First of all, go with the PS3. Also, you don't need a HDTV with a HDMI connection to play a PS3, I'm telling you this because I've noticed that a lot of people think that you have to have a HDTV just to play a PS3 and that is not true.
The PS3 is going to have way better exclusive games and with the PS3 at least you wont have to worry about the Red Ring of Death and you most likely will have to end up sending the 360 back to Microsoft.

I was exactly in your spot last month and I was thinking between the two: Xbox 360 or Playstation 3. I bought the Playstation 3 because like you I had a heck of a lot of games on PS1 and PS2 and I did not really want to sell them. The graphics on the PS3 is about a million times better than the PS2 and you will definitely notice a difference. If you get a PS3 get the 60 GB because it has a better backwards compatibility and it is cheaper. I think the games on PS3 are limited, but it should get better with time.

Almost a third of XBOX 360 are malfunctioning right from the start. PS3 return rate is only 0.3%.
Let's compare them
PS3 has 8 kernels in Cell processor, Xbox 360 -only 3x2
PS3 uses advanced tech called Blu-Ray, one disc can store up to 50 gb (in the future - up to 200 gb), Xbox 360 - regular DVD (4.7 gb).
Calculations per sec - PS3 - 51-billion-dot-product-operati... per second
Xbox 360 - 33.6-billion-dot-product-opera... per second
PS3 has full media support - USBs, built-in card reader (except 20 gb version), ability to use printer and so on.
Xbox 360 has USBs and only 2 memory slots.
PS3 supports up to 7 Bluetooth Controllers
Xbox 360 - up to 4 Controllers
PS3 - wi-fi included (except 20 gb version)
Xbox 360 - wi-fi will cost you around 130 $
Xbox 360 is widely known for so-called "red ring of doom" problem - it gets overheated easily. My PS3 was running for more than 8 hours non-stop with no problems. Sometimes Xbox 360 becomes so overheated, that thermopaste on CPU melts, drips on motherboard and successfully shortcircuits it.
Besides all of this, I've seen disassembled Xbox 360 - regular PC architecture - Billy Gates is a uninventive nerd (as usual).
When I saw disassembled PS3 - it was a surprise - smart architecture, good cooling (don't buy external PS3 coolers - they make everything worse - original system is good), etc.
In 2008 we'll get more than 300 games.
In some countries people call Xbox 360 "Coffin 360".

If you already have the ps2, go with the ps3. Both consoles force you to shell out a lot of dough for games. It will take a while to build up a good collection, so it's nice to be able to play your old games too. Happy gaming =).

Go for the PS3 because you can play most PS2 games on the PS3.

Well since you already have ps2 and the games might as well go for the PS3 but if you didnt have any systems I would go for the Xbox 360 right now
