Hey guys! just saw a bunch of people having problems with this tiny issue that affects many of us but don't have enough answers, because, mostly, nobody cares. There are afew of us tho,who were brave (or stupid... let's go with brave) enoughto buy a pal console and bring it back to america (or an ntsc console andbrought itto europe) that needs some answers done...
There is an answer for all of you poor things around the world, and it is: YES, YOU CAN BUY A PAL CONSOLE AND BRING IT TO AMERICA OR AN NTSC CONSOLE AND TAKE IT TO EUROPE!!! don't worry about the electrical current, just buy a new electric wire( or whatever it's called, the huge black thing that connects to the elecetricity), and you're ready to go. Here's the tricky part tho, THE GAMES! Yes, you can play pal games on ntsc consoles and vice versa, but not all of them!!!! So my friends here is a website that will takeaway all yourpain and agony of wondering if the game you bought does work on your current xbox. website: http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-00-3-xbox360_compatibility_guide-49-en-84-j.html. The site is quickly updated and 2 or 3 days after a game's release you'll already kno if the game ya looking for is compatible with your console (for desperate people i'm sorry but i think it's the only way of knowing), and, so far, it's been 100% accurate for me, even with the games the website saysthat won't work (i've rented games first and proved that the website's right, do this if in doubt).Thewebsite's games namesareoredered alphabeticalley and doesn't have the letter shortcuts, so its a little bit annoying but EXTREMELY usefull. You can even order another region's game, that is compatiblewith yourxbox,fromanywhereround the worldand they'll ship it to you, so it's pretty cool. I personally haven't bought anything from there yet, but a friend of mine has and says it works...if you experiences something else i might have forgotten from the site, leave it in the comment-boxes.
Well fellow brave gamers, hope i've helped you and wish you all some good gaming 8)
