For a start, the Cell CPU is a hell of a complicated thing to program for: A central "clever" unit, and seven almost dumb units around it, with their own bandwidth problems...
If the Team was fed with zillion euros to make a port, it would still be a nightmare, in my opinion. Not to mention there's no documentation, and the manufacturer has a record of actively shutting down every attempt at it.
The CELL processor looks almost tailor made for weird scientific calculations. I was very surprised it got to a games console.
