How can I play my PS1 games on my PS2?

Question

I have followed previous advice like inserting the ps1 disc in, using ps1 memory card. But after my PS2 console has read my ps1 disc, I click on it (in the browser page) and the screen goes black for a while but returns to the browser page, as if nothing happened.

The games I've tried are : Digimon 3, Beyblade, Final Fantasy 7,8,9. All did not work.

I am using a modified PS2 player, supposedly to work with ps 1 games. Can someone help?

Answer 1

now a  day alot of the ps1 games are not compatible with the ps2 any more cause they are so old in out of date sorry but that's just the way it is :) ava

Answer 2

I don't know why, but it is very wierd because my cousin cannot play ps1 games in ps2 also.. He is using the traveler edition. But one of my friends use the normal older ps2 and can play ps1 games. Maybe it's the ps2 version or bios version

Answer 3

shux they shud wrk maybe the games hav scratches i have the didgimon 3 and it wrks but idk i have the older ps2 tho

Answer 4

Maybe the disc is dirty or the modified PS2 can't read PS1 games. Try getting a normal PS2 that isn't modified like a PS2 slim.

If you are using software, Buy a REAL PS2... If you HAVE a real PS2, try cleaning the disk! If the disk does not 'load', contact Sony! Hope this helps!
