundle has its place although they could have chosen a more recent game I guess

Shit! Rare Replay is rated M? The things you learn :)

@Bsigg12

Sorry dude, scratch my last comment - I was thinking Gears stood out for being an adult title compared to Ori and RR. An M game is an M game no matter if its chainsaw's or squirrels :)

Xbox One Special Edition Gears of War Bundle

CQO9s4aWIAA6fQ7.png

You might recall that in July, we introduced the Xbox One Gears of War: Ultimate Edition Bundle, which is available now. Today we’ve got something special in store for Gears fans: the Xbox One Special Edition Gears of War Bundle, featuring a 500GB Cirrus White console and controller, a full-game download of Gears of War: Ultimate Edition, the Superstar Cole multiplayer skin and early access to the Gears of War 4 Beta.

Experience the original Gears of War rebuilt from the ground up in 1080p, including 60FPS competitive multiplayer with 19 maps and six game modes, and five campaign chapters never released on console. And for a limited time, when you play Gears of War: Ultimate Edition on Xbox Live, you’ll get the entire Xbox 360 Gears of War collection to play on Xbox One at no additional cost (more details here). Gears of War: Ultimate Edition is also your ticket to early access of the Gears of War 4 Beta in Spring 2016. This is the first Gears at its best – a bundle for veterans of the series and newcomers alike, who want to experience some of the best that Xbox has to offer.

The Xbox One Special Edition Gears of War Bundle will be available exclusively at Walmart in the U.S. starting in November for $349 USD.

Eh limited editions aren't really good. For stuff like tomb raider and fallout You want a lot of them in stores and I doubt they'd make a million limited edition consoles
Click to expand...
Eh I just want to see what they could come up with, since Halo LE was surprisingly good looking. It's true it won't sell as well as normal.

That white looks damn good. I'd like to have Xbone and PS4 both white.

the Halo 5 Limited Edition Console is the one that interests me most but $500 is really hard to justify on it

might get the White Gears Xbox One bundle if Wal-Mart drops it's price on Black Friday

Why make a second Gears bundle when they still have Rainbow 6, Just Cause 3, and Fallout 4 for marketing rights? With only one bundle to go.

I think Gears has more marketing pull than just cause and rainbow six( I'm assuming a fallout bundle is coming tomorrow)

Also it's probably cheaper to pack in a first party game and you keep the playerbase high

Does Gears bundle count? I mean the rest of the bundles that Microsoft announced will be sold on the MS store while this on won't? Also image in an above post looks like there are two more bundles?

Some good bundles especially the Tomb Raider one but in my opinion I don't think Sony will be concerned, with regards to bundles they have it down in terms of mass market appeal this Xmas with Star Wars Darth Vader console with Battlefront and Call of Duty.

Microsoft missed out there, especially with Battlefront, with the hype of the game and of course the film.

that's why they really need a themed custom Fallout 4 console

Jesus, there are still TWO MORE bundles? This is getting silly.

Sticking by my initial prediction of Fallout & Minecraft bundles, both of which would be big enough deals to end the week on.

I'm just trying to think of the logistics behind this. Are all of these bundles going to be available in stores? I just see in my mind a giant wall of these bundles at Best Buy, each one with a different game & value proposition, and one hopelessly confused parent who just wants the box for little Timmy to play Star Wars on.

Actually I was thinking the same. Specially all the 500GB models.

Fallout 4 bundle tomorrow Microsoft.

Seriously wtf is going on. last gen 360 did many custom bundles of big third party AAA games. This gen, that's is what Sony is doing.

In an hour or so, the last XBO bundle(s) will be revealed. What are your predictions guys?

I'm going with TR2+FO4 500gb bundle, $399. Physical disks with WW release at Nov 10th (mainly because I think MS will want to sell this at Gamestop)

That's because unlike last gen, sony is getting all the major third parties.its not worth doing it for smaller games like recon, and just cause.

Seems obvious that the strategy will be to 'unofficially' reduce these by $50 and/or include an extra pack in game. Namely the likes of Black Ops and Battlefront to counter Sony's official marketing deals and bundles.

I'm thinking Fallout+another game (not TR) for $399. Fallout being the main pack-in game will do more the Xbox One than if it were Tomb Raider imo, and there is already a TR bundle.

That's what I think aswell. Once I saw how limited Mondays TR bundle was, I was instantly on board with your guess. When you first brought it up a while ago I didn't think they'd do it since two brand new games seemed out there, but after seeing the other bundles it pretty much has to be that.

If not FO4 then another game bundled with TR, but FO4 seems like the best option.

They have already said that Fallout 4 on Xbox one get free games of X360 through backwards compatibility so they may market this in that bundle.

i would like to see a tr2 + fo4 bundle, too
but that would make the tr bundle kind of useless and less appealing


it will be fallout 4
not sure if a normal bundle, or limited edition
i lean towards le


custom console, fallout 4 delux edtion 1tb $449
