lol i thought it was some indie shit from the thumbnail

Basically everything. Xenon was a better CPU except for extremely rare corner cases.

Nothing went wrong.
Now that ibm went to shit we can use x86/x64 across all systems.

it's a stream processor not a general purpose processor. they also had production problems that plagued the device for ages.

Is it true that its more powerful than most intel CPUs?

>What went wrong
programming for it is obtuse as hell

>rare corner cases
i.e. the best games of the generation

It was designed to be used in large scale parallel for the purpose of supercomputing, not for just one of them to sit in a video game console alone. Sony's delusion that the Cell would be so ubiquitous and in every home appliance and electronic that everyone would have a "Cell supercomputer" in their home was utter insanity.

The strongest individual processor to exist.
