The bundles are as follows:

Given new gen tech is out those prices are horrible. I expected better holiday prices than that (or at least more value): with maybe that current price model as a stand-in after the holiday rush. As a consumer this turns me off, as a gamer this is an insult. Sony - your turn.

I won't even factor Nintendo, as they already disappointed me on a collector's stand point with Wii-U Zelda bundle.

The fact that there will only give the 360 support for another three years instantly puts me off from getting one. YES three years is quite a long time, but I expect support to be there for as long as Microsoft are around.
