In around four weeks time I am moving to Oz. I will be taking my Xbox 360 to play untill I find some crazy ozzy friends. Anyway I know that the Xbox games won't work from out there, so I will be importing from Asia.

However I am worried about xbox Live. As my xbox is a uk xbox will it mean I will have to connect to the uk live? If so will there be a problem with lag?

All you have to do is change the locale of your console. Its in the system blade so you'll connect from where you are and not the UK.

dude it will work with no problem.

there is a simple loop hole i know this coz im south african and i move to ireland which is similer to what your doing. let me explane.

your 360 and its games are set to rejoin 2 "pal" no hence why u cant use it in the usa, but aus like south african is also rejoin 2 "pal"

so the only thing u need to do is when u move over take all games and the 360 and get a power converter as aus use a diff volt then the uk "this is to stop the chance of the 360 blowing with the diff volts" the games sold in aus are all "pal" which is the same as yours, so u will be able to buy games there and it will work just fine.

or u could just sell it all and buy a new one there, its upto u

:D

I think he is making a joke about the wizard of oz and the scarecrow mate not that autralia has a lot of scarecrows, in fact it wouldn't be a bit steriotypical mate because it is not a steriotype that their are loads of scarecrows in australia.
