I’ve bought an Xbox 360 here in the UK and I’m planning to take it to my son in the Philippines, they have the same voltage supply but does anyone know if the unit will work there and with the games, not being a gamer myself I do’nt know these things?

@ Hyppi No you can’t burn or create a copy that will play in your Xbox 360. Pal and NTSC have their own coding and besides making copies is never allowed. Why would you have a PAL copy of a game anyhow if you own a NTSC Xbox 360?

my 360 will play movies but when you put a game in it says to play this disc put it in a 360 console inwhich i think it means that my 360 is not being viewed as a 360 console how do i fix that

[...] Buying new games in the shop: You can NOT buy North American games and play them in your European XBox360.Â XBox360s do not play games that were purchased in other regions, as per this.Â You will need to have your new games shipped to you.Â Solution: make some friends before you leave.Â And maybe give them a few Euros for future postage.

Codswallop. Go to http://www.xbox.com/forums and there are many threads confirming that there are some region free gsmes. I have an American DOA4 and I had PDZ from USA too. There are British gamers who had finished Oblivion before it was released because of region free.
