Killer Apps: The games that sold me on hardware
I buy a lot of game hardware ngl for usually very frivolous reasons but there's always at least SOMETHING that's only to be found on a specific platform that makes me go "welp, time to make a poor financial decision". These are those games, with their respective hardware that they sold me on. Not even a list of games that are my favorites for each system as usually I would broaden my gaming on each system, these are just the gateway drugs.
16 Games
Playstation VR2 (and by extension, the PS5 pretty much)
Playstation VR (i have no excuse)
Playstation Vita (this was before this game got ported to PC, though I did eventually come to learn how cool the vita actually was so HAH)
