Yeah better than bundles before, both had 4 games total for same price :)
Do you know if they are they physical copies or digital download codes?
AC Are downloads and others are hard copies
Do the codes come in the box as well as the games or seperate i.e will i have to crack the box to get the codes etc
Just bought this today:
https://ebgames.com.au/xbox-one-800336-Xbox-One-Console--Kin…
I still think it a better deal.
But my order will arrive on the 30 of Dec..after Xmas :(
That deal has no Xbox Live, and Forza 5 and COD are download tokens.
This MS deal is better IMO
Goodluck with getting it even then.
My experience with EB Online store has been very substandard. We wont be using them again. :-(
Not sure why you are being negged as that is a great selection of games. Only con is that it doesn't include the 12mo of Live which makes sense that Microsoft can give that away for free in their bundles.
Microsoft use TOLL I believe … good luck on the delivery pre xmas ;) Also dont forget to use cash rewards - shame that SavooPreXmasOffer14 is no longer valid for an extra bit off. The addition of Halo to choose from is a bonus.
It says express delivery so should arrive on time
Not only this, but it clearly states on the website - "Order by 19/12 10AM for FREE Christmas delivery"

That's the promise. TOLL is the reality.
Yeah Toll are awful.
Ordered a bundle like this a few months back, got the extra controller and games first, console came a week later. Not fun.
Well if it doesn't; arrive I would ask MS For a gift card or something since they are advertising the delivery
I have good experience with toll, sometimes got my delivery before the expecting date.
Yeah, TOLL screwed up my MS Store delivery too. Kept ringing my neighbour's doorbell and then claiming I wasn't home.
Mine just kept carding the letter box…
About time they bundled Halo - silly to have waited so long. Great deal.
I so want one but I have a 360 and another one boxed from this time last year which I've not really touched.
Edit: I see the correction
This is a super deal. MCC, FH2 and Sunset are the only three games I have on my XB1 and they're (IMO) the best exclusives on the platform. The $499 bundle with those three games is a great deal.
If they're not your cup of tea, all three should fetch ~$60 sealed on eBay. Resale value of Unity and Black Flag codes has plummeted though, probably only worth $30 if you're lucky now when reselling. So if you sold all the games (assuming you were after other titles instead), it would be roughly $289 with a year of Live included.
Pretty good.
Yep, this is the way to go. I got this deal back in early nov with the $20 off code + cash rewards for about $460. Was early enough to get $60 each for Ac unity, forza 2 and Sunset od. Got $30 for ryse and Ac black flag. Sold the live too for $50. So all up i was $170 out of pocket for xbone console!
Yeah that was an extra nice bonus the code, but they didn't have halo as choice did they?
Nah, it wasn't even out back then
Brought this console bundle a couple of weeks ago as I thought there wouldn't be a better offer before Christmas, at least the AC games are physical copies but wish I'd got the extra game.
I haven't kept up with console games in a long time, how much could you expect to resell some of these games and the Gold for?
Read above
My bad, didn't see that.
All good I should have put a :) @ the end of that
I sold for top dollar but i reckon youd be able to sell each quickly on gumtree for $10 less than i did above
Awesome deal!!
Anyone knows how do I sell the downloaded games from the bundle?
Ebay or Gumtree?
or the forums here :)
will this be the best deal to date? is it worth waiting for boxing day deals?
It's hard to tell whether there will be a better deal and if there is you just don't know if these games will be available then as they sold out last time
Aww yiss, the deal I was waiting for, console + Halo + gold with plenty of eBay rebates.
Thanks OP just purchased hope to sell the games off for an ok price.
Damn, got one a few days ago.. Same $499 package without the 12months gold.
Excellent deal with the live gold thrown in. So was the other deal with the 2nd controller a couple weeks back. However the main reason to buy an xbox (for me) is halo and considering the great mess that it, I will continue to hold off on purchasing :(
I popped on this deal, thanks OP
apart from Zoo Tycoon what other 2 games arnt worth getting?
