Cool, you can play your PS2 games on your PS3 because you decided to spend more on your PS3 then I spent on my PS3 plus a PS2.

Ragonda, your comment is so idiotic I can’t even break it down. GTFO.

hahaha all you people talking about backwards compatibility for the ps3… Erm Hate To Rub it In But I Have Already Got It … 60GB PS3 Model (Launch Model) has the backwards compatibility… But Cause So Many Arseholes Complained about the price of the PS3 They had to get rid of some stuff (including memory card slots)… that what you all get for moaning… If Nobody Moaned Then You Might Of Still Had Backwards Compatibility and memory card readers

I own an 80gb PS3 and would LOVE a backward compatibility firmware update. I’m tired of having my PS2 hooked up to my TV, but I still enjoy the games and even still buy some, because there were so many good ones, I haven’t had a chance to play them all. Sure, I love my PS3, but I really wish it had back compat so I could put the PS2 in the collection closet next to my original xbox and gamecube. I’ll never sell them, but at least I don’t have to have 30 consoles hooked up to my TV to enjoy them all.

I don’t like the idea of downloadable PS2 games – 40GB hard drives aren’t sufficient, considering DVD’s (when dual-layered) have a capacity of something like 9GB – that means that I could have 4 games, with maybe one installed PS3 game. Seriously – doesn’t appeal. Backwards compatibility with discs, well that’s a completely different story. That, my friends, would be awesome. Especially if they allowed you to play online with the classics like Time Splitters: Future Perfect and Star Wars Battlefront 2!

@rob
I did the exact same thing: I bought a slim and a discount original PS2 just to put in a box.

You can also emulate PS2 on PC now (!), and play your legit hard copies through your disc drive.

So if we get a ps2 emulator for the PS3 we can run all ps2 discs as normal?

@ ichigo, ps2 releases on the psn store will still require backwards compatibility. There are no conversions or anything done to the downloadable games to make them run on ps3, they are basically just ISO’s of the original game… no different than the discs.

actually i was just thinking – if they can release a ps1 classics on psn store why cant they release ps2 classics on ps2 store – this is an alternative to backwards compatibility if we dont get it
