Xbox was better than Dreamcast just based on controller alone.

Xbox hands down. Gamecube was never good.

>I really wonder how good a ps3-type of console made by sega could be
Sega was all about fantastic and often quirky arcade games. With the arcade scene all but extinct by 2005-2006 they would've became a niche hardware company if they had the money to live into the 7th gen.
Maybe they would've released the 7th gen's equivalent of the Neo Geo AES. Or they could've put out the Jappy equivalent of the Xbox 360 with its robust online capabilities and HD gameplay. The world will never know.

For its time it was awesome because of online play but microsoft hardware is crud. Ours shat the bed, my brother got a 360 (which got the RROD less than a year in), and he sold all the Xbox games except JSRF. Still have the hardware but I have no urge to dive into the library today.

I would say the greatest retro console you can own is the PS2 due to its incredible library, the slim's longevity, tried-and-true controller, and backwards compatibility with the PS1.
That being said Xbox and Gamecube don't even feel retro to me and I'm only 25. The top Xbox games look like early PS3 titles and Gamecube's graphics were good enough to slap on motion controls and sell 100 million more units during 7th gen.
