Welcome to the forums mISSbEE.

I don't think there are a lot of AGs for consoles but hopefully there'll be a few suggestions.

The only pure adventure games I can think of on the systems you mentioned are Escape From Monkey Island -PS2 and Shadow of Destiny also PS2. Also, Syberia 1+2 and Still Life were ported from PC to Xbox.

Now if you don't mind a bit of action in your adventure you should try out:

Indigo Prophecy
Silent Hill 2/3/4 - 2 is the best IMO
Fatal frame 1/2/3
ICO
Shenmue 2
Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the earth - closer to a FPS than adventure

There's a couple of threads about this already.

I enjoyed Glass Rose [this might not be exactly an AG game] also Shadow of Memories [this is a very old game and I dont know if it is still around], these are both on PS2, released in Australia.

As far as I know, there are none for PS3... But you can use ScummVM for PS2 and play games like Broken Sword, The Dig, etc.

thanks for all your input, guys

ScummVM?? i'm sorry i dont know what that means...?

It is an emulator for certain adventure games http://scummvm.org/

It emulates the engine of those games and allows you to play them on lots of different platforms. Like for example PS2. These games are a little bit older, but for someone who likes adventure games, there is nothing better. Except maybe DOSBox (which is not for PS2).
