I want to play my PS2 games again and I didn't do research and got a 2 USB CECHL PS3 that runs 4.81. I'm wondering if its downgradable without spending any money.
Please anything would help.

??? What do you mean, Downgradable without spending any money?
Like for PS2 BC? That's hardware. You can't add hardware that doesn't exist, and you can't add BC to a system that doesn't have it.
Or do you mean like for CFW? In that case, no. You'd need to buy an E3 flasher.
I'd like to get my BC system running myself, but honestly… Just get a PS2… they're dirt cheap!
No multiman. No PS2 games. No free games. No cheats for you.I talking about CFW or to be specfic MultiMan. Thanks for the info too.
i actually think its perfectly reasonable to think that a new method of getting homebrew on ps3 for free would come out and get completely ignored by everyone because there to busy with the switch ps4 xbox one and 3ds to worry about this old consoleNo multiman.

You can't just "downgrade my PS3 from the latest version without spending any money" otherwise everyone would do it..
Sony is really harsh in topic "CFW". They will do everything that's possible to avoid that.
it will cost to have it downgraded and it is downgradeable i have a modded cechl if you are interested in purchasingI want to play my PS2 games again and I didn't do research and got a 2 USB CECHL PS3 that runs 4.81. I'm wondering if its downgradable without spending any money.

I disagree 100%. If someone figured out a way to downgrade the PS3 without using external hardware it would be huge news and probably posted in every homebrew-related community.i actually think its perfectly reasonable to think that a new method of getting homebrew on ps3 for free would come out and get completely ignored by everyone because there to busy with the switch ps4 xbox one and 3ds to worry about this old console

As to the OP, there is currently no way to downgrade your PS3 without requiring external hardware of some kind. If you don't want to spend any money whatsoever, you're out of luck. If you don't mind spending $40 or so, you could send your PS3 out to someone that will perform the downgrade for you (or look around on craigslist, sometimes you'll find people who will do it for cheaper plus they'll be in your area so no shipping costs). You could buy a downgrader and do it yourself, but last I checked the prices for most downgraders were around $50-$80 depending on what you go for.
PS3s throughout the years have been released with two different flash chips, a NAND chip and a NOR chip. The Progskeet and the Teensy++2.0 support both, but the popular E3 Flasher only supports NOR. His particular model uses a NOR flash, so he can use any of the three.well the sega saturn is getting ready to be able to play games from usb and i haven't heard of anyone talking about that even though thats a pretty major thing
also what do you mean what you go for aren't all downgraders for ps3 the same?
huh i never knew about any other flasher than the e3PS3s throughout the years have been released with two different flash chips, a NAND chip and a NOR chip.

All PS3 systems are BC. Just not with PS2. But with PSX they all are. Play some PSX games.
This is the reason why I don't want a PS5. Idc about graphics or cpu processing power I care about functionality Microsoft & Nintendo get it so why doesn't sony. Before anyone comes at me saying that the Switch has no bc I consider the WiiU ports a type of bc.
