If you really want a console I would say a PS3 if you are not to bothered about the latest shinys. The library is pretty big and the games are dirt cheap now, the God of War trilogy is only £18 for example and includes an upscaled HD God of War that looks pretty good even today.
The slim console is cheap too, you cannot even get a good graphics card for that kind of money (you can get a decent one just not high end).
Earlier this gen I was all Xbox console wise (PC gamer mainly) but Sony coaxed me around. Great services like PS+ which is cheaper than XBox Live Gold and you get free games to play, 60 minute demos of the games on the PSN store and you get discounts on games and movies/TV series on the PSN store. The media is actually cheaper than the Sky store and some other on demand services too.
If you have a couple of hundred quid to spend (or Dollars and whatever else) its a great pile of entertainment for the money.
