Hi Guys, I need some advice before I make a big mistake and ditch all my PS1 games.I've just purchased a new (small) PS2 after being told I could still play my old PS1 games on it and none of them work.I just get the message "NO DATA!" or something similar anyway.I was hoping to still be able to use my Namco G-CON45 gun as well for Time crisis, Point blank as well as a few old school driving games.However I've tried all my old games from Doom to V-rally and none of the buggers work.Do the PS1 games only work on the original PS2 consoles and not the small versions? Any help you guys can offer would be great.

if you have your old ps 2 they work
mabe your ps1 games are scrached.......:)
Get a PS1 off ebay for 14-20 quid.
Duh.
My 'old-skool' PS2 still works fine with FFVII, VIII and IX, aswell as Abe's Oddessey.
No other games are decent enough for me..

Your ps2 is broken so it wont play ps1 games for some reasons.
Cheers for the help guys.I'm off to "ARGOOSE" in the morning for a replacement console.Hopefully that'll do the trick!
Your PS2 is broke mate, this particular problem affects both the old and slim PS2. I had the same problem so I got it replaced and it works fine now.
Interesting problem, my old ps2 plays every ps1 game i have (including all FF titles) no problems, the only game it can't play is the special missions from MGS, or play time crisis 1, with a light gun. So that may solve your point blank problem, but those other games should be fine if they ain't scratched.
No, I tried them all 2 days ago before listing the PS1 and the games I wanted to sell on ebay!
maybe your PS discs are scratched up too bad to work.
