I agree with the results completely, at least the ordering of the top 3
Best video game platform this decade? (Poll)
I'm amazed that PS2 is so high. Yea, it has the benefit of being around more years like the PC in a poll like this, but I'd probably put PC over PS2 personally if you're going to argue that angle.
Well. I find this a bit unfair. If you would have said "This generation". Totally cool. But in terms of the decade, the pc has been active for 2 decades vs. ps2, which has been 1. In that case I would choose the pc.
Based on games that have held my interest the longest, I said PS3 for it's couch friendliness and features. PS2 and XBOX wern't too far behind though. PS2 for the sheer selection of titles, and XBOX because well everything pretty much looked better. (also NFL2k5 had a video halftime show, and highlights)
EDIT: This also comes from a 28 year old.. who has played almost every console since I found this hidden away in a closet when I was a kid. (Twas my sister and brothers.. who are 10 and 14 years older than me)

In that case I would choose the pc.I've thought about that. My PC habits have been two PCs. I bought one in 2000 and the one I have now, basically 2005, but upgraded.
In that same time period, I had a PS2 that broke twice, payed to get it fixed, finally bought PS2 slim and had an Xbox 360 break and payed to get a new one.
PC even wins there.
The PC for me. Over the course of the previous decade I've spent more time playing PC games than console games. Between WOW, C&C:RA, UT, Diablo 2, Age of Empires, The Sims, Elder Scrolls, Dragon Age Origins and many others, the time spent just dwarfs even long sessions of various console FPS and JRPGs.
