I guess it depends on how tightly Meta Control what gets released on quest also does quest run steam games ?
For them to port to quest 3 there would have to be a quest 3 version of Half life 2
From the Devs :
"While the Quest 2 hardware might be powerful enough to run HL2VR, there is no legally available Android port of the Source engine that would be required to make it run on the headset directly.
Valve has refused to give their consent and support on this front, so the team will not be pursuing any standalone release."

too bad Valve put a veto on it, they had successfully ported HL1 though

I always like RoadtoVR's coverage of stuff.
This article goes over Karl Guttag's work on why the Vision Pro look better than the Quest 3. It's not about the megapixels.

Quest 3 Has Higher Effective Resolution, So Why Does Everyone Think Vision Pro Looks Best?
Take a look around the web at reviews of Vision Pro and you’ll find that practically everyone agrees: Vision Pro’s display is excellent. Words like “crisp,” “smooth,” and “4K,” are commonly used when people are talking about the headset’s visuals. But what if I told you Apple’s headset actually...

I bought Journey to Foundation for PC when it released about a month ago. I was pretty excited to try a VR game based on the book, and any new VR game with lots of story and characters. The game plays like a basic form of Mass Effect. First person action, a bunch of characters, and lots of conversations for you to learn about the universe and influence characters and events. Visually it's alright but it's clearly built for Quest 2. The game areas are compact and the texturing has that circa 2012 look. The voice acting is very high quality however. I immediately recognized one of them as Vagabond from Wing Commander 3/4 and from The Expanse, and more. 
I've considered it but it sounds very low effort. It's one of those ports from the time when a few big publishers tested the VR waters.
I did try Borderlands 3 with vorpx and it was ok
Borderlands 2 vr is £15.99 while the normal version is £3, if it ever matches price with the normal version i'll grab it
Just read the reviews on steam and they are scathing makes me wonder if the normal version with vorpx might be better

Pirates VR: Jolly Roger on Steam
Pirates VR Jolly Roger is a game alluding to old stories of the all-time most famous Pirates. The journey into the pirate world begins on a deserted island. Despite its extraordinary charm, the land hides a number of secrets and mysteries to be solved as well as obstacles and traps.
This is a solid demo! It has some personality, it's pretty, the controls work, and etc! I'm looking forward to the final game.

It really needs some mods to make it work better. For one, it stutters without a mod.
The Nexus has a category for mods for it. The most important mod is probably FRIK.

Bethesda didn't include any of the FO4 DLC with it, but you can download the DLC from the standard FO4 and integrate it with FO4 VR with some effort and mods.
