I only have a few that I want to keep playing, for example the RE, GoW, DMC, and MGS games. But i heard ps2 games look horrible on the ps3, so should I keep my ps2 or sell it and put the money towards a ps3?

They certainly won't scale well to HDTVs because of their low resolution usage. Do what my friends do, keep the older systems on old CRTs and the newer systems on the HDTV set.

Hahaha, PS2 games look way better on the PS3. The PS3 uses a smoothing utility which makes the games look nicer and better. Keep your games as they will soon be able to catch a lot of money on Ebay and whatnot.

So far every PS2 game I have played on my PS3 looks very good compared to how they looked on the PS2. Some games I can see clearly things that there was no way I could see them on the PS2 even with component cables on a HDTV (many times I can see targets spawning in the distance).

This was an old issue where the PS2 titles weren't upscaled, so they looked like absolute trash on the PS3. However, there was a firmware update that fixed this, and now the majority of PS2 titles will run and look fine.

That's the truth because before 1.7 or 1.8 firmware update (if I remember correctly) the PS2 games really didn't look good at all on the PS3 and it didn't support as many PS2 games (even the 60 gig had problems with some of there games). Then 1.9 really added more depth to the graphics of these games on the PS3.
