Gamecube PAL games in progressive ?

I have an USA gameucbe, can PAL games run in progressive on it?

I´m wondering if I should buy the us version of games like soul calibur, f-zero, mario kart etc.? If they don´t run progreissve on PAL then NTSC games it is, but if PAL games do run progressive, then I welcome the extra resolution(and hope that the action replay does it´s job).

Are you 100% that PAL games don´t run in progressive. I´ve read somewhere that it was possible.

Reet lets make it simple.

You have a US cube - buy US games and be guaranteed working progressive scan (if the title supports it.)

Some PAL games MAY run in progressive scan but this is more of a bug/side effect of freeloader than anything else. When they do run in progressive it will most likely be NTSC ps anyway.

Just get the US versions fella.
