Personally, I used to be most comfortable to see Sony affirm that there are greater than 100 video games in growth for the platform. The headset may have a powerful launch window lineup that features video games like Tetris Impact, Rez Infinite, and, after a free replace out there on launch day, Gran Turismo 7, however now we all know for sure that there might be a variety of video games to stay up for down the road.
