Do you have a large collection of PlayStation 2 games and are wondering which consoles can run them? Know that there are some options, but there aren’t many.
Obviously the games on disc for PlayStation 2 run perfectly on any model of the legendary Sony console, given that at the time there were no titles in digital format and any gaming machine available in stores, whether it was the classic Fat model or the Slim one, necessarily had to be equipped with an optical drive capable of running any game.
So leaving aside the most obvious answer, know that there is also another console with the ability to run PlayStation 2 games, although many have forgotten this. We are referring to the model initially put on the market, namely the PlayStation 3 Fat in 20 and 60 GB versions of internal memory. These consoles, which stand out from subsequent models due to the presence of the memory card reader and for them four front USB portsthey are the only ones to be equipped with additional hardware components that allow the console to run any game perfectly: in simple words, it is as if there was an integrated PS2 and this is why everything works perfectly.
A different story applies to PS3 Fat and 80 GBwhich can instead run PS2 games via software emulation, but in this case it often happens that you come across problems of various kinds. All the models that arrived on the shelves subsequently, however, do not have any type of backward compatibility. Obviously this discussion also applies to subsequent generations, since both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 do not support physical PS2 gamesbut it is possible to purchase and start the games available on the PlayStation Store, which are emulated on the latest generation platforms, sometimes with some improvements.
