I, for one, will mourn the loss of such exotic supercomputing architecture. Whether it's the massive clustered PS3 supercomputers that people built because of the commodity pricing/loss that Sony was willing to take or the absurdly difficult to utilize twin Hitachi CPU powered Sega Saturn, there is something very appealing (to a big nerd like me) about the sort of exotic hardware that game consoles have used in the past. No more RISCy moves from the console builders I suppose. Ho ho.
