What games can be played on Playstation 3?

[Axiodaedida]

Hi everyone
I was thinking of buying a

Playstation 3 (http://www.ps3videogameshub.info/) for my sone. Since different brands can be played on the

Wii, is the same true with playstation 3? Can playstation 2 games be played on

playstation 3?

No, at the beginning of the ps3 there was version, which can do that. But the actually buyable version can´t do that

Maybe you can buy a used one

This would be a thread for the "Konsolen-Spiele" forum which is registred members only.
Anyway: Google and Wikipedia can be very helpful for questions like that. ;)
