consoles have never been about technology.  The best systems always have 
the best games.  In your situation I would only consider what kind of 
gaming environment I would want.  

I have an Xbox but it only gets pulled out when buddies come over.  NHL 
with 3 friends is alot of fun. When i'm alone I only play on the internet 
with my computer.  
Halo is a great game and has plenty of replayability, but IMHO it is no 
Half-Life and only on par with Doom or Doom2.  It's multiplayer is pretty 
sad unless your only mulitplayer experience is with 007 on the N64.
