Yea, I really Just want to play K.I, but I am interested in forza and (don't judge me) ryse. I am worried that I wont be able to find one until like February and I want to be practicing K.I.
For the record I will be buying a ps4 as soon as it has a game I care about also.

Honestly it'll probably be way easier in January. Very few people buy big purchases in January (due to all the holiday shopping).
Considering they only launched in 13 countries, I highly doubt that.
You've already waited this long, hold out and see how the sales look. That will determine the deals MS eventually has to cut (or not) to induce sales in Jan/Feb etc. AKA the months in which the Wii U died a fast death.

You guys killed some of that impulse buy urge. Will wait, thanks.

I wonder if you can just buy the bundle and return everything but the console? I really hate this bundle bull that retailers are pulling.

Microsoft is now selling Day One editions on their site.

I actually grabbed this bundle last night. I mostly just wanted the Xbox One for Killer Instinct, but I was also interested in Forza and Ryse... yes, Ryse... look, it wouldn't be a console launch without some terrible launch game purchasing decisions. Plus the bundle came with a year of Live Gold and an extended warranty, which considering the 360 probably isn't a bad idea.
Now if I could only find a PS4... anywhere...

So is this basically available in general now?
Yes, you can. I got a Forza 5 Day One bundle from gamestop.com that included an extra controller that I didn't need. Returned to a store the next day with my packing slip and got refunded the $60 + tax.

Same here, still looking for the ps4 here in NYC. Also, I beat Ryse and it was a good experience, playing on hardest right off the bat, I enjoyed it.
Agreed. Definitely recommend playing on the hardest difficulty off the bat, but I found it to be quite enjoyable. Not revolutionary by any means, but still a lot of fun.
Yeah, but this is still Day One edition consoles. Got to get that exclusive achievement!
I love mine. Gamers downplay the voice controls and apps but I'm certain you'll find them valuable.
The launch library is the best I've personally experienced. I feel wholeheartedly entertained by the initial game library.
Negatives... It's $500 and doesn't have a blockbuster. It's also missing some essential features which will require a future patch.

You'd think they'd be sold out. Interesting.

2.1mil shipped and sold in 2 weeks = yield issues?
If wal mart isn't getting a bulk of stock then obviously Sony has their focus on other places. Most likely Gamestop and Amazon.

Do you think there is any chance that Amazon will get day one bundles anymore?

I ordered a Xbone from the Microsoftstore.com page on blackfriday, it finally just came yesterday even though I paid for 2 day shipping.. anyways. I found it kinda strange that it still had a sticker on it saying "don't sell or display until Nov 22nd." I wonder if they had been holding these systems back just for black friday.
Target in 08054 (centerton shopping center), its either Moorestown or Mt Laurel NJ (i should know this as its a store im at too often!) had 5 at 11am this morning and still had them @4pm when I went back for my 3rd round of xmas lights.
They had 5 last sunday also.
PS4s are sporadic (get a few a few times a week) and go immediately according to the guy there, same thing another guy told me last week.

I doubt you'll see a ps4 in the wild in a pack, as they are solo hunters.

I was in the Mt Laurel Target this past Saturday and they had about 5 in the case then too. The Target in Voorhees NJ had a few this afternoon as well.
Buddy's best buy didn't get a shipment of xboxes this week, they instead got 150 ps4s, they expect xboxes within the next week however.
They actually have about 10 in the back for some reason.
Probably waiting for the new shipment so they can put them all out at once with the flyer.
