    Nice deals…

  • dasher86 on 28/02/2017 - 14:33

    Conflicted on which bundle to buy.

    Online or the other two.
    Online has more games and I've never owned any Xbox before but I've played Battlefield and FIFA on PS / PS.
    Never did like Halo as I never got the time to play enough of it.

    • King Steuart on 28/02/2017 - 15:12

      Well this gives you Halo 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and Halo Wars 2 so it's only missing ODST, Reach (which is great) and the first Halo Wars. I'd call it a pretty damn good Halo starter pack. The first 2 are "Anniversary" editions so the textures are HD/remade.

      • ode1online on 28/02/2017 - 15:15

        Fairly certain ODST can be downloaded after you install the collection. Cause of all the issues they had at launch

        • narcoleptic-haze on 28/02/2017 - 15:32
          +2

          This is correct, however it's not free. But i think from memory it's only around $6-$7 so still not bad.

          @narcoleptic-haze: OK cool
          It was free I you had played it prior to a certain date..
          cheers Sorry if I accidently mislead anyone.

          Online users that logged in with their Xbox Live account and played Halo: The Master Chief Collection on any day from November 11, 2014 through December 19, 2014 at 11:59 pm PDT are eligible for a free code granting access to the Campaign for Halo 3: ODST on Xbox One. Offer is non-transferable

        Really hope they end up redoing Reach (and 3 while we're wishing for things, I guess), even if it's just minor texture touchups and performance increases. It could be the convincing factor in an Xbox One purchase, if they didn't release it on PC. Ah well, I can dream.

  • froggym on 28/02/2017 - 14:39

    I just bought it for 400 a week ago. They didn't bither to send us any download tokens and are running us around trying to get them.

      Who did you speak to, i'll see if I can help?

      All the digital download codes should have been sent with the console and Halo Wars 2, I know they had stock.

      • froggym on 28/02/2017 - 15:09

        I ordered it in my partners name so he has been talking to them. We called thursday but got cut off just as we connected because they closed. Called friday and they said we would be contected yesterday then called today and told they would call tomorrow. Who knows if they actually will.

        • AssociatedOriginalDelBoy @ BIG W on 28/02/2017 - 15:17

          I have made a couple of calls and they will look out for your email and get the issue sorted.

        Should the download codes be listed on the receipt? Ours only showed the minecraft bundle and halo wars 2.

          I bought mine last week too.

          Halo tokens were missing for me also. I've already emailed and they are going to send them out to me. Looks like I wasn't the only one.

          Now I wish I'd waited a week.

        • froggym on 28/02/2017 - 18:07

          @Elyxar:I just got an email too telling me they were sending the tokens. Im glad the online team is on the ball. It felt like the people on the phone were just running us around thinking we were lying.

  • Raynes on 28/02/2017 - 14:48

    Halo Wars 2 is a physical copy, does that mean it's not Play Anywhere?

    Friends,

    I recommend waiting. The switch will like cause the xb1 and ps4 to have sales.

    • aja12 on 28/02/2017 - 14:56
      +3

      The Switch launching at $470 is going to have no direct impact on Microsoft and Sony pricing.

    • Jase2801 on 28/02/2017 - 14:57

      True but isn't this a sale? How low can they go?

      • Trishool on 28/02/2017 - 15:39
        +1

        If anything I think this sale will just become the standard price for the XB1S 500GB bundles in the coming weeks.

    • King Steuart on 28/02/2017 - 15:13
      +1

      This IS the sale to go against Switch. Switch launches on the 3rd..

    • gromit on 28/02/2017 - 16:26

      unlikely, switch is much more expensive and doesn't target the same audience, there is simply no reason to put on sales to combat switch.

    How much would you get for the 6 games? Could be a cheap blu ray player.

    • AssociatedOG Puppy Banana @ BIG W on 28/02/2017 - 15:06
      +3

      Given they are only codes, I'd pay….

