i have a 40 gb PS3 and don't know how to play PS2 games on it, i noticed it has a PS2 internal memory card so what is the point if u can't play PS2 games due to the fact that PS3 won't recognise the disc? any help would be appreciated :confused:

The 40GB PS3 has absolutely no PS2 hardware in it so it's not backwards compatible.
The only way you'd ever see backwards compatibility on a 40GB PS3 is if they were to emulate it, which may happen eventually.
well what about copying the game code to the PS3? would that work at all?
I'm not entirely sure what you mean by that.Quote:

No matter how you load the game (off the hard drive, disc, flash drive, etc.), there's no way it's going to work because it's incompatible.
ok thanx i'm still kinda new to the PS3 and haven't been able to mess around with the workings of it too much because it didn't come with a manual and i recently got released from the army to go to school lol so i'm probably gonna spend a lot of time here or catching up on anime on youtube lol
Well, have fun learning about the PS3 and enjoy the forums. :)Quote:

I wish I did. All I have left are some PS2 games. :/Quote:
