supposedly yes. I say supposedly because they say that some will play on PS3, however I've had many friends say that they've never found a ps2 game that will work on a ps3, even the most popular ones.
if you asking if you can play playstation 1 games on a playstation 2 the answer is yes.
No. Halo 3 is a game made for Microsoft's Xbox 360, it would not work on Sony's playstation 2 (or playstation 3).
Probably not. Most PlayStation games are region locked, just as movies are. New Zealand is region 4 and the US is region 1, therefore your American games will be incompatable with a New Zealand PS2, and a New Zealand PlayStation first edition, for that matter.
If your PlayStation 3 can play PS2 games, just put your PS2 disc in. However, these games were never released for the PS3.
On the older model PS3 with 4 USB ports most PS2 games can be played, but not on PS3 consoles that have only 2 USB ports. The 80GB model that went to Korea in Jul 2007 would probably have 4 USB ports and Models sent in late 2008 and 2009 would probably have 2 USB ports.

Yes, a Region 3 PlayStation 3 game will work on a Region 1 PlayStation 3 system. The PlayStation 3 does not have regional lockouts for PlayStation 3 games. It does however have regional lockout for PlayStation games, PlayStation 2 games, DVD movies, and Blu-ray movies.
