The Xbox One - Part 8

[X Knight]

so how much do you think the Standard X1 controller will go on sale for on BF weekend?

$30 maybe??

 

[Benstamania]

Honestly that's the only real BF (or cyber monday) deal I'd be interested in. I'd love to snag a white one.

 

[Thundercrack85]

Really?

I'd like some games, a tablet, and a laptop.

didn't they say they had no plans to release the white controller separately?

 

[Thundercrack85]

They're not out yet, but I would find that very surprising. They've released controllers for every other bundle, including Titanfall and Call of Duty.

 

[X Knight]

I thought I read some article stating they wouldn't.

but I don't see why they wouldn't release another colored controller.

 

[Thundercrack85]

I would also be surprised if this is the last white Xbox One we see.

 

[X Knight]

yeah. I'm sure there will be others.........

so, Thunder, are you still getting the White bundle?

I've decided to get the CoD bundle. Guess I want that 1TB hdd........lol.

just not sure if I should get it this week, or take my chances and wait closer to BF in case they offer better deals.

 

[Thundercrack85]

Yes, though I am going to wait until the 8th. Fortunately everyone is restocking the bundle, so it's not as rare as I had feared.

I considered the Call of Duty bundle, but I find the price too high. It's a 100 dollars for 500 GB. That's a lot.

hmmmm.....I might wait for the 8th, too, to get that free Live sub.

I'm willing to pay that $100 extra just to get the bigger drive already built in. considering that I'd have to pay around $75 to get a 1TB internal drive to replace my PS4's hdd ( and then replace it myself ), paying $100 more for the CoD bundle doesn't seem that bad.

it would already be built in. won't have to take anything apart. and would be less likely to need an external drive. If I ever do, then that would be further down the line and the prices on externals should be cheaper.

so, really, it's more about the "convenience" factor.

plus, I reason, by getting the model with the bigger drive, when I go to sell/trade it in down the road, it should be worth more than the standard 500GB model. not too mention it's a limited edition console.

so it should be worth somewhat more, right?

 

[Iceman]

I bet the Halo 5 Xbox will be awesome. I might consider trading up.

 

[X Knight]

haha. yeah, I still kind of wish they did a Halo MCC themed 1TB bundle this year instead.

but that AW bundle is what I'm going for.

plus, I just found out at BB, for a limited time, if you trade in your slim PS3, you'll get a min $100 gift card AND a $50 coupon towards an X1.

so, that means the AW bundle would really be $400!!

or, for $450, I can get the AW bundle and get Sunset Overdrive for essentially free ( since I also have that GCU membership discount )!!

I think I'm going to go tonight and trade in my slim PS3 to get that coupon.

wow!! that's a lot of stuff!!

where are you planning on selling your collection? on ebay or craigslist for cash? at a game store for credit?

if you trade in the 360 and 4 controllers at BB, you'll get at least a $50 coupon towards the X1 and $10 per wireless controller. so that's $30 right there.

but really, the whole collection seems worth more than $150. I'd try to get at least $200 for everything or even more.

If you trade in just the console to Microsoft, you get $100 coupon, and the console and a controller or two can sell for $150 easily on craigslist/kijiji.

Then take into account 3 extra controllers and games like Halo 4, AC Black Flag and Rogue and GTA 5, I feel like $300 is a decent deal no?

EDIT: I'll post it for $300 and take the best offer.

$300 would be pretty good. that would cover most of the X1 with the $50 price cut.

Exactly. $50 for an Xbox One would be pretty awesome. I'm getting the Assassin's Creed version and plan on selling the code for Black Flag for like $30. I'll end up paying $20 for the whole thing haha.

sounds good!!

 

[X Knight]

well, let's see if the 2nd time is a charm.

traded in my PS3, got the $50 coupon, and used my store credit and gift cards to get the CoD bundle and Sunset!!

so.....I started my BF shopping early!! lol

and this time...........I plan on actually opening the box and keeping the thing.

LOL.

Weren't you the one going on and on and on about how ugly that console was?

my opinions on it............evolved.

Haha, so over/under 1 week before they "evolve" back and you return it?

but I got a pretty good deal on it........so I'm gonna keep it. for real this time. honest.

Haha nice. Yea theres a lot of good deals going around. Im still working on convincing myself that I don't need that white SO bundle. Now that Iv got all my data on my external HDD, going to a new console would be sooooo simple.

Also, i posted this in the CoD thread, but there are some issues with redeeming the CoD code that came in that bundle, so ya might wanna hold off on redeeming it until the issues are ironed out.

 

[X Knight]

yeah. I saw that. thanks!!
