Playstation 3[views:2612][posts:13]_____________________________ [Mar 5,2012 1:44pm - Yeti ""] i am in the market for a new system, my PS2 died, but i have heard rumors that the new PS3 is not backwards compatible. does anyone have reliable info on this? i am not going to invest in a new system if it won't play PS2 games. |

| __________________________________ [Mar 5,2012 2:05pm - arktouros ""] Off the top of me head, only the 1ST version of the PS3 is backward compatible. They took it out in later versions because they want you to buy the PS2 games (again) on the online store. It sucks. BUT lucky for you I'm looking to get rid of my modded PS2 slim, it plays any copied PS1 or PS2 game. |

Yeah, I've wasted money on some old news games at garage sales for this reason (while I could just download the PSX rom and play it on my phone for free). |
