Bizarrely, the 60GB PS3 has a memory card reader built in, but according to Sony's published specifications, it only accepts Memory Stick, Compact Flash and SD cards - not PSOne and PS2 memory cards. Presumably, the adaptor Sony has in mind will connect up to one of the PS3's USB ports. To copy a card, you'll need an adaptor, the site adds.

Information held on physical memory cards taken from PSOne or PS2 machines has to be copied to a virtual equivalent before the PS3 will read it. The PS3 saves game-state data on its 20GB or 60GB hard drive as "virtual memory cards", the site indicates. Sony's PlayStation 3 will play "thousands" of PSOne and PS2 titles, the company has claimed, but if players want to carry over saved games, they'll need to obtain a memory card adaptor first, the Sony US PS3 website has revealed.
