All PS2 disks will work with the upcomming PS3. They have designed it so its backwards compatable - even with PSone disks. About the only disk it wont be able to play are the HD-DVD's. Other then that, CD's, CDR-R, CDRW's DVD's, DVD-R, DVD-RW, Blue Ray, and the list goes on. The bottom of this (http://www.ps3court.com/index.php?page=specs) page will give you an idea of just what the PS3 is capable of playing

That's good. Do you know if it will be compatible with the PSP also?

Yup, the PS3 will be able to play PS2 CD-ROM games (the blue/purple bottom ones). I seriously doubt you'll be able to play PSP games with it (except maybe through a connection with your PSP). It just wouldn't make good business sense, since I'm sure a fair amount of people (myself included) would rather get the PSP games and play it on their PS3, instead of getting a PS3 and a PSP....and Sony wants you to get both.

rumor has it that they are gonna put a ps2 reader in the ps3 till they can get the ps3 to read all the old games. so basically shove a ps2 in a ps3 and you get backwards compatability.

I think it does because its blue ray and its slightly diffrent but blue ray is blue ray well i dont know if ps2 blue ray works the same as the ps3 anyway i think it does what the ps3 runs the ps2 games so what diffrence does it make
