Kind of a no-brainer seeing as the PS2 had an awful lot of games, and there's still a lot of rubbish there.

Oh, I already got Odin Sphere, but I'll look into God Hand afterwards.

And there's also a lot of rubbish on the PSN right now, three of the eleven PS2 Classics are pure rubbish.

Not an awful lot of PSX games, but there's quite a few rpgs I never really got the chance to play.

I might have said this already before, but I'm to lazy to go back and check. The only game that should matter to you people is Okage: Shadow King since its awesome beyond reasonable comparison. But thats my opinion, feel free to disagree with it.

I've played Okage on the PS2, and it's really good, but I don't think it'll show up on the PSN. The stuff needs to be reprogrammed, and the studio that developed Okage is long gone.

These PS2 classics turned out to be a real let down. I really thought the idea would have taken off. I also thought the PS2 remastered series would have been a hit, but I guess not. :|

I think it's a matter of programming. I don't think it's easy to make a PS2 game run on a PS3, and most companies must think that it won't sell enough to justify the expenses. Odin Sphere is the most-rated game from all, with almost 700 rating right now.

I've missed quite a lot of great games on the PS2, maybe that's why I'm getting Odin Sphere right now.

There's definitely still a good number of PSone games I'd like to see:

Legend of Dragoon
Brave Fencer Musashi
Ehrgeiz
SaGa Frontier
SaGa Frontier 2
Chocobo Dungeon 2
Tales of Destiny
Suikoden 2

Probably more I can't remember at the moment. There's a ton of PS2 games I'd like to see too.

The JP PSN Store has almost all PS1 software, it's almost too incredible to believe.

I played some of SaGa Frontier 1 around 10 years ago and it was a very strange game. It had some very random difficulty spikes and it was also very hard to tell where you're supposed to go. Even with it's flaws, it was a fun game and I'd like to get the chance to play it again~ :)

I hear SaGa Frontier 2 was a much better game than the first, so I'd love to see it added to PSN.
