Sorry, melee - I have to side with the anti-console crowd here. I admit, I've been biased toward PC's for a long time - the last console I had was an original Nintendo back in 1988...

However, A good friend of mine brought his X-box over the other night, and we plugged it in. I'll give the X-box the graphics edge; however, I found myself sitting on the edge of the coffee table to see better what was going on (We were playing NFS:U). I also purely and unobjectively hate game controllers like that; for my pc, I have the kb/mouse combo for shooters, a joystick for flying, and a wheel/pedal set for racing. I personally find that, out of the box and unmodded, a PC just has much greater versatility and range.
