Can you play PS2 games on PS3 80GB consola?

Answer 1

Since the price of the PSOne games is so low, you should just buy the games you like best and throw out your burned copies. Possession of illegally obtained copies can be punished by fines and jail time.

A PS3 will play PSOne games, but really, why bother? Sell your PSOne and games and buy some new PS3 games. but ps1 games are worth nothing now so you should just keep them for a collection or throw them out!

Answer 2

no, only the original 60 gb consoles have the backwards compatability feature.

However, if you bought your 80GB PS3 with the MotorStorm or the Metal Gear Solid 4 pack, you can. As long as it has 4 USB Ports.

More than one model of 80 GB was produced by Sony and only the first model produced in 2007 will play the PS2 games the model that came out in 2008 will not play the PS2 games. The 80 GB model only plays the PS2 games with a partially software based emulation and not as effective as the USA 60 GB model that was also using the hardware that was eliminated on the 80 GB model and the PAL 60 GB model. A better way to tell if a PS3 can play PS2 games is if it has 4 USB ports. When the ports were eliminated they also eliminated the PS2 software

Answer 3

Of course you can.

All three types of ps3's support PS and ps2 games.

Why wouldn't it?

This is a myth you do not determine the backward compatibility by harddrive size. The myth has helped keep the resale price up on Fat PS3s. The truth is that if you have a PS3 with 80 GB and 4 USB ports it is an early PS3 that will play some PS2 game titles, but less than the 60 GB model because it now is partially software based emulation. The change became necessary for the PS3 60 GB PAL model in Europe dealing with the region control of the PS2. see related link

In 2008 when the second 80 GB PS3 was released it had only 2 USB ports and it also no longer had any PS2 emulation software and can not play any PS2 games. The only PS3 models that ever could play PS2 games were the ones with 4 USB ports see related link

Unless you burnt a Blu-Ray disk with the EXACT game.... highly unlikely.
