Are there many PS1 games that wont work on a PS2? I ask because I have over 100 PS1 games and I'm thinking of upgrading to a PS2 but Im going to have to sell my PS1 to help pay for it, and I'm worried that I'll end up with a few of my favourite games not working on the new technology.

Is a PS2 really worth VR missions?
It's not that good, I'm sure you can live without. That's only because it's used with MGS, so it's a different system.
If you've got GTA : London that only works with the original game, that might be the same.

But what's 2 games for a PS2?
At least you won't have to throw them out - imagine if it wasn't backwards compatible.

And another thing. Has anyone heard of any cases where a game has only half worked? Where by most of the game works fine but gets jammed in certain places like option and load screens.

I own MGS vr missions so I hope what you heard isn't true!

Also, does Mortal Kombat Trilogy work on it? That isn't an obscure title I don't think.

You'll be fine, I take it you've got good games?
Mine all work fine, about 25 of them. There's only a few weird exceptions, but I don't think I'd even heard of most of them.

Go for it, you'll be fine.

What I'm really after is a list that I can look at and see if I own any non compatable games.
