As far as software emulation got, I think you are right, it may well be the fact that the PS3 simply isn't powerful enough to emulate the PS2.

 

It is probably to difficult to emulate. The PS-2 was well known for the dirty tricks that were used to implement some effects. So you can't simply translate the orders but you have to emulate at least parts of the circuitry.

Yeah but that only for some games no? Yet even game without these need a beast to be able to run at any kind of speed. Some of the latest SNES game(such as Star Ocean) and other such a Star Fox were hard to emulate but the emulator could still run all the "normal" game without problem and that was long after computer was in a whole other class of power compared to the SNES.

I am not talking about having problem emulating the more esoteric fonction used on the PS2 but simply the power needed to run your run of the mill game.
