I don't think IBM is trying to turn the zSeries into a gaming system; 
rather they are trying to take advantage of the Cell processor that they 
spent quite a bit of money developing.   In the long term we may see them 
provide a _lot_ of Cell processors in one zSeries box, with the Cell being 
microcoded to emulate zSeries instruction set, perhaps with some 
parallel-processing instructions and/or networking added.
