Setup 2, it is the best mix of them. There is no searching into multiple sub-forums just to get to the most relevant sections.
Setup 1 has too many sub-divisions and sub-forums for individual game types isn't really necessary until you have enough threads to justify it.
Setup 3 is giving preference to older consoles such as the PS2, and the more recent consoles are hidden away in a sub-forum, this should be the other way round, as in setup 2.
So, overall I would pick setup 2 as the starting point and then add further necessary sub-forums to the more densely populated forums as you gain more posts.
