#PS3 SERIAL NUMBER CECH 4201B SOFTWARE#
i personally JUST updated my 80gb model to the latest software version and it did not effect its backward compatible ability to play ps2 games.Ĭheat sheet summary: to positively ID a backwards compatible ps3 either look for a “fat” model with 4 usb ports OR look at the model number: CECHA01, CECHB01, or CECHE01.Your IP address has been temporarily blocked due to a large number of HTTP requests. it is reported that there is a confirmed short list of ps2 games that might not be compatible with the 80gb model, which makes it slightly less desirable but still in demand.Ĩ0gb model note: there is a false rumor floating around that this model must have its original firmware or system software to be backwards compatible. the 80gb model only has partial ps2 hardware and partially “emulates” the software. it is reported that only a few ps2 games might not be compatible with these models, which makes these models very desirable and in demand. they basically have ps2 chips inside of them. 20gb ps3 = CECHB01, 60gb ps3 = CECHA01, and 80gb ps3 = CECHE01Īdditional info: the 20gb and 60gb models are fully “hardware compatible”. Model numbers: look on the back of the ps3 and the white serial number sticker lists the specific model number of these three backwards compatible models. if it has 4 usb ports, then it is backwards compatible! Identification: look for a fat ps3 with 4 usb ports. read on to determine which ones have it and what to easily look for. there is a lot of silly info out there as to what to look for to determine if your ps3 is backwards compatible.
Specific models: only three models of the fat ps3 are backwards compatible. they are big, heavy, and have a shiny gloss black top cover with PLAYSTATION 3 in big chrome letters. this is the “fat” ps3 with the chrome trim. ALL PS3 MODELS ARE CAPABLE OF PLAYING PS1 GAMES!Įarly models only: the earliest variation of the ps3 is the only model type that is potentially backwards compatible. Important note: when i say backwards compatible, this specifically refers to ps3 models that can play ps2 games.
by writing this article i hope to clear this up with a definitive article, once and for all. i will keep it simple and to the point because there is way too much “bad info” on the internet regarding on this topic.
