Whenever I comeback to this game. i would like to know if its allowed to run through this console. I have a Playstation 3 60GB (CECHA01). Reason why i want to run this, simply because its easier for me to play it rather than running on my PS2 90K with my current set up. this is just for my X-2 J

No its not, there was a huge discussion on all this stuff a few month ago in the FF Speedruns Discord and for the most part, from what i remember, backwards compatible PS3 was ruled out in almost (if not all) FF Speedrun games. However if one of the mods could get back to this thread and confirm it, it would be great.

Backwards compatible PS3 has significantly faster loading times than PS2, so it would not be allowed in the PS2 categories. It would have to go into a misc. category
