The launch models of the PS3, especially those with 4 USB ports, are your best bet for PS2 backward compatibility. PS1 games work on any PS3 though.

Only the original 'fat' PS3 models can play PS2 games, specifically the 20GB, 60GB, and some early 80GB models with hardware-based backward compatibility. All PS3 models, however, can play PS1 games!

Just get a 60GB or early 80GB 'fat' PS3 for PS2 games. Any PS3 will handle PS1 games.

Any PS3 plays PS1 games. Only the OG fat ones play PS2 games.
