Yes it is. It does so using a "backwards" format.
Yup, the ps3 slim will play ps3 games. It is the same as a normal ps3 but has a slimmer look to it but most regular ps3s has more memory.
The PS3 slim will not play PS2 games with full backwards compatibly.
Yes they can and they can also play on the new slim released in May 2010. They really are only PS3 games and not games for the slim or fat PS3
None the PS3 slim does not play PS2 games
The PS3 slim and most of the fat PS3s do not play PS2 games and there is nothing that will change that. If you do not have a PS3 with a Card reader and 4 USB ports you will never be able to play PS2 games on it, except the few PS2 games sold at the Playstation store and already converted into PS3 games
No it is a myth that you can just download something and be able to play PS2 games, another part of this myth is that it was available from the PlayStation store.
you can`t
It depends on what you want to do with your PS3, if you are looking to be able to play PS2 games, then you get a PS3 Fat, but if you only want it for PS3-related usage, you should definitely go for a slim.
yes
The PS2 Slim Plays all the PS2 games the Fat PS2 would.
All PS3 models can play PS3 games and also select PS1 games
Yes, all PS2 games will work on a PS3 system, including Okami. No only a couple of the first PS3s could play the PS2 games. The slim PS3 will never be able to play any PS2 games
