Is there anyone selling the Xbox one at a much cheaper price or offering a great bundle price ?

I suspect not , but worth asking the question if it can save me some £££ as I need to buy 2 x consoles / packages for Xmas presents

thanks

    I thought this was a good priced bundle from Game:

    Xbox One, Halo: Master Chief Collection, COD Advanced Warfare, Forza 5 & a Halo Skin for £349.99

    That's a great price. If I didn't have an Xbox One I would buy it myself.

    I'm looking at it myself, though I would probably trade in COD (I mean I would have 4 FPS games with Halo alone), and get Sunset Overdrive.

    Alternatively I might chance my look a little and see what bundles might come out with GTA V or Far Cry 4...probably the best month for games since the release of the console, then see if you can get any bargain pre-owned games.

    The Xbox at the moment is doing everything right in terms of games, might be another year before I contemplate a PS4 and that will only really be for Uncharted, by then the Xbox will also have had Quantum Break, Crackdown & Halo 5.

    I imagine those are all digital copies?

    Keep an eye on hotukdeals.com - there is an X1 bundle appearing on there almost every day.

    That's an amazing deal, shame it comes out on Tuesday by the time it gets to Christmas it'll be sold out and now I won't be willing to pay more than £350 or more for an X1 without 3 games

    Not sure, it only really seems to indicate that Forza 5 is the only digital copy.

    Seems pretty vague to what actually is a digital copy and what is a disc.

    Pretty sure COD and Halo are hard copies, where as Forza is digital (it doesn't specify for COD and Halo, but it specifically states that Forza is digital).

    The cheapest bundles will also not have the Kinect. You may not be bothered about that but personally I want the Kinect when I pick up my Xbox One.

    I've admittedly done no research so could be wrong but it might be cheaper to get a second hand Kinect on ebay, the amount of people who bought when it was forced but didn't want one there should be plenty

    Looked in Game today, and Forza is the only one which is a digital download.

    Sorry but £320 for a second hand X1 with no Kinect does not sound like very good value when you can get a new console with download codes for Forza 5 and Sunset Overdrive for £330.

    They are now going this bundle (possibly without the Halo Skin) with a 4th game to choose from, any of the following

    Transformers Rise of the Dark Spark
    Lego Marvel Superheroes
    Titanfall
    The Amazing Spiderman 2

    all for £359.99, I'll be getting an X1 for Christmas if I can find a bundle that good closer to the date and I'll trade in COD which I have on PS4 and maybe get Sunset Overdrive or a few games that I'm missed since launch

    I looked at that bundle as well, but thought having Xbox live for an extra £20 worked out better value.

    Also if you join EA Access for £20 a year you can get an additional 5/6 games.

    Also worth thinking if you know anyone that works for a company/store selling bundles as they may get a discount.
