Many of the PC Gamers have said AMD is going belly up.....if so why is it that AMD "stuff" seems to be involved with even the last (rumored) game console that will arrive on the market.?

My guess is cost. I’ve seen AMD tied to Microsoft’s new console, but those are just silly rumors. I think both companies want to use PC hardware this time around to facilitate SW development. I suppose AMD would be cheaper than Intel and ATI’s graphics cores are probably better than anything Intel has to offer (that’s just speculation BTW ... I do not know for sure). More bang for fewer bucks. But, again, that’s just guessing.
Also, if the PS4 doesn’t have a true sequel to Warhawk (Starhawk was utter garbage), I hope it fails :-).
AMD sells cheaper than Intel.
People building game rigs are looking to build the fastest systems, AMD doesn’t provide that anymore.
Console builders are looking for fast enough at the lowest cost, AMD is probably a perfect fit.
