Yes they are (there may be some that don't play 100% perfect but I am not entirely sure)

Some games of interest

FFX
FFXII
Dragon Quest VIII
Valkyrie Profile II
Xenosaga series (except two sucks really bad)
Suikoden III and V
Persona III
Digital Devil Saga I&II
Shin Megami Tensei Nocturne
Disgaea
La Pucelle Tactics



that should keep you for awhile, I'll post more a little later on

As far as I know, yes.
I don't think there are any that have compatibility issues....

Well just yesterday I realized that my PS2 wont play the cdda music in Twisted Metal 2, even though my PS1 and the emulator known as pSX can do it just fine.

If I remember correctly, the Tomba games (or at least just Tomba 2) don't play on the PS2.
