In a recent BBC News piece Darren Waters revealed many tidbits of joy for Sony fans. First, was some juicy details on the next Motorstorm. More importantly, though, he revealed work a super secret title within Sony that will change the face of gaming in 2009. What could the game be? Well, the one thing known is that it isn’t Killzone 2.

Still, what the mega secret title turns out to be isn’t nearly as important as what Sony has started. The first year of Sony’s console was filled with a sense of dread. The Blu-Ray format was in a brutal war and it seemed the Xbox 360 was quickly walking away with this console generation confidently in pocket. Then things began to change. A price drop for the PS3 and Blu-Ray’s winning of the HD war changed Sony’s outlook overnight.

That’s to say nothing of the game. Uncharted: Darke’s Fortune was heralded by critics and Killzone 2 showed that it wasn’t all a pipe dream. New trailers for Final Fantasy XIII and Metal Gear Solid 4 whetted gamers’ appetites for what was still to come. Now, comes this announcement. PS3 owners now have all the aforementioned titles to look forward to exclusively on their console, but also Resistance 2 and others. Suddenly there is a positive buzz about Sony again. If this all does turn out to be a clever PR plant, then it is doing exactly what Sony needed it to. If the game really is that amazing, well, the console wars just got a whole lot more interesting.
