Yup, I picked up a few wishlisted items for like 65% off
I meant a sale event. There are always a bunch of games on sale at any given time, but I thought there was supposed to be a big event this week. That was one of the main reasons people predicted the reveal of the Frame was going to be yesterday.
Yeah, I don't see an official sale event listed, but when I when I went looking for VR games on Steam over the last couple of days, most of them were 50% off. I saw a mention of this going until September 21st, but I'm not sure if that was just one game or publisher.
Tbh, I'm not going to buy any VR games until I have a headset in hand. I wishlisted a bunch of VR games last night in preparation, but I'm not going to screw myself out of (at minimum) half of the refund window in case any are duds. Especially when the order queue starts off as a lottery.
This is good logic 🫡
