My PS1 works perfectly. But the funny thing is that my PS2 is currently broken and I don't think that I will manage to fix it.
I heard that Xbox live controllers are better. Better grip, longer distance etc. But I don't really care about that, I played with PS controller for more than ten years now and I still like 'em.
Oh and will Audio/Video cable from PS2 work on PS3?*2
*1 Not on the Slim version.
*2 The video cable I'm almost 100% sure it does. No idea about the Audio one.
oh yeah
What do you mean? You can't play PS1 games on slim?

PS3 slims aren't backwards compatible full stop. If you want to run PS1/PS2 games on a PS3 you need one of the early chunky models - keep in mind that even then there's a hefty list of things that don't run on them.
(also note you'd need a 1st gen for the best backwards compatibility - due to hardware changes the later ones aren't as good at it)
It's always better to play on the original consoles anyway, and since you already have them don't get worked up about it.
With regards on which console to buy, just get whichever has the games you want. No point basing a choice on things like free online if you can't get hold of a game you want. Both have good lists of exclusive games depending on your tastes & that should be the driving force behind what you pick.

Also looks like the new series of PS3 fat have only 2USB ports. And PS3's that have 2USB ports will not support PS2 games so meh. Also no, I'm not going to buy a used console just because I will be able to play PS2 games.
So....?
First for xbox live you don't need pay pal or anything of it. If you go to a local gaming store you can buy prepaid cards, all you need really is a valid email address. Secondly go for the xbox 360 slim, you get a massive hard drive, ability to customize it how ever you want(with a little extra cash), not to mention the controllers are generally better, I know this from experience, my brother has a ps3 and I have an xbox, personally I feel the new slim is just amazing you can get the kinect which allows you to play games with out a controller, plus no faulty hardware in the slim. Not to mention as it's been stated before, the online game play is vastly superior to ps3.
My choice for you: Xbox 360 Slim with Kinect
Price: Around 300.00 USD (new)
