RegulatoR: Could you give a few examples of games you really enjoy? Then I can give a more appropriate recommendation.
However, based solely on "action/rpg," I'd have to say X-Box is your best choice. Look into Knoghts of the Old Republic and the Splinter Cell games. KotOR is just about the best RPG I've ever played, and Splinter Cell is just so BADASS it makes me want to cry. In a manly, I-like-sneaking-up-behind-people-and-strangling-them sort of way.
Of course, each system has its own games in those genres that are very good (look at Final Fantasy games, exclusive to PS2, or the Zelda games, only for GameCube), it's just a matter of what *kind* of those games you like the best.
And how much money you want to spend. I personally recommend GameCube for everyone, first because I think Nintendo games are the most fun to just pick up and play, but also because of its price. You can pick up a GC for half the price of the other consoles, and the same goes for games and accessories. Just a consideration.
