One that’ll be appealing to anyone curious about getting into virtual reality is this discounted deal on Amazon US of a 128GB Meta Quest 2 virtual reality headset, now only $249. You can also claim a digital $50 Amazon gift card when you use the code META50 at the checkout.

In terms of the Amazon US listing, it's being dubbed a Holiday bundle, but all the above listings contain the same contents - including not only the Meta Quest 2 VR headset itself, but also two controllers, a silicone cover, glasses spacer, and all the usual components you’d expect such as a charging cable and power adapter.
As for the headset itself, it’s a great way to jump into virtual reality gaming, particularly because it doesn’t actually require any other hardware to use unlike some other headsets on the market. This means, once you boot up the Quest, it’ll let you play, download and check out various games and software, all from within the headset itself.
When it comes to games, you’ve got tons of great picks to play on the platform including Resident Evil 4 and Beat Saber, both of which are two of the most critically-acclaimed titles available on the platform – and from a personal standpoint, Beat Saber in particular is the one that stands out to me as the reason to buy a VR headset.
