If you have one of the original 'fat' PS3 models (20GB, 60GB, or some 80GB), you're in luck! They support hardware-based backward compatibility with a large majority of PS2 games. Grab your old PS2 discs and enjoy classics like 'Final Fantasy X,' 'Shadow of the Colossus,' and 'Gran Turismo 4'!
Most of the later PS3 models don't support backward compatibility for PS2 games. You might need to look into the PlayStation Store for digital versions or use PlayStation Now for streaming select PS2 titles.
Speaking from experience, the original 60GB PS3 I have still runs my old 'Kingdom Hearts' and 'Metal Gear Solid 3' discs like a charm. Definitely worth it if you鈥檙e a PS2 fan!
