Sony promises a Vita show at Gamescom

Having slipped back into its bad old ways at E3, Sony is promising bigger and better things for the Vita at Gamescom in Germany, in a couple of months. The pretty obvious question at that point is will Sony find room in its PS4-heavy keynote to drop some new Vita games into the mix.

Talking to Hiphopgamer, Rey Gutierrez, Video Director for Sony, said "We blew it out of the park this E3 with PlayStation 4 but PS Vita has so much more to go, we've got so much more love to show at the showcase and I can safely say Gamescom is definitely going to be a PS Vita show, so you'll see."

Even if Sony is bringing the big guns, the handheld needs more third party support, beyond the stirling efforts of the indies. So, we'll get all hyped up again in August and wait to see what legendary games Sony has to show. Not even going to play "let's guess what'll be on show" this time, and then there's Tokyo Games Show for one last stab at Vita greatness, before it begins 2014 as a gamer's curio.
