More tesselation heavy games in the near future 2010 and beyond will utilize that power as long as there's hardware for it. Its like the chicken before egg scenario just like DX11 no one will make games for it if hardware doesn't exist.

The software always has to catch up. There's a few games that will also bring a 5970 or 3x GTX 285 to its knees like Arma2 and the STALKER when crank eye candy on even at 1080p resolutions. We should all welcome moar pwer!
