Summary

The White House has pulled its controversial browser game "Build the Wall" from arcade.gov after The Tetris Company publicly issued a copyright warning over unauthorized IP use and block-stacking mechanics. Meanwhile, in a major industry shakeup, Sony's PlayStation Studios abruptly stepped away from publishing Hideo Kojima's next-generation action-espionage title Physint over budgetary concerns, allowing Microsoft's Xbox to swoop in, rescue the project, and secure the publishing rights alongside film and television adaptations.
