Your thoughts?

I really liked the section of the video titled "CPU" 'cause it actually explained everything well and used sketch-noting or whatever you call it (I'm referring to the graphs here).

Doesn’t PS2 use a PowerPC architecture?

No, it uses a custom architecture around a custom CPU, the "Emotion Engine", a MIPS-based CPU. You must be thinking of the Wii or XBox360 that came after it.

You’re right! I wonder if there’s a reason beyond costs.
