After buying Wolfenstein (really loving this one) and Metro i'm glad i've finally had the excuse i needed to dust off my Xbox One again. Those two (and Zoo Tycoon ) should keep me occupied until Forza Horizon 2 comes out and the Chief Collection.

Add me for when you get Horizon 2, 47! I'm buffaloman01.

I reckon it is! Two massive games packed in for the same price as the basic console. Personally I'd be tempted to go for the Kinect option (I know ) but the cheaper pack is probably the sensible choice.
