If you want to play PS2 games on your PS3, you either need to get an older 60GB original PS3 (it has the Emotion Engine PS2 hardware emulator chip in it, this is the version of the PS3 I have) or a second gen one, the did away with the hardware EE and went with a software emulator, and while it didn't work with every game and wasn't quite as good as the EE chip, it worked good enough. But they completely did away with backwards compatibility a few years back, and won't be bringing it back. I'm sure if you checked Wikipedia or something, you could figure out which consoles can do what.
