Huge deals for Xbox One and X360 in the coming fortnight

Microsoft is not going to be left behind when it comes to special sales at the end of the year, with the company kicking off its Countdown sale today. The campaign runs from now until January 7, and the discounts will be dropping in two batches.

The first batch goes live today with prices good until December 28, then from December 29 until January 7 there will be another selection of discounts. And to top it all off there will also be special daily discounts as the promotion moves forward.

Luckily for us, Major Nelson has revealed the current discounts. You can see some of the highlights below, because the whole lists is just way too long to include here. The larger discounts are for Xbox Gold members, and the smaller one is for everyone else.
