Honestly, it's a black Friday deal.
They could have give a 20$ back but they are giving you a free game instead.
Perhaps some store will give you a free PS5 or Xbox serie X game when you buy 3 games. Should we call this fraud again?

Just gamers complaining they bought something before a deal showed up. Whining like it's something new.

Gamers bought PS4 and got nothing with it unless they paid more from Gamestop bundles. I waited and got a PS4 for $299 that came with the Uncharted Collection for free, Until Dawn for free, TLofU for free that I didn't play on PS3. Then, bought 1886 for $10. And, got a discount on PS Plus for $25 which I don't pay online anymore but it was a good deal at the time.

I bought PSVR at launch for $500 with moves even though I had 2 moves already from PS3. All I got was a demo disc. Gamers now get bundles for $300 or less with Iron Man, Astrobot, Everybody's Golf, Skyrim, etc. I don't feel cheated for buying at launch. Because I got to enjoy PSVR for a lot longer than new players.

These gamers whining could have easily waited for a better deal to come along. But feel entitled because they bought Quest 2 early and think Facebook owes them. I wouldn't buy it because it's Facebook. But they should be happy that they got a great, inexpensive, wireless headset for $299. Apparently, that's not enough.

I just picked up one yesterday... but I don’t have a gaming PC. I have to admit I’m pretty impressed with the quality of the visuals. Huge step up from my PSVR.

Tempting... but I have to say I am more of an arcade deluxe cab fan. I loved the ones for Galaxy Force, Thunder Blade and After Burner.
