PlayStation 4 and Xbox One as well as their predecessors will be some of the most anticipated devices this upcoming Black Friday. Consumers itching to get their hands on the gaming consoles will be delighted with the lineup of discounts that will be available during the shopping festival. 

Below are deals and discounts that one should anticipate if they want to take home a gaming console this Black Friday. 

PlayStation 4 

Target and Best Buy will be offering the PlayStation 4 bundle with "Grand Theft Auto V" and digital remastered version of "The Last of Us" titles for $400. 

Walmart, on the other hand, will offer the PlayStation 4 Mega Console Bundle with a camera, controller, and a game title of choice for $509. 

Xbox One 

Rivaling the PS4 is the Xbox One, which is the update of Xbox 360. Target offers the most attractive deal for this gaming console. The retailer offers the device for $330 that includes the 500 GB Xbox One console, digital downloads of "Assassin's Creed Unity" and "Assassin's Creed: Black Flag" as well as a $50 Target GiftCard. 

Best Buy offers the same bundle as Target, but does not throw in a gift card. Meanwhile, Walmart offers the console for $350. The three retailers also offer Xbox One titles for a lesser price. 

Microsoft offers the Xbox One for $50 less than the original price. Thus, one can pick up the console for $349 until Jan. 3. Dell will also offer its own Xbox One bundle for $329.99 that comes with "Assassin's Creed: Unity" and "Assassin's Creed: Black Flag" on Nov. 27 at 6 p.m. 

PlayStation 3 

The PlayStation 3 is now being sold for less. GameStop offers the 250 GB console, "Batman: Arkham Origins," "The Last of Us," and a free PlayStation Network membership for $200.  

Xbox 360  

Because of the Xbox One, Xbox 360's price dipped low. The Xbox 360 costs $180 at Target for the 4 GB version of the console including Xbox Kinect and three games: "Kinect Sports," "Kinect Adventures," and "Forza Horizon." The handset also has Xbox Live Gold for online play. This saves the buyer $80.
