Hi guys, I'm planning on getting xbox 360 from United Kingdom. I want to know whether I should get any extra adapter or step-down transformer before I can play? According to this site: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/907635?sd=xbox AC power cords section I think its OK because I know Singapore and Malaysia use the same voltage. but just to be safe I want to ask xbox expert here, what do you guys think? Thanks in advance. This post has been edited by sg552: Jul 4 2009, 09:48 PM

^ or Aus. But keep in mind that it's not a good plan in the long run, as you'll be paying quite the premium for new games, and might not be able to get used games from local forumers. Most people don't get PAL consoles for a reason
