i'm in nz at the moment... it's PAL over here. i brought along my asian 360 and most of the times i can't buy games over here unless it's confirmed region free game then i'll buy it. every time i asked the same question at ebgames the sales person will argued with me and showed me PAL logo on the game saying PAL games only for PAL console. they never heard of region free games!

my advise if you are living in msia for the next 5 years... get the console from malaysia
