You currently cannot buy any ps2 games from the PS store. (I think thats what you meant.)

All of them?

See Above

What about ps1 games?

There is a fairly decent selection of ps1 games for you to buy online. Check this thread for the listings.

Also what regions?

See below.

Can you play all regions on the ps3?

It depends on the particular game for global online play. Still not really sure what you're asking though so that might not have answered it.

LOL a lot of questions but I been meaning to ask them for a while now :P

You can find a ton of used PS1 and PS2 games at many differant places now that work just fine on the PS3. The ones that have a online option can be played online on the PS3.

My brother has Twisted Metal: Black and I wanted to try it out on the PS3 because I never had the network adaptor like he did... I started it up but it told me I couldn't play for I needed network adaptor info from my PS2 memory card. I have wifi set up, why would I be getting a message like this??? can I still play somehow???

you need the PS2 network setup info on your PS2 virtual mem card on your PS3, just go and buy MAdden 03 (it has the online setup on it) for like 5 bucks at eb game if you can't get the disc. Then just setup the online through there and then you'll have to file needed to play online.

There needs to be a Network Configuration File saved onto the virtual memory card you are using when you go online. To set this up you need the PS2 Start-up Disk that came with the network adaptor or some games will take you directly to a screen to set up this file.

That's how the ps2 found your network settings and connection so those games still need to access that file to let you play online.
