Sony has put up the compatibility page for those who are buying a PS3 to check whether it will play their PS2 games. The Grand Theft Auto titles "might have issues"...
Go and check your own favourites, but bear in mind that you'll have (once you've filmed the unboxing and put it on YouTube, of course) to update the firmware to v1.6 - we rather suspect that the ones in the shops won't have got this very latest update.
Tell us: is your favourite game in the cautious "no known issues to date", or is it the more narky "Should play on PLAYSTATION 3 with some minor issues" or the more worrying "Should play on PLAYSTATION 3 with noticeable issues"?
Finding games requires a lot of page-turning - Sony doesn't seem to have come up with one of these new-fangled "search engine" things that would let you find a game without scrolling through a million pages. (Perhaps a job going for someone with a bit of SQL experience who could show them the operand "SELECT WHERE LIKE.."?)
We can tell you that GTA: San Andreas falls into the "noticeable issues" category, though other GTA titles seem to be in the "no known" one. Always noting, of course, that "If your game is not listed here, emulation is not yet supported on PLAYSTATION 3".
