You cannot sponsor your parents as Tier 2 Dependents. The rules do not permit this.

Nope, the most difficult visa to get, Adult Dependent Relative, even if you are British. The UK toughened the rules substantially in July 2012.

Be aware that even for a visitor visa, they have to submit substantial evidence of ties to home country, employment, income, etc etc. Many visitor visas are refused for elderly relatives as HO believes they won't leave the UK (and years of abuse has caused this cautiousness by HO).
