> Only a select few games are able to use more than 6 cores...

Funny, its not many years ago people said games can use just 1 core, then 2 cores, 4... and now 6. Isn't it likely this progression will continue?

Work-stealing queue design in games can use as many cores as you can throw at it (at least until memory bottleneck).
