For me Xbox was the best console of last gen. Xbox Live was outrageously awesome and based on that fact alone wins the "console war" of last gen. Not to mention, it had all the games I wanted to play: Halo 1 and 2, KOTOR I and II, Splinter Cell series (the ones that came out on the PS2 were a joke), Morrowind, Jade Empire, Forza Motorsport, Project Gotham Racing 1 and 2, Doom 3, Half-Life 2, Amped 1 and 2, Pariah, Fable, Rallisport Challenge 1 and 2, Rainbow Six 3 and Black Arrow, Deus Ex Invisible War, Ninja Gaiden, and probably a few others that aren't in my game collection. The only things in my collection for Xbox are exclusives, games that also came out on PC, or games that came out on a significantly later date on other consoles.
I bought a PS2 for two reasons: Ace Combat and Amplitude. I used my brother's Wii for two reasons: Rogue Squadron and Resident Evil 4.
Nothing could compare to the original Xbox for me. My friends and I all brought our Xboxes over to a friend's basement every weekend and had the longest 16 player Halo games. Honestly, those are some of my favorite memories from that time. A PS2 or Gamecube couldn't have provided that experience or those memories for me. Xbox FTW
