Game Stop Launches Xbox One sale Promotion

Gamers looking to grab an Xbox One console, accessories or games may want to head over to your local Game stop to check out a new sales promotion.

Running just Friday and Saturday, the new promo slashes the prices of certain Xbox One accessories and games and promises to lower the cost of console itself depending on what you offer a trade-in. One example, you can save $10 on an Xbox One Controller and $20 on a Xbox Live Gold Membership when you buy a console. You can also save $20 on Xbox One Stereo headset and $30 on a Turtle Beach Ear Force X07 headset.

Sales of the Xbox One console itself have lagged behind those of Sony Play Station 4, which passed 7 million worldwide sale in April. Earlier this month, Microsoft began selling the Xbox One with the price of the Playstation 4. 

The selection of the games designed for the Xbox One has also initially been limited. Microsoft took advantage of the E3 gaming industry event earlier this month to emphasize games and promise more titles to come. Until then, any promotions from any major retailers such as GameStop could provide the Xbox One with a much-needed shot in the arm.

On the game front, GameStop's sale is offering Wolfenstein: The New Order, NBA2k14 and Zumba Fitness World Party for $20 off the regular price. In a deal good until JULY 13, consumers can score an extra 50 percent credit by trading in any system toward an Xbox One.

For example, trading in a Xbox One 360 (S Model) 320 GB console normally scores a trade-in value of $75. Add in the 50 percent bonus and yet get $112 total that can shave the cost of a Xbox One.
