XBOX: I am sold!
I just got my XBox an enjoy it a lot! The controllers are really nice. I even bought PS2 games before I got the XBOX but I changed my mind about getting a PS2 after I played my nephews PS2. Both systems are nice, but the controllers (and ethernet) put the XBOX over the edge for me...
I have a copy of Madden 2002 for the PS2 - Unopened and new... willing to trade for XBOX games... I have Madden, NHL and Azurik so far....

IMO, you should have gotten the PS2. Right now I could easily name 20 GREAT games for it, and only name 3 for the X-Box. One more is coming on the 26th (RAW), but after that, there's a pretty big lull. It'll be about a year before either new system really starts moving (as has been for pretty much every other launch). I hope you enjoy it, though!

Yes, there are only 32 games for the Launch of the XBOX with 18 more to come... but I would say my interests are open to 8 of the current games and 4 of the ones announced....
Nightcaster
WWF: Raw Is War
NFL Blitz 2002
The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind
Then the games after March...
Crazy Taxi Next
Grand Theft Auto 3
House of the Dead 3
Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon
Spy Hunter
Warcaster
Legion: Legend of Excaliber
Metal Gear Solid X
Reign of Fire
Ultimate Blade of Darkness
Warhammer
Spider-Man: The Movie
So, I would say it is okay, as was mentioned, Halo, Azurik and other RPGs will take up so much time, I won't notice until the next release!
Then I will get other games on want on eGay or half.com for much much cheaper than $50 each! 
PS2 is good, sure, it has been around a year longer. But as I stated, the built in Hard Drive, Ethernet and the larger Controllers really put it over the top for me. Sure, buying an add-on for the DVD player is major wack...but whaddya gonna do...

Yeah, but you should also check out some of the some games at www.gamespot.com for the XBox.
Hunter: The Reckoning (March 15, 2001)
New Legends (This game will rock. Looks better than Shenmue)
