IBM has its processors powering the Xbox 360 and the Wii and co-developed the Cell processor that is at the heart of the PS3 and they plan to continue into the next generation.
Happy birthday to the IBM PC! 39 years ago today the IBM 5150 either reinvented personal computing or ruined it depending on your point of view.
Back in February, Kotaku reported that IBM was making a real-life Sword Art Online concept, minus the real-life killing. Here’s a look at people testing the VR experience out at an event this week in Tokyo.
Aaaaaaargggghhhhh!!!!!! Curse you IBM, curse you for all eternity. This could of been the showcase of VR.
International Business Machines further layed claim that with the help of its partners it was able to design a chip that could process in real-time

"The company has a history of releasing chips every three years, which points to a Power8 chip release for 2013."
Might be pointing at a 2013 console release.
so when i said that Sony wont use the Cell in the next Playstation and all the sony fanboys disagreed, i was right?
theyll use ideas and tech from it in future processors - just like they used ideas and tech from it to make the CPU for the 360. so the Cell, as we know it, was born with the PS3 and will die with the PS3.
the perfect console is one with no set specifications - thus allowing the boundaries of graphics/cgi/immersion to be pushed to the limit.
butttt this wont happen because there is too much money involved in selling the xbox, the playstation , and the next big thing from nintendo.
