  1. PS3 plays PS3 games. PS2 plays PS2 games. Since PS2 cant use blu-ray its even impossible to put it in the disc and the controller will need to be sixaxis. PS3 games have more memory so there you have it.

    EDIT:

    CJG again. Why are you in the playstation section? Are you gonna act like a fanboy.


  2. you cannot play ps3 games on the ps2  but you can play ps2 games on the ps3 and use the ps3 controller to play the ps2 games. Dont listen to these other people.

  3. Yes Most ps2s can, go to the store, buy a PS3 game and play it on your ps2!

    I WAS BEING SARCASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  4. yea all the PS systems so far can play the former systems games.

  5. What would be the point of having a ps3 if you could play the games on a ps2. Sony wouldn't be that dumb.

    And also since ps3 games are blu-ray its the say thing as a blu-ray disk being played on a DVD player. Not possible.

  6. "Since PS2 cant use blu-ray"  xcuze me? then what format is pto4 and topgun combat zones?

  7. No, you cant. The PS3's games are so high in technology that the PS2 cant play them. Just like someone else said, its just like asking if you can play a DVD with a CD player. It just wont work.  

  8. No, you can not play PS3 games on a PS2. Unfortunately, you have to upgrade to a PS3 to play PS3 games.

    People - read the actual question.  

  9. what, so you're telling me the PS2 isn't forward compatible?  what a rip-off.

  10. I'm assuming you're asking this as some sort of joke? There's no way anybody even a complete and utter technophobe wouldn't realise that PS2's would be unable to play PS3's games.  

  11. I don't know why people are being abusive.  As the old saw goes:  There are no dumb questions.  Only dumb answers".  Calling somebody dumb doesn't make one a reincarnation of Einstein.

    Anyway, to your question:  PS2 games will not work on PS3.  In case you're wondering about some mods to PS2:  Nope.  There are no mods, at least that I'm aware of.  Totally different disk formats and different instructions.

    -- Edit:  Sorry.  Meant PS3 games will not work on PS2

  12. no you can't play ps3 games on ps2 but i wish you could because it will be alot cheaper


  13. Lol No =P

  14. no but if i was you i wouldn't worry about that i would worry about that new brain you need
