I quite like them as well.
Clive Owen made a great cameo too. ^^
Though I'm not sure how I'd rank them. /:

2, 1, 3. I thought they were some of the best movies I've ever seen. They are still some of my favorites. The game was surprisingly good too.
This series is one of the few I prefer on the screen than in print. I was never much of a fan of Ludlum's writing style, so the books were rather tedious to me. But the films are brilliant. Damon brings a subtly to his character we don't often see in spy films. And the action is brutal and relatively realistic (for an action movie, that is). I don't know if I could pick a favorite. Probably the second, as it's the darkest of the three and really resonates with me, but I enjoyed them all thoroughly.
I love those movies.
The first one has that embassy scene, so it ranks very highly in my books.
Amazing that such good movies could come out of such laughably bad books. Trashy airport fiction, for the most part.
The Desh fight scene in the Ultimatum is possibly the most intense fight scene I've ever seen - and I've seen a lot of movies! Beautifully choreographed for maximum brutality.

Extreme Ways was used as the end credits song for all three movies - it was intentional that they would use it each time. Moby did a special remix of it for the third movie, however. (Much better than the original version, I'd say.)Nazulu said:

I loved the films, the action was faced paced and brutal, the way it should be 
I prefer them to the James Bond films, and its pretty obvious the newest Bond films got the inspiration for their combat scenes right out of the Bourne films. I think I love the 1st and 3rd films equally, but the 2nd one whilst still awesome, was not quite as fantastic as the other 2.
I've never read the books and I don't intend to; the films were brilliant, but I've heard the books are fairly average.

I like them a lot actually, they're up there in my list of most awesome movies ever close to (though not as high as) Lord of the Rings and Sin City.
As for the order, I'd have to go with 1, 3, 2, actually. The reason 1 is better than 2 and 3 is because after movie 1 the director changed and the new one decided that shaky cameras during action scenes would be awesome while it in fact ruins entire scenes.

I loved them, they are in my top ten list of all films. The action, the story, the acting, was all amazing.
I haven't seen them in a few weeks, so I can't say which one is the best, or which order they are better in, and I don't have any questions about it, seemed a bit straight forward after the billionth time watching them.

3,2,1 I loved the movies, the books were kinda messy and weirdly structured which made them harder to understand and get into, i thought Matt Damon played his role very well and the mix of a pretty good story and some brutal action scenes made for a damn good trilogy, now to wait and see what's in store for the fourth one.
IMO the Bourne films are batter than Jame Bond because unlike Jame Bond the Bourne films don't have gadgets like a laser watch, car that can invisible etc. The Bourne films keep everything in todays realm of technology.
As for the movies I would rank them as 1, 3, 2. Although 2 has the "That should be easy, she's standing right next to you moment".

I loved them too. I have the trilogy on DVD. Great movies. A big part of the reason I'm excited for Alpha Protocol.
