Well since you own both and have played both, I would say keep the one YOU like most.

Why not just make a list of all the games you want to play for each system? Whichever system has more games you wanna play, keep and sell the other system.

If you like RPGs, go with the PS2, because it has many exclusive titles that will never be available on the XBox.
Otherwise, I would go with the XBox, as it has a pretty good number of solid games exclusively for the XBox. Also, the XBox versions of multi-platform games are usually a little bit better graphics-wise.
There are also a lot of things you can do with your XBox that I'm not allowed to talk about here, that you could never do with a PS2.

If you like fighting games, online gaming, or FPS then keep the Xbox.
If you like RPG's, action-adventure, or niche titles keep the PS2.

Truly what you should do. Asking us to decide for you is like trying to buy clothes for your woman. No matter how hard you try and how much you know her, shes gonna return it.

Yeah,... I'll offer up $110 shipped for the XBox.
My friend finally bougth one from a "FRIEND", and not only was it refurbished,... it also has DREs so bad, that it needs repair again.
He paid $125 for it, with 2 lame games, but he's afraid to confront his friend. So M$ wants to charge him $80 to repair it.
I told him I'd look for a new one for him.

Keep the PS2, if the Xbox is new you can still get top dollar for it.

IMO I would keep the xbox...but if the next xbox is coming out this year, you could pick up a used xbox for cheap I would imagine in the next couple of months...

If he wanted a doorstop and a paperweight I'm sure he could just use blocks of wood instead.

Try to play a friend's Xbox and see if you like it more then the PS2.

unless you play online, ditch the Xbox.
PS2 has the best fighting games (a few games online do not mean it has the best fighting games, VF4, Tekken, and almost every fighter the Xbox has minus online play). PS2 also has the best platforming games, and RPG's,
I am selling a lot of my PS2 games to get an Xbox, but only because I had almost 60 games, and the majority I would not play again (really want to downsize collection).
Plus PS2 has the most cheap games available that are really good.

Xbox Live is also a very vital factor that could effect your decision. If you have broadband and want to play online, then I would definitely keep the Xbox. Otherwise, I would keep the Xbox anyway. :D

Unless you like RPG I say ditch the PS2. All the multiplatform games are better on the Xbox then the PS2. And The Xbox is 100x better for online games. And of lately I've been finding that the Xbox has been getting alot better exclusive titles then the PS2 has, but that could change.

sell them both and give up video games forever. im not rich, but if you need 100 bucks that bad then you're in bad shape. oh yeah, i forgot the standard "get a job!!".

You can take my GameCube. I'd even give up my PS2 were it not for Rez, niche titles and the RPG's.
However over my dead body will you take my XBox and Xbox Live since I have a beautiful 3.0/768k DSL connection with which I wipe the floor with all comers. That machine is by far my favorite and most played.
I also don't care what any GT 3&4 fanboys say, PGR, PGR2, RalliSport, RalliSport 2 and the upcoming Forza Motorsport make the Xbox the premier driving game system as well.
