Sony Denies Rumor That PS4 Will Have Intel Chip (INTC)

flux_capacitor.jpgMore PS4 Rumors: The last we heard was that Sony's (SNE) next-generation gaming console would target casual gamers.

If that's true, it's a nice win for Intel (and a slap for Nvidia (NVDA), whose chips the Larrabee would replace).

Sony reps have already moved to squash the story, however, calling the Inquirer's report "quite possibly the best work of fiction I've read since Lord of the Rings."
