I'm having trouble playing a Resident Evil 2 Playstation disc on my PS3.

I completed the Leon disc and inserted the Claire disc and had no gameplay problems until the scene after Claire destroys the doorway blocked by the wrecked plane and walks down the hallway and into a room where she contronts Jeremy Irons, who is sitting behind his desk with the dead daughter of the mayor resting on his desk. He tells his story, and right as he says "her skin nothing short of perfection", the game freezes and I cannot continue playing. I've tried resetting the console and inspecting my disk for damage, but neither have resolved the problem.

When I insert the Claire disc without a Leon game save and start the game from the very beginning from Claire's vewipoint, I also have problems. Duirng the scene where Claire first enters the police station and confronts the injured police officer in the room where Leon's welcome party was planned, the sound glitches. The dialog between Claire and the wounded police officer is replaced with dialog from later in the game between Sherry and Claire. The game cannot be continued.

I'm using the same disc I've used since I first bought the game in 1998. The disc has only very light scratches and is in overall great condition. I've never had this problem.

Not all PS1 games are fully compatible with PS3. Is this a game that is not fully compatible, or is there some other problem?

This sucks.

The Resident Evil series with the exception of the RE Director's Cut have been known to have many compatibility issues.

:lol: Lol, I'd agree with you if it wasn't for the fact that the game is over 10 years old. I mean come on, if you haven't had time to play it in the last decade, and then get offended by someone spoiling it for you, I feel more shame for you not playing it by now more than anger for the dude having spoiled major plot points for you.

Better not spoil the fact that at the end of each Megaman game you beat Doctor Wily....oops. ;)
