This should increase the number of people playing Forza 5.
It was with an Xbox bundled with Forza 3 that got me started with the driving game we all love.

I already own both but I think it will be a great bundle.
forza has been microsofts included game historically. it’s cost effective. once sales start slowing its not really costing them lost sales and may cause dlc purchasees. they may actually make more money than they lose. plus they can write off the retail price as advertising and promotion on their taxes. and if they start going download rather than disk as they did with skyrim its gonna be pure profit with no used game sales increasing supply vs demand or even game trading. it was one of the options for free games at launch in euroland with fifa being the other.
i got and xb1 FM5 bundle at christmas, they aren’t new
Not sure where you live, but the only bundle options in America were the bundle options where you paid for the extra game and saved no money. It was more of a hey, you are buying Forza and an Xbox One? Why not just buy the bundle together for $559.99? Same price as before, but you just get them together.
Whereas with this bundle it is the same price as buying a basic console ($500) and getting the game for free as an added bonus, similarly to their Titanfall Bundle.
Eh my launch console was bundled with it anyway.
In the uk it was difficult to get the forza 5 bundle before january I ended up getting the console and game seperatly.
Some area (Great Britain for one, I believe) had the bundles available during the first launch. Other areas, like the USA did not except for a few “special” retailer deals where you could pick a game. And we (USA) are favored in some peoples’ eyes. Just like FM2 and the Limited Collector’s Edition, which was released everywhere in the world, including just across the border in Canada, but not in Turn 10’s home country.
che never got me a green disk to make up for fm2 unavalibility either.
I had just read about this bundle. Unfortunately it means more players who don’t care about racing will be flooding the hoppers just to wreck people.
Come on Turn 10. Can you at least please tell us if public lobbies are in the works?
Because every new person who gets this game wants to crash people. Some forget, that all of us were new to this game at some point in time.
His point is that people who don’t care about the game become crashes for intertainment.
Has anyone heard any additional info on the ONE/F5 download bundle? I called a Gamestop store and a BestBuy store today, and neither one of them was aware of this special promotion.
Also searched the internet a little and there did not seem to be any update as to which retailers are going to go this deal.
Thanks,

3/11/14 edit = got an answer today. Checked out Gamestop and BestBuy sites and they are now offering the free F5 when you buy the XBOX for $499.
