FWIW, the Xbox 360 chip was based on the processor developed for the PS3. No mention of F-35 here. “These cores are slightly modified versions of the PPE in the Cell processor used on the PlayStation 3” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenon_(processor) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenon_(processor)
