I guess the topic of the PS3's backwards compatibility has always been a bit confusing for me. Did they have it at some point? Did they get rid of it? Is it still there? So many questions!

They got rid of PS2 backward compatibility shortly after release so people would stop buying PS2 games and buy PS3 games instead.

It's always been PS1 compatible though.

Interesting. I had no idea. Oh well, honestly I think the convenience of just having all those games ON the PS3 is worth the price. I'm looking forward to the hard drives of next gen consoles.

More this. The fact they haven't added it back in when they clearly have a patchable, working emulator is probably so they could resell more on the PSN, but I doubt they thought that far in advance.
