It all depends what you want the console for. Very briefly (I may elaborate later):

X-Box: For Hardcore gamer or guys with out decent PC. Most powerful, but that doesn't mean good games. However, there does seem to be some quality stuff coming out

PS2: Big library, but mainly single-player

GC: Great multiplayer (with mates, not online, of course) which is even appealing to the women which means more people to play with, novel games, Nintendo titles, portable (easy to take round a friends), cheap.

If you're not planning on playing it 24/7 but are looking for something you can switch on every now and then or when you get back from the pub with mates, I really suggest the GC. If you are a big gamer and plan to use it alot and have the money to buy the games (don't forget, a large library doesn't mean much if you don't plan on owning shit loads of titles) then go for the X-Box. I'd stay clear of the PS2, not that it is shite.

I own a GC, just so you know where I stand.
