i believe 128gb is enough.
this is fun to have, much much much better than the old generation of VR headsets.

No discount but this was sold out for weeks until today and i know some people are waiting for it so here is the post.

Benefit of buying in amazon is their best customer service.
In the case of faulty they will send replacement first and you can return the defect unit in 2 weeks.

Don't forget participating in the referral scheme to get A$47. Access the referral randomiser for Oculus here.

        • chillipaste on 19/01/2022 - 15:07

          I was worried about being banned for doing this - has their been any banning recently or has beatsaber basically turned a blind eye on this?

          I opted and still love synthriders for this - custom songs is 100% supported, and a much better music rhythm game.

          • Third_Gear on 19/01/2022 - 15:14
            +1

            @chillipaste: I don’t know about banning but given the age of the community and the need to buy the game on Quest to do it I don’t think they care. Chrome mod and the custom songs just take it to a new level.

            I tried Synth but couldn’t get into it. Just love the flow of Beatsaber too much.

          • Leho on 19/01/2022 - 15:15

            @chillipaste: oculus doesnt really care about modding games, there will be a scary warning whenever you open the game because its sideloaded, but the chance of you getting banned from it are almost none.

            @chillipaste: Not a single person has been banned I believe.

            Just do it. I'm enjoying the mods and custom songs way too much.

            • RichardMelbourne on 19/01/2022 - 17:39

              @I Smell Pennies: Oh so I can get music I like, then, instead of just the stuff they sell for Beat Saber?

              • Third_Gear on 19/01/2022 - 20:31

                @RichardMelbourne: Yes. There are thousands of songs made by fans but I recommend being able to play on Extreme difficulty as a bare minimum as so many of the songs start on extreme. The game doesn’t really feel fun until you play it at higher levels. Well for me. My brain can’t keep up with extreme plus though!! I’m getting to old. Should be moving so fast that you are breaking a sweat though. A lot easier if you use the two finger claw grip too so you can swing and flick faster.

                Chrome mod basically adds a whole new level of special effects. This is a great track and is an excellent example.

                Set up a bsaber account and you use the website to mark favourites and then just load all of them via BMBF.

    Isn't this just the normal price now? There doesn't seem to be any discount to it. Is it just that its back in stock and thats why you're posting this 'deal'?

      +1

      Isn't this just the normal price now?

      Correct, in a way. When it's in stock, this is the "standard" price.

      But:

      • It's been out of stock for months, so the actual price in that time was ebay scalper prices, which were much higher.

      • The normal price is still a great deal when similar quality alternative VR systems are double and triple the price.

      So yes, this is technically a bargain, by definition.

      • bgbrendan on 20/01/2022 - 11:57

        I got mine last time as it came with 100 bucks amazon credit, don't think this is really a deal at normal price

    • Azro on 19/01/2022 - 16:40

      The logic of Ozbargain. Sometimes someone posts something like this and gets downvoted into oblivion because there is no deal. And sometimes they get 50 upvotes because why not.

                    @CyberMurning: Probably not because of blank photo but duplicate accounts they will. Might take a month. Might take a year. But it'll get deleted at some point. I would just use real account or ask to delink from Facebook which they allow.

                        @CyberMurning: Different surname doesn't matter. If it's a fake account or you use two accounts they will eventually figure out. Facebook does what it wants so who knows. I had a separate account years ago and was removed without warning.

      Facebook sucks, but if you want a high-quality VR headset (and you do if you like video games at all, it's pretty amazing) this is a third of the price of the competition.

      If it's any consolation, you aren't giving money to Facebook when you buy these, since they cost more than this to make.

      • nuts on 19/01/2022 - 17:51

      Honestly as someone that has been a PlayStation fan over Xbox for pretty much the entire console war between them I'd trust MS over Facebook, Google, PlayStation etc any day. I have serious trust issues with Facebook/Meta and I don't trust Sony to be able to look after my interests from outside parties.

      • Diji1 on 19/01/2022 - 14:23

        No idea why you would trust one of the largest data aggregrators and wanna-be ad networks - that would be Microsoft - over Sony Playstation.

        MS makes money by collecting your data, sharing and exchanging it with the other privacy violators and then selling access to it.

    Non tech person here. I believe there are two ways to play this - on it's own or hooked up to your computer in some way. My computer isn't really very powerful so if I were to just play as a stand alone, is there anywhere that tells me which games I can play? (e.g. I've heard Alyx can't be played stand-alone).

    • Pipersaurus on 19/01/2022 - 15:05

    • Leeeroy on 19/01/2022 - 15:31

      Some simpler software/games play on the device (I'm guessing it has a phone level of cpu/gpu), some streams via your PC (Half Life Alyx via SteamVR) or Oculus link streams your more demanding cpu/gpu games.

      Streaming from your PC can be done with a long USB-C cable plugged into the headset and your PC or you can enable the beta version of "Air Link" which streams over the wifi and has been working quite well for me. I think it won't be long before you won't need a cable tethered to your PC at all as long as your wifi is performant.

    • encoderboy on 19/01/2022 - 16:20

      I bought mine thinking I'd use it 100% for PCVR, and make use of the small god of a PC for it.

      In the end, I've spent most of my time playing on standalone titles. They're surprisingly good given the limited grunt driving them.

      Games like Beat Saber I actually prefer on the Quest - latency makes the Steam version suck for me.
