Hideo Kojima Says Sony Dropped PHYSINT During a Zoom Call and Gave No Reason

In a new interview with IGN, Hideo Kojima says PlayStation ended its involvement in PHYSINT during a Zoom call in June. He says Sony gave no reason, though he also admits he didn't ask many questions during the meeting, and that Sony hasn't been in touch since. Kojima stressed the two are "not in a dispute" after roughly 30 years together, but added that he would have liked to hear the decision a little earlier. His studio then spent three months looking for a new partner before landing at Xbox, which it was already working with on OD. Apparently, the interview was conducted before Bloomberg's report on the split came out.

That report cited unnamed sources claiming PHYSINT was behind schedule and heading over budget, and that the Death Stranding games missed PlayStation's revenue expectations. Kojima Productions has since called the claims unverifiable and said it is healthy and profitable. Asked whether PHYSINT could still come to a Sony platform, Kojima said he doesn't know and that it's a question for Xbox. He added that he thought Xbox wanted to reach as many players as possible, but he wasn't sure and said more would be announced later. It looks like the game's platforms are still undecided.

Dell Introduces the Pro P 43 4K Huddle Conferencing Monitor

According to Frost & Sullivan 2024 research, around 64% of meeting rooms are huddle spaces and roughly 93% of them still lack integrated video conferencing. Your fastest-growing meeting format is also your least equipped. Most huddle rooms and small meeting spaces rely on separate cameras, speakers and displays, which means separate problems. Every room becomes a unique troubleshooting puzzle and scaling across 50 or 500 locations adds complexity, maintenance burden and inconsistency across rooms.

Today we're shipping a different answer. The Dell Pro P 43 4K Huddle Conferencing Monitor (P4326QEB) provides an all-in-one conferencing solution built for small meeting rooms and huddle spaces accommodating up to six people. It consolidates a Sony STARVIS 8MP 4K camera with 3D noise reduction, beamforming microphones, front-firing speakers and USB-C connectivity into a single 43-inch 4K display. One device replaces the entire stack and one USB-C cable runs the full meeting. Zoom Rooms certified, out of the box. For IT teams and facilities managers, this means fewer variables, faster rollouts and a more consistent experience across every huddle room you manage.

Logitech Sight AI Camera Makes Hybrid Work Meetings More Equitable for Remote Participants

Today, Logitech announced Logitech Sight, an AI-powered tabletop camera that works with the front-of-room camera Rally Bar or Rally Bar Mini to intelligently capture the best perspective of meeting participants and track conversations as they move around the conference room. In today's hybrid work landscape in which 43% of remote employees report not feeling included, Logitech Sight helps solve the disparity between hybrid teams by giving remote workers an "at the table" experience when meeting with in-office colleagues.

"We're no longer all at home in equal-sized video boxes like we were during the height of the pandemic. In a hybrid work world, a mix of in-office and remote workers increases the challenge of delivering equitable experiences to everyone," said Scott Wharton, general manager of Logitech Video Collaboration. "Logitech Sight, when used with Rally Bar or Rally Bar Mini, uses AI to tackle this problem with a model that is less Silicon Valley and more Hollywood—the art of using multiple camera angles and intelligent direction to bring remote participants off the sidelines and into the room. Our customers have told us that this is one of the biggest hybrid work problems to solve to make 'return to the office' work better for teams. We believe, based on years of research and early customer feedback, that we've cracked the code on this must-win critical problem for organizations of all sizes."

Both make it easier for IT managers to equip their organizations' remote and hybrid workforces in an environmentally sustainable way.

"Many remote and hybrid workers are still underequipped and grappling with pre-pandemic era solutions," said Scott Wharton, general manager of Logitech Video Collaboration. "Our innovative new genre of Brio webcams and Zone Vibe headphones answer the call of modern workers who need business-grade quality, style, and affordability for work and play. Transformational features like Brio's Show Mode open up new sharing opportunities for teachers, designers, and architects to easily present physical objects, notes, and sketches remotely over video."
