You shouldn't pick colleges because of the companies that recruit there. If you are accepted to a college who has "top" engineering companies recruiting on campus, how do you know if you'll stick with engineering? Most college students change their major at least once. Even if you do stick with engineering, will you even want to apply to Sony four years from now? If you do feel like applying, will you be granted an interview? Will you get the job? "I would like" is a good for dreams and ideals, but reality doesn't always match such dreams.

In other words, pick an engineering school that will help you develop a passion for the profession. That way, when you graduate, you won't have wasted your time on a degree leading to a profession you won't want to be involved in.
