Looking for something more specific, like a 1TB PS4 Pro, or a new hard drive to store all your game downloads? Our price-finder guides below will help you find the cheapest console bundles, accessory deals, and hot games you can buy this Christmas. Our price-finder pulls in the latest price updates from all major online retailers, so you know you're getting the best available deal.

Best PS4 bundle deals

Pick up a PlayStation 4 and some extra games 

Sony has made things a little trickier for gift-givers this year, adding the more powerful PS4 Pro console to its lineup alongside the existing PS4. If you're willing to spend a little extra on a brand new system, go for the future-proofed PS4 Pro, which looks amazing on 4K TVs and has the capacity to enhance certain games. Whichever version of the PS4 you go with, these deals offer some incredible value.

Best Xbox One bundle deals

Give the gift of Xbox on the cheap 

Microsoft's current-gen console also comes in two equally tasty flavors: the standard Xbox One, and the Xbox One S, which looks sleeker (taking up much less space) and runs great games even better. If someone you know is aching to play the latest Halo or Gears of War games, these deals are the way to go.

Best hard drive for PS4

Make room for all those great games 

It doesn't take much to fill up a PS4's hard drive; once you've installed a few games, you might find yourself in need of some more space. These hard drives are the perfect remedy, giving PS4 players tons of extra room to install their ever-expanding game libraries.

Best external hard drive for Xbox One

More storage means fewer headaches 

Depending on which version of the Xbox One you buy, your hard drive may or may not have room for a collection of games (including backwards-compatible Xbox 360 titles). But more storage space is always welcome - and with these easy-to-set-up external hard drives, you'll be able to stock up your Xbox One with more gaming goodness.

Whether you're listening for the footsteps of an incoming enemy, or taking in the majestic musical score in a cinematic, great headphones can amplify the best bits of your favorite games. These headphones offer superb sound quality at a range of reasonable prices, and will be music to the ears of all the audiophiles in your life.

A great TV can add another dimension to a video game's visuals, adding a new layer of color, crispness, and clarity to already-impressive graphics. Buying a new TV can be an intimidating process, but these selections - which include cutting-edge perks like 4K and HDR displays - give you the most bang for your buck when giving such an extravagant gift.
