I'd go for PS1 since back in them days graphics didn't matter much and there was a time when the console was never online so there were no 10yr olds shouting profanity down mics and no hackers and noobs of the sort.

all the ps1 had were square soft titles and symphony of the night. i wouldn't really call that an excellent console. but ps2 was absolutely ridiculous with the sheer variety and quality of titles it had. if i start giving examples, i will never stop.

so to recap:
1:2
2:3
3:1

maybe this order will change when uncharted 3 comes out and becomes mankind's greatest accomplishment to date.

I'd have to say PS2.
It gave us ICO, the Kingdom Hearts series, the Persona series, Psychonauts, Silent Hill 2 and 3.

I started with the PS1 and each as served me quite well but I'd have to go with the PS2.

I don't blame the PS3 for its larger amount of lower quality games. I believe the PS2 had such great games because its graphical limit was achieved quickly and developers could focus on gameplay rather than being graphics whores.
The PS2 was interesting in terms of Hardware. For a while, you could get a Linux set from Sony which exposed all of the Hardware to the programmer. This made optimizations so much easier to discover, the PS2 had graphical effects the Xbox didn't have, even though it had better hardware.

Sony took away that edge for the PS3.

even though I own none I would prefer the PS2, it,s the most free system (IE not locked down by sony in a futile effort to stop piracy) and can both play PS1 AND PS2! its also one of the best selling consoles (if I remember correctly they sold well over a million consoles a while ago)
sadly it pretty much murdered the Dream Cast
