From a PlayStation perspective:

Nintendo: Dark Cloud 2 -- Really interesting world building mechanics, tons of fun mini-games, and surprisingly addicting gameplay. I recommend this, because the series was intended to be a 'Zelda killer,' but it built its own personality with charming characters and worlds. The first game is kind of mediocre, but the sequel is stellar.

XBox: The Last of Us -- A really interesting expansion on the traditional "Gears of War" formula with a brilliant story, fantastic characters, and a wonderfully deep world.

PC: Persona 4 -- With the incredible fondness shown to games like Half-Life and classic adventure games, it is apparent that PC gamers are appreciative of good storytelling, though they often dismiss JRPGs, especially anime JRPGs. Persona 4 has the best writing of any game ever made, despite being weird and Japanese.

From a PC perspective:

Nintendo: Classic adventure games like Monkey Island --They're cartoony, imaginative, and just plain fun. I think Nintendo fans would be appreciative of them.

XBox: Starcraft -- Incredibly interesting Sci-Fi lore and a highly competitive multiplayer scene makes me feel that XBox fans would love Starcraft.

PlayStation: CRPGs like Fallout 2 and Baldur's Gate -- PlayStation is a heavily RPG-focused platform. With the severe lack of CRPGs, I feel like many PlayStation gamers are missing out on a genre they could love.
