Quick question.

Can I buy a game overseas and play it on my australian xbox 360 as long as it is also from a PAL region. For example can I buy a game from the UK?

Cheers

i think so because theres no AU pal and no UK pal , pal is pal and same for ntsc , see this site for more information about region coding www.playasia.com , this site shows you the free region games you just put the name of the game you want in the search box.

Diepen

Yes you can,PAL is PAL afterall.

But why,are games more expensive in AUS then the Uk,whats the exchange rate.

(get a ps3,then you can get games from the US,for next to nothing)

Hey Thanks heaps for the info

Just got my Xbox so am new to how things work with this stuff.

Anyway, I was looking on ebay and found that from the UK I could buy NBA 2k8 for 50ish AUD plus 10-20 postage, but in AUS the game goes for about 99 or 90 if you're lucky (these are new).

Furthermore there are more used games OS so it's just eaiser to find what I want.

Anyway thanks again

JD

My buddy just bought the orange box here in Korea and said that it's exactly the same except the packaging is in Hongul. The actual game itself is in English.
