I went to E3 and i think the XBox is going to do very well. Very impressive hardware!!! However, no matter how powerful the hardware, it doesn't mean crap if you don't have the software to back it up. (This also applies to the GE Force 3.) PS 2 looks really good with Final Fantasy X, Metal Gear Solid 2, Gran Turismo 3 and Silent Hill 2. Don't count X-Box out since it also has a solid lineup with Halo and other great titles. I jus think playstation 2 has a slight edge for now.
