    I don't think it's possible to play PSX games on a PS3.

    ones you download from sony (PS3 store) can be run on a PS3, so can originals. ISOs cannot be run on a PS3.

    No, you cannot play PS1 backups on your PS3, because of the anti-piracy features available. Like in the PS1 and PS2, they needed to be chipped or use a boot disc to do it. But you cannot mod your PS3 yet, so you cannot do it.

    So... wait.
    You wouldn't mod your own PS3, even if Sony gave you 40000 US Dollars to do it?

    Not that Sony would ever pay you to modify one of their systems, but you'd be crazy if you didn't in that scenario. 40000 dollars and the ability to play "backups" on your PS3?

    ...Get a psp and work some modding magic on it, It's the only way other than a ps2 to play psx games on another playstation sytem...

    And sony isn't really liking what we do here, they just seem to let us go for the mean time...that is my thought.

    You can't just load the firmware straight. You have to use a Pandora Battery and a special program to create a "Magic Memory Stick".

    You can get the Pandora Battery from dealextreme.com
    You can use the program "PSP Grader 8" to make the memory stick. It also has step by step instructions on how to install it.
