There is no PlayStation 4 and the PlayStation 3 stopped because of the cost, so it is very unlikely that any machine after the 80 GB model number CECHF01 will ever be made again. That machine though very expensive retail sold at a loss for Sony.
Making a emulation program for the PS2 still does not work on every game or without considerable effort 11 years after the PS2s release. The PS3 is a much more difficult system to develop emulation for and might not be done for 20 years so the PS4 would not be able to have even the Partially software based emulation used on the PS3 for the PS2 games
As stated by Sony during their PS4 preview, the PS4 will NOT be directly compatible with PS3 game disks.
However, they did say that they are working on a service that will eventually bring PS3 titles to the PS4 as downloadable games. This is currently being done for PS1 and PS2 titles on the PS3 as downloadable games from the PlayStation Store.
The PS4 will not be able to play PS3 and PS2 game titles designed for those systems. Some PS2 games have been redesigned for the PS3 like the games Bully and GTA and the PS4 may have the same downloadable converted games available in the future. In general the PS4 is not backward compatible
There is no PS4 system and no PS2 games are to different and do not have developer support to assist in allowing them to work in a different platform
no it will not
no it cant play ps3 and ps2
PS1:The PS1 Is A 5th Generation Game Console Witch Can Connect To A TV. PSX: Is A PS1 But Is An Improved Version Witch You Can Buy A Screen And It Can Be Like A Computer And It Can Play Ps1 Games Because It Is One.
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
While the 250 GB PlayStation 3 slim can play PS1 games it can not play PS2 games and their is nothing you can purchase to make it play them.
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.
yes,you can create an internal memory card and start for scratch with all of your playstation games or you can get a memory card adapter driver which is about $10.00-$15.00 and convert all your saved games from a playstation memory card and play as you would on a palystation
All PlayStation 1 games should be able to play on PlayStation 2.
No, a ps1 can only play ps1 games and CD's.
if your referring to the PS1 and PS2 then no games fro the PS3 play on them
No, you cannot play original PlayStation games on a PlayStation 3.
no
The Playstation only plays Playstation games and not PS2 or PS3 games
yes they both play PS1 games on all models
With an emulator for the Playstation games
No. Since the ps3 is much more advanced then ps2, it wont be able to play it. Think of it like this. If you look at ps1, you cant play ps2 games there because ps2 games are too advanced to be played from ps1. Same applies for ps3 to ps2
No they can not. Although you CAN play PS1 games in a PS2, you'll need a PS1 memory card to save them.
no all it can play is cds and ps1 games
No they can Play PS1 games only
