Guardian: A day after Sony's 14 August press conference at Gamescom, the company received confirmation that it had made a splash in Cologne from the unlikeliest of sources.
What it showed had gone down so well that the Japanese giant's mortal enemy, the hacker group Anonymous, tried to put a damper on the mounting goodwill by claiming to have hacked another 10m PlayStation Network accounts.
Once Sony's hugely beefed-up online security department had confirmed that those claims were false, Anonymous's churlish attempts at thunder-stealing merely added to the prevailing conviction that Sony was the most impressive player at Gamescom.
Here is an early analysis of the PlayStation Network exclusive game The Unfinished Swan based on iWaggle3D hands-on time with the demo code playable with the PlayStation Move at GamesCom 2012.
Also included in this video is an interview with Ian Dallas, Creative Director at Giant Sparrow (developers of The Unfinished Swan).

"It’s another FIFA release and you are surely asking yourself ‘what more could they possibly do.’ The current offering of FIFA 12 has such a vast array of modes, features and content that I would think it would have been a challenge to improve upon it. During my time with the team of FIFA producers at gamescom 2012, I was educated on the influences driving the innovation within FIFA 13. With a vibrant community providing constant, vocal feedback there is always more they can do. "

"During our time at gamescom 2012 we got a more in-depth look at the new PlayStation Move experience, Wonderbook: Book of Spells, which is releasing later this year. We also got a glimpse into the history behind Wonderbook’s creation, how it came about, saw some of the early prototypes, and learnt how author J.K. Rowling came to be involved with this project. "
and i still want more, i know they can do better, i want Mr Yoshida to push every sony ELITE worldwide studio to put a small team to develop new original experiences on the vita.
Enough already for the love of cake. Stop talking about bouncing back. You do realize that everyone else's E3 wasn't exactly a bed of roses either.
Was this live because I would love to see it
I hope they did well as no one else showed up to compete against them so of course they won by default. This is stupid as its just more fanboy crap. Sony did well as they showed they care about the vita and announced some downloadable games for psn and for move.
Sony was never in a bad state in the first place. All they did was show much needed love to Move, more games for Vita (the biggest hurray) as well as exclusive PSN games.
Sounds like to me more games the merrier. Don't forget Last Of Us, GoW and Beyond. I don't know what this articles talking about.
