List of PlayStation 2 games with HD support
The following is a list of PlayStation 2 games with support for HDTVs and EDTVs as well as the games that have a 16:9 widescreen mode. Generally, progressive scan mode is activated by holding the <kbd style="border:0.1em solid; border-color:#ddd #bbb #bbb #ddd; -moz-border-radius: 1em; -webkit-border-radius: 1em; border-radius: 1em;; background:#222; padding:0.1em 0.4em; white-space:nowrap; font-size: 1.25em; font-weight: bold; font-family: inherit; color: lightgreen">△</kbd> and <kbd style="border:0.1em solid; border-color:#ddd #bbb #bbb #ddd; -moz-border-radius: 1em; -webkit-border-radius: 1em; border-radius: 1em;; background:#222; padding:0.1em 0.4em; white-space:nowrap; font-size: 1.25em; font-weight: bold; font-family: inherit; color: lightblue">×</kbd>, buttons down after the PlayStation 2 logo appears. When this is done, the game will typically load a screen with instructions on how to enable progressive scan. Many games only offer progressive scan through this method, offering no related options in the game's options menu. Both methods work on a backward compatible PlayStation 3 as well. Component video cables are required for progressive scan mode.
When progressive mode is enabled on PAL (576i) games, the resolution is 480p, not 576p. Note that not all games from PAL territories support progressive scan mode 480p even if their NTSC U/C counterparts do.
