Another 1TB console, as that appears to be the standard (HDD are cheap now).

Gears Ultimate, Rare Replay, Ori, and Gears of Wars 360 collection (I guess that is confirming it as backwards compatible). Interesting mix. Also $399.

30-something games, 1TB HDD, $400. It does seem like a good value.

I am not at all in the market for a console, but, I already told LibrarianBeth that if they announce a specific console, I will be getting X1 #4.

Today's bundle is a waste of time. 500GB HDD with LEGO The Movie???

WTF?

$349. But, you can do better with current bundles.
I'm waiting for a bundle with a black console. Not one of the regular black ones, a really, really black one.
Interstetting:

Two bundles today


A white Gears of War console. So, the second console this week with Gears of War, but, it's white, so... ($350, not a bad price, but not great either.)



Hey! A bundle with a Kinect! That's cool. 3 games, but, they seem to be older one. $500.

But, I do like the Kinect, so, the first thing I would do with the Tuesday bundle would be to add a Kinect, making that one $550.
