Nvidia just making this seem as if they had a choice in the matter. Personally i don't think they were even approached.
Sony and MS would have both been fools to not go with an APU solution. It just makes complete sense from a technical point of view.
And since the desire would have been an APU...AMD is looking like the only company at the moment to offer a high end APU with sufficient gpu horsepower. I'm still amazed that they managed to fit that many GCN cores into an APU solution
