I was recently looking at this site, which shows which PS2 games are playable on the PS3, my question is, because this site is a U.S site, does that mean that whichever games are said to work, will they work on AUS PS3's? Cheers

Cheers for that Crazynites man Do you know if there is an updated list somewhere as this list is only for the 1.80 patch from a while back. Cheers all the same though, this list gives me a bit of an idea on what i can play Because oddly enough, Tekken tag Tournament works on my PS3 but its not listed as compatible on this list :s

Yeah not sure, callan, you would think it being a official PS3 site they have it updated.

If you still have your PS2, just hang on to it, but i highly doubt you will use it once you play a PS3 game, big big leap in visuals, MGS3 even looks ugly as all hell now :s
