What do you all think about the new bundle coming out for Xbox One? Includes the Elite Wireless controller and a new type of internal hard drive that has better performance than the old Xbox Ones. I was going to get the Elite Wireless controller and a new Xbox One (already have a Day One Edition) anyways so my wife and I can play Halo 5 together. So this bundle is exactly what I’m looking for.

If that’s a spammer, it’s a random and clever one. ---

I don’t think it is spam. ---

Yes it is. He’s a shill for that TechU4ria site. I pulled a bunch of links, but doing a google search for the screen name (in quotes) and TechU4ria will pull up plenty for you to look at yourself. I found at least a half-dozen with variations on this exact post and others linking to different articles on that site. ---

Interesting. I reported it originally because it’s a spammy OP with a recent join date. If I’d looked at the posting history, I’d probably have left it - he’s posted 11 times, and the posts aren’t just filler. But neither did I do what **Johnny Bravo** did, and check the wider Internet. Quite a lot of work to get your message in, you’d think, but perhaps also more likely to slip by unnoticed.
