Hi
I brought a PS3 today, but not brought a game yet, (ran out off money :() anyway i was wondering how you play ps2 games on there, I have updated the ps3 to Version 2.0, Also i know there are only a certain amount off ps2 games you can play.

So anyone could tell me how to play ps2 games on a ps3, also a list off ps2 games that you can play would be great.

Thanks.

I have used google but not found anything to help me. I have asked my irl mate and he said just put the disk in and it will work, But i done all my ps2 games and keep getting same thing.

But my brother said, You need to install something on to it, But no idea what..

why use google when there's lomcn?

because lomcn is fail. (sarcasm)

edit: i searched google for abit, and found thatmost websites said either the PS3 cannot play PS2, PSOne games or it will play very few.

Simple answer - 60gb ps3 supports ps2 games, anything less than the 60gb model doesn't.
