i never understood why the ps3 stopped with the backwards compatibility. I had the 60gb model ps3 which had ps2 compatibility, when that sodding thing died i had to buy the 80 gb which didn't have.
plugged my ps2 in again the other day after a good dusting and internal clean on the fan and laser been playing canis canem edit since, love that game
also plugged my n64 in but even modern tv's can't pick up the signal from them

grrrrrrr
