The Black Friday fever is on the rise as the big day approaches, and Oculus has not wanted to be less by offering $100 of store credit to those who buy a Rift on that day in certain physical stores.
Virtual reality also wants to make us feel the need to spend these days, and if yesterday HTC confirmed a discount of € 100 when buying Vive, now Oculus makes a similar offer, although in our opinion quite less attractive, since a direct discount on the price of the product is always preferable to give us the option to buy games with what we save or not to buy anything and enjoy the sale. In the case of Oculus, if we buy a Rift at Best Buy, Amazon and the Microsoft online store, we will have a $ 100 coupon that we can redeem to buy games and experiences in the Oculus store. This applies to american buyers, for the time being in Europe has only been confirmed that it will be available in the United Kingdom (Game), France (FNAC) and Germany (Saturn), so it seems that Spain and a handful of countries are left out, a fact that is very difficult to digest. Perhaps it would have been simpler to also offer the discount in the Oculus online store itself, which is a place available to buy from anywhere in the world, and in this way no one would be left out of this promotion. Instead, we will have to settle for some discounts on games from the store that will be available on the same day. It seems that Oculus Black Friday is only for a few.
