Heya community,

I'm a long time PS2 player and a lot of you know that was one of those systems that had a long lifespan. For me, it was so long that I completely missed ever getting a PS3. I recently thought about getting a PS4, but then I found out that has no backwards compatibility and I mostly want to get a newer system so I can buy the PS3 games I missed out on such as the HD release of Okami and also the Metal Gear collection.

I've heard that some PS3s have backwards compatibility but not all do, and so my question is: which PS3 model should I buy to make sure it has backwards compatibility? I live in the USA if that is of any help.
