Is there anyway to do this? My dad feels like he was ripped off and I'd like to know if there are any methods like cfw or something? I'm a beginner when it comes to ps3.

im not an expert, but i think the problem was the PS3s (the slims and some of the old phats) had the actual PS2 hardware removed for cost reasons. Apparently the PS3 isnt strong enough to emulate PS2 without the hardware.
Nope, absolutely no way. Only the earlier FAT models could do that
Well, I heard bad things about it (low compatibility and such) and also keep in mind that when this thread was posted there was still no way to downgrade new PS3sNope, absolutely no way. Only the earlier FAT models could do that
Thats not at ALL true! Have you seen the cobra USB dongle? if you are jailbroken and have this device you can use multiman to play your PS2 titles with software based emulation (since this is software based it will not support all titles. in BC models it enables full hardware backup support (Will play any PS2 title)
They removed the PS2 hardware.What restricts the slim? I'm just curious at this point.
it's stated above, ps3 not powerful enough to do high level emulation for ps2 backup/disk and the BC(backward Compatible) systems that were only in some of the fat models, was taken out during the slim redesign for cots concerns so this is what restricts the slim.What restricts the slim? I'm just curious at this point.
It was like his 40th birthday so It's a present I wanted him to like but he isn't happy with it :/Oh my god!!! your dad feels riped off so there MUST be something that plays ps2 games on ps3 or all hell will broke lose...... really???????????? To answer your question, the answer is NO, slims do not play ps3 games, but if all he wants is to play god of war 1 and 2 on his ps2 slim go buy the HD ports
He likes the casual games, cars, halo like stuff, guitar hero etcWait u gave your 40 yr old dad a ps3 for present in his birthday??? Um.... why not some tools or some boxers or normal 40 yr old stuff???
What restricts the slim? I'm just curious at this point.
