The only games that I think are better-suited for consoles are racing
games, sports games, and fighting games. Strategy games (both real-time
and turn-based) and first person shooters suck on consoles (although for
some reason, people seem to enjoy Halo on Xbox - I personally wanted to
throw the controller at the screen because it was so awkward to
control). RPGs and adventure games seem to be well-suited to either
type of system.

A-friggin-men! Halo, or any FPS on a console, is worthless. No
matter what is done to consoles (aside from morphing them into a PC),
there will always be games that are better suited to an environment
that has one or more of the following:
1) A keyboard for chatting and/or massive key bindings (WoW)
2) A mouse
3) A beefy processor and GPU.
4) Large secondary storage
5) High speed Internet
Like Greg said, RTS, FPS and many other games are just cruel to play
on a console. PC gaming will live on for many hours into the future
(it doesn't hurt to be conservative).
