[mthor]

hi,
could any1 point me in the direction to buy a us or jpn xbox online,that will ship to ireland.ive tried play-asia;liksang;yesasia,with liksang being the only site with an xbox( Kasumi-Chan Blue Limited Edition )for preorder on 7 october:<.

while im here,more questions ,
i currently have a friends xbox(hence the above query)and i have since ordered the hi definiton av advance pack to make use of component and 5.1 connections.will this work with a pal xbox until i can find a ntsc version.i really want to check out some games in hi-def with a projector.

finally do most pal games work on ntsc consoles?

thx,Mark.

A Standard non chipped Pal xbox cannot output any High Def You would need to chip it for high def.


As for most games being multiregion i think thats a no aswell. theres a thread in Q&A i think with a list of them

It will only play Japanese/Asia/Korean games you will need to chip it to play NTSC/U and Pal games.
