New deal for the Xboner. Yes it works with any existing bundles (Kinect bundle, Madden Bundle).
The game has to be retail and available at the time of purchase.
This is basically Microsoft's version of the Destiny bundle. Thoughts?
More deets:
For one week only – from September 7 through September 13 – when you buy an Xbox One from participating retailers in the U.S., you’ll get a free Xbox One game of your choice.
The offer is valid for any retail Xbox One game, and the offer is good for our Xbox One system bundles, too – so if you want to pick up the Xbox One Madden NFL 15 Bundle or Forza Motorsport 5 Bundle, you’re getting another free game of your choice priced at $59.99 or lower on top of it!

This deal is amazing. So glad I was holding off on buying an X1 until Destiny. Guess I can only buy an X1 now...seeing as I can't technically purchase Destiny when it's coming free. *drops mic*

Sounds like a good deal (if you're interested in those games). Ninty did something similar a few weeks back. Suggests they're still having trouble moving units though. Personally if I was in the market I'd still be waiting for the inevitable slim / redesign. By then there would probably be more games that interested me and the UI would be improved.

Time to cancel that Destiny pre-order!

Oh Phil, I love it when you do this to me.
-
Wtf. Why can't they give people that purchased it long ago a free game? bastards
-
Does this only apply at the store itself? Or can I pre-order a bundle and choose a free game with it? There's this deal where I can get a Xbox One for 400 euros with Fifa 15 and Forza Motorsport 5. I will sell those 2 games, but if I can get another game I could sell that one too. Or keep it if I like it.

Wish they did this a long time ago so I couldve got a free -blam!-ing game
-
Staying competitive i like it
-
Release day in Japan went HORRIBLE they gotta do something. This is unheard of but a great deal for people on the fence. Smart to do it during destiny release, playstation is probably still going to edge them out for the exclusive and timed release content though.
-
All those games suck
-
No thanks.
-
This is a good deal. Giving people more choice at a competitive price is always a good choice.

Edited by HurtfulTurkey: 9/4/2014 3:28:55 PM[quote]Yes it works with any existing bundles (Foza+Kinect bundle, Madden Bundle, Titanfall)[/quote] It states pretty clearly that the only bundles this works with are the Kinect, Madden 15, or Forza. There are quite a few bundles out there (CoD:AW and Destiny, for example) that don't appear to qualify.

Where can I buy this?
-
Nice, though will this deal be available if you buy it from the Microsoft Store?
-
I like it. You can get Destiny plus a bundled game for $399. That is a smooth move, Phil.
