Xbox One Limited Edition Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Bundle





Xbox One Bundle Comparison
There are now several Xbox One bundles to choose from over the holidays, and this Call of Duty bundle is a good option. But just in case another one will be a better match for you, here is a comparison with holiday price drops:

Xbox One, no Kinect: $349
- Barebones, nothing extra, not a great deal, don't get this one.

Xbox One with Kinect: $449
- Same as above, but includes Kinect. No other bonuses, don't get this bundle.

Xbox One Assassin's Creed Bundle, no Kinect: $349
- This includes both Assassin's Creed black flag (digital version), which is playable immediately after download, and Assassin's Creed Unity, which you can pre-download, but it is not playable until release date, which is still 1-2 weeks away. As you can see, this is the same price as the barebones XBO, but includes 2 free games, making it a pretty sweet deal if you don't care about the Kinect.

Xbox One Assassin's Creed Bundle, with Kinect: $449
- Same as...

Great 1 Tb Package: Go with it over a Kinect One!
So there have been many negative reviews about this package. Here is my story and opinion:

So I have wanted an Xbox One for some time and was waiting for a larger hard drive system to be released at a reasonable price. I personally really did not care about the included Call of Duty game or the console graphics, I purchased the system to play Forza Horizon and the Halo Master Chief Collection. Both have been great games. I must say the console and included wireless controller look pretty cool and do not overly scream Call of Duty. The custom sounds the console makes when ejecting a disk and turning on/off are also not overdone. The graphics are pretty great (not as good as my gaming pc, but good for a console) and great games like Forza, Halo, Gears, etc. can only be played on Xbox.

There have been many complaints about the game downloading. The included game is a downloadable copy and not a physical disk copy. My school has terrible internet speed so at about...

Great Console - Epic Failure on Day One Release of COD: AW
First let me say that I purchased this console not because I am a huge COD fan. I purchased it because it looks cool and it came with a 1 Terabyte hard drive.

The unit arrived on the date promised at the usual 2:00 PM window that UPS delivers in my area. The item was undamaged. The console comes with everything needed to get it hooked up and running. (Note: This unit does not have a Kinect sensor) It does include a HDMI cable and even batteries for the controller. The controller matches the themed skin on the console itself and looks good sitting next to my Star Wars Edition Xbox 360.

Setup was easy after selecting a language and time zone the unit quickly found my dual band wireless router? After providing the password it immediately downloaded an update and moved on to the Xbox Live login screen. Within a minute it had populated my existing account over from the 360 and I was in business.

Overall the console delivers everything as promised...
