Ferrari Mailing List: Re: NFC: PS3?s

[Stephen Sherman (sherman]

That is correct. The first PS3 had a hardware PS2 chip, next generation had 
a SOFTWARE PS2 emulater. The 1st generation had heating problems.
The configuration size of hard drive is not an indicator if it is PS2 
compatable either as Sony made 80gig  PS3's that did PS2
and  did NOT have PS2.

I have both 60gig and 80gig that have PS2 ability.

The main reason I have 2,is the Formula 1game and live in the country with 
no online gameing. I pay $80 a month for satelilite internet that still is 
to slow (ping delay) to do gameing.
