Welcome to the forum! All three have the same meaning, but they can be more or less formal. I would order them as most to least formal: 2, 1, 3.

Another usage:
"It cracked me up"
Is that any different? Where would you put it on your list?

Less formal, perhaps before 3. Cracked-up is somewhat slangy, "It made me laugh" would be a more formal way to say it.
