On recruit yeah. Just going though the next difficulty now. Really enjoying the game! Much better than expected and is helped by a great score too. Multiplayer is fun too

This gets a little convoluted as PS2 games will only work on certain PS3 models. When the console was first released, there were two versions: one with a 20GB hard drive and one with a 60GB hard drive. These models have the Emotion hardware chip that enables PS2 backwards compatibility.

In order to cut down on manufacturing costs, Sony then removed the Emotion chip, discontinued the 20GB and 60GB models and released an 80GB model with handled PS2 backwards compatibility thru software emulation. All of those models were released in the first two years of the console's life.

Any PS3s released since the beginning of 2008 don't support PS2 backward compatibility. There are rumors that a future firmware upgrade for the PS3 will re-instate backwards compatibility but for now, if you want that feature, you really have to look around and find one of those old models, being very careful to check the packaging to make sure that what you're looking at will give you what you want.

Thank's for that,very informative.Will be extra carefull when shopping around for games.
My PS3 is brand new so made well after the beginning of 08
Think I might get QOS next,sound pretty good as far as I can tell,and buy it on bluray.
