Will a PlayStation 3 Play PlayStation 2 Games?

Best Answer

Only some PS3 models have backward compatibility with PS2 games. Specifically, the early 'fat' models (20 GB, 60 GB, and some 80 GB) can play PS2 discs. Later slim and super slim models dropped this feature.

PS3 backwards compatibility with PS2 games varies. Old fat models have it, but later slim models don't. Check your model number!

Short answer: nope, unless you have one of the magical early models. They've got the secret sauce for playing PS2 games.

Yeah, some PS3 models do, but don't count on it if you have a slim or newer one.
