Everybody, stop what you're doing and pay attention to this awesome VR deal that's live in the UK right now.

You can get the excellent 128GB Meta Quest 2 headset for just £179 at Amazon right now if you're a Prime member (was $245). While it's worth noting that the headset has received a permanent price reduction, this Prime-specific deal is still a frankly silly price, offering a truly value-busting way into VR gaming.

Also, remember you can sign up for a free trial of Amazon Prime (with the intention of not letting it run on) to take advantage of this and other deals besides.

In case you were wondering whether the Meta Quest 2 is worth it given there's a new kid on the block in the form of the Quest 3, well, we can categorically advise you that, yes, the Quest 2 is still a great purchase right now. 

It's a superb bit of VR gaming and experience kit, and there are plenty of games and apps which means you'll never be lacking for things to do, explore, or discover with it. The Quest 3's arrival has only helped the value proposition of the Quest 2 further, by driving the latter's price down - we're seeing more price cuts on it, more frequently nowadays.
