1. Can the UK PS3 play PS1+2 games? 2. Is the UK PS3 region free? So i could buy an american PS3 game and it will work fine here in the UK?

1- Yes but its a software emulation like the Xbox 360 so you will have to check at the website if your game is compatible.

2- Yes.

1. It plays almost all ps1 games and roughly 88% of ps2 games.

2. Playstation 3 games are region free. But dvds, bluray, ps1 and ps2 games are region locked.

1) It can play about 72% of the entire ps2 library, or about 1200 games, and I think pretty much 100% of the ps1 library. You can go the ps3 section of the uk playstation website to check the backwards compatiblity of your ps2 titles.

2) Yes, I believe the games are so far region free, so you sohuld be able to run it fine.
