currently only singstar an a few other games work in PS2 format/ disk work on a PS3 console. There is set to be released a new patch allowing more PS2 games to be played.
The 20 GB PS3 could play PS2 games and so could the 60 GB model that was released with it and those machines are called the first generation PS3 Models. The second Generation PS3 model were the 60 GB Model and the 80 GB model and while they could play the PS2 games it was based on Partially software-based PS2 emulation while the earlier models were Hardware-based PS2 emulation. These 1st and 2nd generation PS3 models all included 4 USB ports and also had Flash memory card readers. The 3rd generation of PS3 models had the 40 GB, the 80 GB, and the 160 GB Harddrives but only 2 USB ports and do not play PS2 games with backward compatibility. The fourth Generation of PS3s are the 120 GB and 250 GB PS3 slim model which do not play PS2 games with Backward Compatibility. All PS3 models play PlayStation 1 Games and do so through software emulation.

Is the ps3 guitar compatible with ps2?
There are some people who had claimed that their PlayStation 3 Guitar works on the PlayStation 2 console but some claimed that it does not work. Not sure whether it will work though. My opinion is: ->Ask someone from a store about it if you are buying one ->Try to use the PlayStation 3 guitar on the PlayStation 2 console and see if it will work ->If it doesn't work, buy a PlayStation 2 guitar instead or ->buy a Playstation3 console if you could afford it But I am pretty sure it'll work because is from the same manufacturer i.e (PlayStation)
