Sony will only release it to licensed developers, so there won't be a "public" scramble at all.
Hard to know just how open they will be, they have been allot more friendly to indies in the past few years but traditionally dev kits especially pre release hardware has been exclusive to high end publishers.

Hopefully they won't make all these VR-titles exclusive for the PS4. Anyway
Most of the studios are seeing that the pc market is a good one to be in. Console games have a big second hand market that starts eroding sales after a certain saturation point. PC's versions tend not to participate in second hand markets as much. Also modding is huge and consoles are way too restrictive to allow that sort of thing, this also leads to lingering pc sales.
I don't own a latest gen system and don't plan to get one, my ps3 is a blu ray / netflix player not a gaming machine any more. I would much rather spend $400 on a medium grade pc and attach it to my home theatre and I'm not the only one.
