i think i'm getting a PS3 tomorrow, and i might trade in my PS2 to get some credit @ EB Games. i've heard mixed opinions, but:

does the PS3 have a slot for PS2 memory cards?

i want to get my hands ona 60GB model because of the Emotion Engine but if you can play your PS2 games but not have ur PS2 memory card, that kinda defeats the purpose.

i've also heard that you may be able to get an adaptor, something that connects your memory card to a USB port. anybody know?

No, you have to buy an adapter for around $15 to transfer data from your own memory cards, but the PS3 has what is called, Internal Memory Cards, for PS2 and PS1 games, so if you start a new game, you can set up an internal memory card and it will save on the HDD.

You can get a card reader that will allow you to use your memory cards from the PS1 and PS2. I have one and I have never really use it because after the 1.8 firmware update the games look so good that it's nice to just start over with these games.

Do some of your own research instead of trying to get quick answers. Obviously you've been to EB, ask them!

Yeah! If only there was some sort of place to ask people who own the console.A public forum if you will.

Seriously, this is why the forums exist. So people can look for help. I have no idea why people miss this. This is doing research!
