Sony Unveils Slew of New PlayStation Titles

"A lot of enthusiasts are looking forward to the PS4 VR, so it should be a hit during the holiday season," noted Brett L. Sappington, director of research at Parks Associates.

Sony's VR offering also has the potential to bring some PC gamers back into the fold.

"The console market has started losing out to computer-based game play. Computer games are on the ascendance and console sales have been flagging," Sappington told TechNewsWorld.

"PC-based VR takes a real beefy computer so there's a good chance the console will take the early lead in the VR world," he said.
