The Playstation 2 MIPS processor uses a 32bit core, as the Playstation (1) does. btw. The MIPS processor in the Playstation (1) does not even have an MMU.
And that MIPS is still alive in the embedded area is fact, beside that ARM is far more successful.
Slashdot Mirror
Did anybody keep in mind that Toshiba is one of the backers of the CELL Processor? They just renewed and extended their Joint-Venture with Sony. They also developed a "reduced" CELL Processor called SpursEngine.
They should be working on a PS3 version, not a XBOX360 Version...
Were speaking about 64 bit here...
