PS2 was unique. EE was the CPU, but it had two programmable vector units as MIPS coprocessors or something like that. VU0 could talk to VU1, and VU1 could talk to the GS directly.

GS might be more accurately called a rasterizer/TMU. https://www.copetti.org/writings/consoles/playstation-2/ https://www.copetti.org/writings/consoles/playstation-2/
