So I have a 60GB launch system, played the new Twisted Metal, and my system crashed, still works but crashes when playing TM. but after calling gamestop, I have heard that PS2 games are sucking the life from our PS3's, anyone heard of that??
i have ps3 slim 320gb.i am a middle east account user(iam from India I just live middle east).can i use my old ps2 game.please tsomeone give me an answer
I'm with the insulting pissed off man... I had to buy antoher ps2 because my ps3 doesn' t support ps2 and blah blah blah. Hell I will not buy another sony video game console. P.S. The best playstation games came to ps2, ps3=dissapointment.
Fucking bullshit.... there is no fucking reason they shouldn't put the backwards compatability in all units. I read that the PS2 was still selling about a million units a year. Fuck that. Goddamn greedy ass corporations such as sony really fucking piss me the fuck off. What is even worse is that it was put into so many of the launch systems... then they take it away. Fucking greed. Why did I have to get the 40g 2 usb port version for fathers day... I swear my wife never researched shit.
I hate my Ps3. I have 20 ps2 games and I don't know what to do with them because I sold my Ps2 before I bought the Ps3! The Slimline! Sh*t! I can't play my favorite game any more! The Great Escape!!!!
@JNadobnik omg so true - i miss my ps2 :( i got a ps3 and im bored with it its 320gb of waste i had like 50 ps2 games which i loved and now :( stuipd sony
@SimplaNaruto yeah his store looks a little different. if u still didn't find it, go to add-ons, disc-based add-ons, then look in the section marked M-L the middle section and it's there. took me awhile but i found it that way. hope that helps or hope u found it by now. :)
this is just for 60gb models so you can play final fantasy 11 and other hard drive based ps2 games.. ITS NOT TO ALLOW PS2 GAMES ON A PS3 THAT CANT PLAY PS2 GAMES!
Okay, please anyone help me! I am trying it but I don't know how to use it. Does it work for the 18 GB system model? Is it because of a specific game? Please I need help :/
hey this thing is a peace of shit. The only reason i bought the dam thing is to play ps2 games of my bros. But now it's not working on my ps3!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My ps3 is so annoying. I put a ps2 game In it and it said something like this console cannot read ps2 games. If it can't read the disc then how did it know it was a ps2 game?!?!
how do you play your downloaded games from the playstation store i purchase the game from the playstation store then downloaded it but i don't see the game.
So i just downloaded the Prince of Persia Trilogy on the playstation network, its taking a looooooong time so I may find out sooner here, Will they play on my 40gb playstation? It only occurred to me that they might not play after I purchased them
yes!!!!!!!! am playing gta sa on my ps3 i have 320 gb slim and its beutiful not a lot of bugs or lag really good you need a good system its amazing thanks.
@steven101321 nawh buddy its not how many gigs you have its the system I have the Original 1st 60gb ps3 with all the extras SD card slot and ps2 controller adapter it plays all
i have a question can the ps2 games that can go online are you still able to play the ps2 games online even though you are playing on your ps3? and do you still need your memory car or does your ps3 just save the data into your internal memory?
Hey guys i just tried this and it WORKED! And I had checked sony and mines wasnt even compatible to play ps2 games. Just search "ps2 system data" in the playstation store and thats how i found it. Because the way this guy just showed us, I couldn't find it dat way either
@699taha Backward compatibility refers to the way the newest game consoles can play previous game consoles games. Example: The PS2 Slimline can play PS1 games as well as PS2 games.
In the download description of the ps2 add on it shows what models the download supports. on the bottom of your ps3 should be the model number. This is why it doesn't work for all ps3 systems. Btw doesn't work for slim to my understanding.
@dav1dramos i have a slim ps3 only ps3 and ps1 games work ive tried all my ps2 games and the only ps1 game i have is tony hawks pro skater 2 but it works.
this video is from 2008 and PlayStation stop this update about a month of PlayStation coming out cause there were to many problems just go get a PlayStation 2
same here and i think that they should make sure that you can install the playstation 2 software and that you can buy the playstation 2 games on playstation store and it will save a lot of up in my room and you can't download every playstation 1 game that there is like wrestlemania the arcade game
@mrwiggles352 some 80gb and later models b4 the slim dont play ps2 theres a list on wikipedia of the models compatiable the model number will be on the box or a sticker on the back
Sony only think about money and ps2 games don't make money so it's a big fuck you to the fans, have fun defending the money grabbing dickheads of sony fanboys.
Yes, It's true that the ps3 originally could play both ps1 and ps2 games, but since people kept complaining about it's expensive price... sony decided to... remove the ps2 Emotion Engine and such which makes the ps3 smaller and essentially, cheaper.
Only 20,60 and 80 gigabyte ps3's have the capabilities to play ps2 games. 20 being the best out of the three for ps2 games.
All ps3's can still ps1 games so it isn't too horrible. You can either download pcsx2 on your pc or but a new ps2
@beloit22 Thanks for that info!! One more question....Is it possible to procure a 20,60 or 80 gig ps3 other than e-bay? Such as going to Sony directly?
@beloit22 they only made certain models backwards compatible with ps2 and ps1 but i think all ps3s play ps1 games, atleast the ones ive played on, and the original fat ones play ps2 for sure its just the slim ones...
