Black Friday is coming up fast. If you're looking to stuff an Xbox One under the tree this season, you won't have to camp out in long lines and cold weather.
Microsoft is planning to discount the Xbox One online from Black Friday all the way through Cyber Monday. In fact, starting Thursday, November 26, 2015, you will find the Xbox One at select retailers for just $299 -- and that's the lowest price we've ever seen for this gaming console. Also know that this starting price will be for a bundle, so you won't just get the console, you'll actually get some goodies to go with it!
The Xbox One features a 500GB hard drive, which you can load up with games from Xbox Live. (There are expansion options, too.) Of course, there are a ton of disc-based games as well, with Xbox One Backward Compatibility now available for hundreds of Xbox 360 titles (and more on the way). When your eyes are getting twitchy from too much gaming, you can flip over to hundreds of apps and services, including Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Instant Video, HBO Go, Sling TV, iHeartRadio, Pandora, and much more.

In addition to the $299 bundles, Microsoft is also planning 12 Xbox One holiday bundles for $50 off the regular retail price. Instead of limiting bundle options to something uber-violent or just for the kids, there will be a little something for everyone here. Look for bundles that include Halo 5: Guardians, Rise of the Tomb Raider, The Lego Movie Videogame, FIFA 16, Madden NFL 16, and even Forza Motorsport.
Also look for more than 150 game deals, with some featuring up to 60 percent off specific titles. If you've got an Xbox Live Gold account, you'll be privy to some of those deals in advance, as well as an additional 10 percent discount.
Look for select console bundles to be discounted between Thursday, November 26, all the way through Monday, November 30 in the U.S. Check out the specific retailers listed below for information on prices and bundle options.
