No both the PS2 and PS3 will play PS1 games
no Sony says it only plays select titles and that means that it will only play some titles and not all.
Yes. Tekken 3 and all PS1 games can be played on PS2 and PS3
The difference with the PS1 games is that they are less technically complex and all PS3 can play select titles because it was not as difficult to engineer the PS3 to be able to do this.They are even able to make the PSP and PS2 play PS1 games because they are not that difficult to make a emulation program for.You can play ps1, 2, and 3 games on the playstation 3. No you can not. Only the very first PS3 models with the 4 USB ports played some of the titles.Making the PS3 play PS2 games is nowhere near as simple and the games manufacturers did not have to cooperate in helping Sony make the PS2 games playable in the PS3 as they were not licensed for the PS3 only the PS2.
Some of the titles work, and the PS3 is advertised as able to play PS1 games Yes! EVERY PS3 is capable of playing PSX games, while only some can play PS2 games. Your manual will be able to tell you if this is possible. The original model of the PS3 does but the later models do not. The PS3 plays select PS1 game titles. That is there way of saying it plays them, but don't sue us for false advertising if a certain game does not play. All PS3 are supposed to be able to play select titles of the PlayStation games, while only the 4 USB port early PS3s were supposed to play PS2 games No, you can only play Ps2 and Ps3 games on the PlayStation 3. That depends on what sort of PS3 system you have. If you have the 60GB version, yes. If 40BG, no. the above answer is correct about PS2 games only; for the PS or original PlayStation games, the games of many titles play without a problem on all PS3 models Yes...they will..but some ps1 games will tend to freeze if your ps1 games are scratched. Some PS1 titles can be played on all PS3 according too Sony PlayStation Yes the PS3 was designed to play PS1 game titles
The newest PS3 is irreversible. The thing won't even play PS2 games and its only $100 bucks or so cheaper. I've heard it has some things fixed from the older model but it does'n play PS2 or PS1 games.
