Hey,

I have a 160gb PS3, and I was just wondering, I have heard that they play some PS2 games, is this true?

-Thanks

This is not true. Neither the 80gb, or 160gb have any BC capabilities. The 80gb PS3s that shipped in the MGS4 bundles were the last ones to have BC. All PS3s do play PSone games though.

You mean PS2 games to download, or a firmware to allow it to play PS2 games? The latter is actually pretty much impossible, as it requires something from the hardware as opposed to software :(

Yeah, it would require an incredibly large emulator released by Sony, which doesn't seem practical at this point as they're trying to cut out BC completely. PS2 games on the PSN store would be sweet. I wouldn't mind picking up a lot of the titles I missed out on via download. :)
