Seeing the PS4 conquer much success not only with its games but also its fans, Microsoft and Xbox had to come out swinging to compete against Sony. This begs the question of seeing more bundles with various games such as Titanfall, Fifa, or Forza. Bundling various games have proven an effective strategy for the Wii U, will Microsoft follow in their success?
You might be asking, “Doesn’t it seem a little odd that they are releasing this on June 9th and at the beginning of E3?” No, not at all. That was obviously on purpose and it will certainly move more units, but will it be enough to compete against the PlayStation 4? We wil see.
