List of 1280x960i compatibility in PAL PlayStation 2 games
Last updated: 14 november 2013
Purpose
GS Mode Selector offers one single interlaced VGA video mode, 1280x960i, which, unlike PAL and NTSC, is accepted by computer monitors. It can be useful for games that are heavily dependent on their default interlaced video mode, or that don't like the way that GS Mode Selector forces 480p Enhanced Definition.

- Compromised
- Playable, but there are one or more issues that compromise the experience, sometimes significantly.
