thanks for the info.
so does the 40gig run any ps2 games since it is missing that engine? not that it matters to much, running old games on the new machine, as i found with the 360. but i did hang on to some original xbox games (republic commando), and there are a few ps2 games i would like to hang on to as well.

Although the Emotion Chip has been eliminated in the newer PS3 SKU's, Sony does use emulation which is how the 360 runs its backwards compatibility. It may be limited but all the marquee PS2 games should run on the PS3.

I haven't touched a single ps2 game since i've had my ps3 so for me it's not really a problem besides you don't go and buy a hi-def console and then play a last gen game.

I'm fairly certain the 40gb PS3 does not run PS2 games at all. I could be wrong since its not something I'm overly concerned with and have not investigated.

Yes you are correct, the 40GB does not support PS2 games although the 80GB does. I didn't know and quite frankly, it's kind of ****ed up especially if you can't find an 80GB model and settle for the 40 as some of my friends recently have.