Killer instinct and ryse son of rome
Awesome deal. Just picked up the $499 bundle with Sunset Overdrive, Forza Horizon 2 and Halo Masterchief Edition. Only fear I have is the people who have had poor experiences with Toll. Really hoping this arrives before Christmas.
I had already bought Just Dance 2015 for the missus and was worried I wouldn't get to use my console on the Christmas break. This solves that :-) I'll just take the Kinect off my console and she's set.
Any idea what the trade in value is for Forza Horizon 2 and Halo Masterchief Edition? I already owned those games, but figured I could get ~$50ish for them. None of the other games interested me, so I grabbed the two I expected were worth the most.
Ordered last night, just received postage confirmation via email. Now it's just you and me, TOLL.
Yeah if everyone can let us know on here how the delivery goes that would be great for future deals :)
Mine was delivered within 48 hours, no issue's at all.
Ordered Wednesday night, it just arrived now at 12pm on Friday
Thanks for the feedback guys, much appreciated :)
As other have said, ordered Wednesday night, just arrived now in SA, 1:50pm Friday.
I shipped mine to a parcel locker for an experiment, prob needs to be redirected because toll can't deliver to a parcel locker?
This has gotten me thinking, I won an xbox one with kinect. Already own an xbox one, I'm about to flog off the Xbox one on gumtree/ebay for ~450. Maybe I should be grabbing this first, then selling the xbox on its own. 6 games for 50 bucks that way.
Do the games arrive as codes or pre installed?
Codes.
Also is the assasins creed branding a removable slip?
Jumped in on the $499 bundle with FH2, Halo and SOD. Best deal for months, JBHIFI pales in comparison.
Just had the Xbox delivered in Melbourne. Ordered Wednesday night.
Anyone used the cashback offer? How long does it take to receive confirmation that cash back offer went through?
should get a tracking receipt 1 day after purchase
Ordered my console yesterday morning. It arrived around lunchtime today. Victoria to NSW.
Very happy with that. My first experience with Toll and it was fortunately an excellent one.
Anyone get a cash back tracking receipt today? I didn't.
Me neither…
Was a bit worried reading the comments about toll. But only took a day and a half for my bundle to arrive, (oredered at 10pm received at 3pm a day and a half later). Very good service.
Mine was delivered today. Hate toll. They always come after 5pm and I wait at home all day just in case they are earlier.
Still no cashback tracking receipt though, anyone else still waiting?
yeah, i'm waiting from August. They reckon they've never received confirmation from Microsoft that I bought it, and I've given them my invoice and all that for them to chase it up with, and nothing.
disappointing, but it was more of a bonus rather than something I was expecting.
When I had that problem with BCF, I followed It up and sent them my invoice and about a month later they confirmed the cash back and added to my account. A bit annoying. Hopefully all works out for you. I would like the cash back as it was a factor that helped me to pull the trigger on this deal. Hopefully will get a tracking receipt soon.
Ive messaged them a bunch and theyve stopped responding..
66 votes and no one has responded if they got cash back yet? Trying to decide whether I need to contact them. For ebay I get the tracking receipt within 2 days.
I received my cash back receipt a day after I ordered on the 19th. Might be a good idea to contact them, see what's up?
Proof: http://imgur.com/MkVpd02
I got that as well, but never actually GOT the cashback in Avaliable funds. It's just sitting there teasing me.
Yeah the cash back arrives about a month or maybe a little more later. This is the second time I haven't got a tracking receipt, going to have to contact them and hope they will claim the cash back for me.
Where does it say that you get 12 months of xbox live gold? I can't see it anywhere, not sure if I'm just blind or what
Also I can't actually figure out how to purchase it… i select the console the games and the controller, and then there's no button for check out or anything, just the "review your bundle" on the bar at the bottom but nothing comes up when i click it :\
edit: ok got it working in firefox
Ok just to let anyone know, this deal no longer has the xbox live gold subscription code but it comes with an extra controller instead
Couldn't resist this one.
Got Forza 2, MCC and Sunset Overdrive.
Hopefully comes with hard copies of AC.
just bought $499 bundle a couple of hours ago, turns out to be great value especially if you can manage to sell off unwanted games or live (some can be resold for $60 each)
