From November you'll be able to get the set for $499 -- pre-orders start today (http://www.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/consoles/elite-bundle/home) in the US and it'll be exclusive to GameStop and Microsoft Stores for the first month. For comparison, the regular 1TB Xbox One bundle costs $399 (http://www.engadget.com/2015/06/09/microsoft-1TB-Xbox-one/) -- so with the $150 Elite controller thrown in, you're getting at least $50 in savings. If you need a reminder, Microsoft's new gamepad has an extra four bumpers on the back, "hair trigger locks" and the ability to customize the thumbsticks and D-padwith extra swappable parts (http://www.engadget.com/2015/08/07/xbox-one-elite-controller/).
