get your facts straight please b/c God of war 2 works perfectly on european ps3. And yes, ps1 is still supported.
As of now, 72% of all PAL PlayStation 2 titles will run on the PlayStation (1,782 games out of the 2,451 titles that were released).

Quote:Technical problems
Sony has published a website which contains a list of all older games that will work on the PS3 and states if there are any known technical problems when playing the titles.
There are three levels of compatbility for the games that will play - no known issues, some minor issues and noticeable issues.
Recent PS2 titles such as Pro Evolution Soccer 6, God of War II, Final Fantasy XII and Fifa 07 will play but there are likely to be some technical glitches.
Classic games such as Ico, Metal Gear Solid 3 and Grand Theft Auto will also play on the new machine.
In order to play the older games, PlayStation 3 owners will have to update the console's system software, called firmware, either online or via a disk.
More than 115 million PlayStation 2 consoles have been shipped worldwide, and almost two million of its successor were shipped between its launch and the end of December. More than one million PS3 will be available for the European launch.

Thanks,its sad sony had tot ake this route,but I am hoping their so manic muti persona'd that the emulation will gear up over a year or 2 to be near perfect with graphic enhancements to boot.
But who knows Sony has trouble finding its head and MS cnat find its heart *L*

The link said there may be glitches not there are glitches in GOW2.I was willing to bet that this game was going to run smooth with all PS3 systems its a major title.

I'm not buying a ps3 until it can be modded and all my ps2 games can be played on it.
Sony needs to get their act together.