      Halo Wars 2 (physical copy)- $40 as new release
      Minecraft (digital copy) - $10 (Some might pay $15 as retailers still want $29)
      Halo 5 (digital copy) - $10 (Old game, but great meta community)
      Halo Master Chief Collection (digital copy) - $5-10 (Excellent value, still broken, pretty good meta community, these codes are on every xbox purchase, bringing down value exponentially)
      Rainbow Six (digital copy) - bundle all three for $40 (Some might go to $50, though it's a stretch)

      $110 all up ($120 at best)

      Bundled at $99, I'd be keen, even though I already own most of these.

      Then again, what do I know…?

      • cheepo on 28/02/2017 - 21:47

  • cheepo on 28/02/2017 - 15:29

    Your meant to get the physical games and codes upon purchase right?

      100% you are, this is the first issue I have heard of regarding codes not being received.

      I pointed them in the right direction of who to contact and let the department know what the issue is and to get it sorted a.s.a.p.

      • cheepo on 28/02/2017 - 16:50

        Thanks for clarifying.

  • Mooncakes on 28/02/2017 - 15:42

  • Sammyj on 28/02/2017 - 15:45

    Someone correct me if I'm wrong but in the big w catalogue it had the minecraft Xbox one s and halo wars 2 for $399 so if you buy it online you get the other games ?

    • AssociatedOriginalDelBoy @ BIG W on 28/02/2017 - 15:51

      The brochure deal would have been confirmed weeks ago however the offers you are seeing from Big W and other retailers are due to a flash sale that Microsoft are running for the 1st and 2nd of March :)

      Hope that makes sense

      • melb-ourne on 28/02/2017 - 16:24

    Hi,

    Is the online Big W checkout system able to process 2 different payments for the 1 transaction as I have a $200 Visa gift card I'd like to use towards this bundle and then pay the difference with another card.

    Thanks.

    • isdnman on 28/02/2017 - 16:49

      No, only one card. But you can purchase $200 BigW gift card and pay the balance with another card then.

      • ovrsze on 28/02/2017 - 16:50

  • cheapfab on 28/02/2017 - 17:12

    Sorry just want to confirm something:

    For the in-store offers - e.g. Xbox One S 500GB console + Battlefield 1 + Halo Wars 2: $329

    1) Are the games physical discs (i.e. FIFA17 or BF1 and Halo Wars 2) or are some games in disc format and some codes

    Online offer
    2) The online offer seems to be the current Minecraft boxed bundle (where the actual packaging is Minecraft themed) - are the other games just included as separate cards / and discs or are they included in the pack, and for the in-store offers is it just the standard white packaging?

    and just as a final query - Why would anyone buy the in store Minecraft offer over the online offer then?

  • sydney.jj on 28/02/2017 - 17:13

    Can any insiders tell us why these been going so cheap now? Everything happened for a reason right?

    • AlienC on 28/02/2017 - 17:49
      +1

      No idea as to the real reason why but my guess is to claim some market share before Nintendo switch kicks in.

      Very good deals and they are really only losing a few dollars but for large market share.. Xbox has become very hard to justify with it's limited exclusives. Unless your a hard core fan boy of one of the titles PlayStation pretty much has it all so their power play and only move now is price.

      Think if amd was lacking in sales and needed to move a lot of stock very fast before a new competitor was coming in.. price is the only answer besides some exclusivity.

      But there are a million reasons as to why this is just my own speculation take it as you will.

    • Tasmaniac on 28/02/2017 - 20:37

      Some people say they're trying to claw back market share. My theory is that they're just selling 30% more at 30% less.

    In the space of a few minutes and during the time I was writing this:

    http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NEW-Xbox-One-S-500GB-Halo-Wars-2-…

    was available for $199

    They're adjusting the price however and it's now reverted to $399, I expect that it will come down to $299.

    Here are the revision times:

        Yeah benefit would be getting 10% off via ebay C10 and 1.3% cashrewards, looks like it's still sitting at $399 and not being revised to $299

    • pw2002au on 01/03/2017 - 10:30

      4 people managed to pick it up on ebay when incorrectly priced at $199 and with the c10 on top would have been 180ish + postage!
