Never owned a game machine before, which of the above is my best bet?
Does it depend what sort of games I like (only really played games on PC) or are there other things I should consider?
Thanks

Mainly down to the type of games you like to play.
you can mod the Xbox pretty easily so it can do a whole host of extra things (do a search on here cause it's been discussed before). Both consoles have their own killer games.

Getting an xbox for chrimbo.
For me the choice was down to PS2 - use old PS1 games vs XBox - Mod and use as MP3/DivX player.
I expect to use the Xbox for more non-gaming things than games.

The next 6-8 months will see some big titles out for Xbox
Halflife 2 ??
Halo 2
Doom
to name but three, there have just been a raft of good games in the run up to chrimbo and with Live games getting better all the time (ps2 network play ??? Beta STILL) I think it's just a matter of time before the main player in the UK will be Xbox. Don't get me wrong I own all three of this generation's consoles and there are games on all machines that are stand out must have's.
But the Xbox will win in the end
Better Res, Killer games in the next 6 months , Live geting better and better and chipp it and it's Fantastic.

Biggest gripe with xbox over ps2 is it's uncomfortable controllers. Gives me cramp v quickly.
Is probably cos I've got mutant hands though
Having had both, and given the choice again, I wouldn't buy a ps2 over an xbox.
