Hey crazyfruitbat,

I’am thinking of buying PAL versions of COD 4 and halo 3 here in India, though I have an ntsc us xbox 360 console.. Just wanted to be very certain if they’ll work.. Can’t return the games once I buy them, so want to be doubly sure…
Thanx

Wow, you caught me as I was online. GTAIV is infact PAL and region free.
My version has pal on the box and runs on my Japanese NTSC/J console.

Hi crazyfruitbat,
just wondered if you had any info on Grand Theft Auto IV ( PAL version ). Do you know if it’s region free? I’d like to get hold of a copy to play on my NTSC 360. Cheers

Ugh. I’m American, live in Vietnam, bought a 360 in Singapore, got Mom from NY to send me some games – Bioschock (which I didn’t even really want) and Elder Scrolls and GTA 4, both of which i’m dying to play. Waited with baited breath for my package etc. etc., and of course GTA 4 and Elder Scrolls are both NTSC region coded disks that won’t play on my 360 from Singapore. Massive disappointed. No place to buy real 360 games in vietnam, don’t want to mod my 360, what do I have to do? Fly to singapore again to buy some games? Jeeeez. I just wish the shop in Singapore had mentioned this region coding issue to the NYer handing them money.

The ones from Japan.
Some games aren’t region free, and I would like to play those, so I might get another 360.
and thank you for the help!

Actually a lot of Asian games do work on your machine – but they have to be a region free game (which the list is for on this site).

When you say Asian 360 do you mean from Hong Kong or Japan? There are 2 types of 360 in Asia. I guess you could buy a 360 and just move your HDD over but I would guess that if you kept swapping it from machine to machine it would give you some problems. Especially regarding downloaded content.

Hello,
I’d like to play Asian xbox360 games, but unfortunately they don’t work for American/Canadian consoles.
I was wondering if I went to Asia and bought a NTSC/J console and stuck my hard drive from the american xbox into it, would it work? Since I want to also play online and have the gamerscore from the Asian games included on the same profile as my American one.

Hey I gotta a PS3 and I’m in the UK, just got RockBand from the USA today, and it works fine!!!
It’s suck a great game, but I don’t see why it’s coming out on PS3 and PS2 August – September here in the UK. And the release date for it on the Wii in the UK, Early 2009!!! Bummer for Wii fans!
