About Alexander Hodgkiss
Expertise
I can answer almost any question you have about various game franchises for multiple systems. I've played well over 1000 games starting from the NES all the way to the current consoles and handhelds, in just about every single genre there is, but am especially familiar with RPG, action, adventure, platform, fighting, and strategy games. I cannot help with question about major sports games (Madden), music games, and major racing games (Gran Turismo, Project Gotham Racing). Otherwise, feel free to ask for anything. If you're also looking for a new great game to play, let me know your tastes, and platforms, and we can figure out something great to be your next game.

Experience
I've been playing games since I was 4, starting on the NES with Mega Man, and have been an avid gamer and collector ever since.

Question
QUESTION: i play all my ps2 and ps3 games obviously on the ps3. i dont have a ps2 anymore. i need help with a ps2 game. i am getting a ps2 gameshark for the game i need help on. will it work to put the ps2 gameshark in the ps3 for a ps2 game? if you dont know, can give me a link or source to where i can find out?

ANSWER: Howdie Alex,

Sorry, but the PS2 GameShark will not work on the PS3.  The architecture for both systems is different in such a way that it won't function on there.  Now, there are versions of Action Replay that supposedly work on the PS3.  If that's the case, then I would assume there is similarly a version of the GameShark that does the same thing.  I would look on the GameShark or Action Replay web sites for this specific version.  It should say something like "works on PS3" or the like.  Personally, I've used both, and I always have considered Action Replay to be the better of the two.

GameShark:

Action Replay:

Hope you're able to find such a version.  Take care; good luck.

QUESTION: Well,could i possibly get a ps3 gameshark or action replay? would it work with any ps2 games? i just need a cheat device that can work with ps2 games on the ps3.

Answer
Howdie Alex,

Currently there is no Action Replay or GameShark for the PS3.  Like I said before though, if you check out the web sites for both products, you should be able to find what you're looking for in their online stores.  From there you can check to see if there's anyone locally who may have it.

~ Alexander
