Hey i always wanted a console to play multiplayer games
The problem is i couldn't choose between Xbox 360 and PS3
I always wanted to buy Xbox 360

But here's the thing

Is it safe to set up Xbox Live in Malaysia using Singapore as your location?
How's the connection in the games lag or smooth? such MW3,BF3 and such
Can i buy DLC games and such even though i live in Malaysia but set it up as Singapore?
What if i dont have credit card, how do i buy the DLC?
Do i get any warning from Microsoft for faking location and such?


Thanks
Sorry if i post on wrong Forums or such
Cause i'm new to Lowyet.net forum

Hope to hear from you guys soon smile.gif

1) Is it safe to set up Xbox Live in Malaysia using Singapore as your location?
Yes it is safe. But you need to have a valid singapore post code. I am using Singapore location on my last console then I realize it is not necessary so my new console I set using MY. If you thought singapore might have more player then you don't need to worry cos you can change the location anytime from the setting. I always play with Japanese on SSF4:AE

2) How's the connection in the games lag or smooth? such MW3,BF3 and such
If line smoothness is your concern the you definitely need to get Xbox as XBL is far far away better than PSN but you need to pay. Around RM180/year

3) Can i buy DLC games and such even though i live in Malaysia but set it up as Singapore?
Yes you can. But you need to have singapore credit card. But you can buy MS point from outside using MY credit card and redeem via XBL

4) What if i dont have credit card, how do i buy the DLC?
Buy MS point from 3rd party like playasia

5) Do i get any warning from Microsoft for faking location and such?
Not sure. So far I don't get any warning on my previous console.

Good luck bro.

Word of advice: DOnt use your credit card to buy stuff at xbox live, it will get attach to your account and they way to dettach the credit card is by calling xbox live support all over at Singapore.

*Last I heard there is update in xbox live website that lets you dettach your credit card info, but not sure, didnt dare to use it since last insiden.
