the current 80gb also can play, but it rather emulates rather than run as the same emotion engine as ps2's. future 80gb wont have the emulator or the EE inside. so no ps2 games playback.

by the way, as im not in KL area, planning to go there in near future, anyone knows where i could find the limited edition ps3? thanks in advance.

Do you really need the PS2 support? Do you play original PS2 games?
First editions of 80GB, 60GB and 20GB support PS2 gaming/emulation.

But i heard if we use ps3 to play ps2 game....the graphic is even worst than using ps2 itself.....i dont know it is bcoz of upscaling or wat......but i know the graphic is more clear tat is y....it emphasized the blur or weakness of ps2 graphic.....( i dont know u understand wat i m saying or not... hmm.gif hmm.gif hmm.gif )....but for DVD movie....yes...the upscaling really make the graphic more clear and impressive also.... tongue.gif

u can go youtube and search FFX in ps2 and ps3 graphic comparison....then u know in detail...

It all depends what PS2 games region that you have. If you have a UK version you will need a PS3 from Europe. If you have US ps2 games than you will need a US console PS3 and so on.... A new PS2 cost around RM400-RM600
