Can you download ps2 software for ps3 80Gb?

May be...

i heard that from one of my answer on some earlier questions that it was possible. really is that true?

yes and no but its complicated. basically it depends on the model of your system and where you get the software it should be in the PS store

No. There *is* a download, to allow Final Fantasy XI to access the PS3s harddisc, but this download is only usable on PS3 consoles, that still have the PS2 compatibility.



If your PS3 doesn't have PS2 compatibility (i.e. it does NOT have a Model Number starting with CECHA, CECHB, CECHC or CECHE), then there is no way in the world to get PS2 games running on it.

yes its true but its under development for now it sucks.

IT ALL DEPENDS WHAT MODEL OF PS3 YOU HAVE BUT THE ONLY ONES THAT ARE BACKWARDS COMPATIBLITY ARE THE 20S 40S 30S GIGS

in the first place, why did you get a PS3 if you want to play PS2 games?

No i don't think so
