So, it’s been some time since the PS-3 has been released in Europe, but I’ve read some nagging issues about the PAL PS-3 regarding backwards compatibility and region free capability.
1. Is the EURO PAL PS-3 fully backwards compatible and 100% region free with all PS-1/2 games?
2. For example can you play, Thunder Force V (JPN PS-1), Einhander (US PS-1), Mushihimesama (JPN PS-2) and R-Type Final (US PS-2) as well as X-2 (EU PS-1) & Gradius V (EU PS-2) on the EURO PAL PS-3 console?
It would be best to verify before one spends his/hers hard earned money on one these! ;)
Thanks in advance.

I doubt that it can play import PS1 or PS2 games. I know the Jap & US PS3's can't play imports, other then PS3 games.

Pd is right, the region free is only for ps3 games, not ps2 or psx. Ya, I was disappointed too.
