Dude.. they can't do much about it if you just call and ask when it's available lar.. don't traumatized the support staff with calls like that lar.

Officially it is not supported as it is not launched.
Whether MS will give retrospect warranty or otherwise to units bought before the launch date I cannot answer. I am one of those owners as well. Though I work for MS I still have to send my machine for warranty in Singapore just like everybody else.

I have replied to Marauderz on the matter as well and they are several people in MS (Senior people) including myself who wants to see xbox 360 launched officially. They have already formed the Entertainment and Devices division (the guy is sitting outside my room). The change of heart comes from MS Malaysia and not WW. We are fighting a long battle since xbox launched in 2001. The battle is not over yet.

Rest assured I will invite the early adopters and users of xbox 360 from this forum to the launch event for the support. Don bother calling the call center (1-800 number) and sending an email to xbox.com as they are not right position to make the decision to launch or not to launch. The right people sit way higher than me. (like Corp VP and above).

So have a heart and let's wait. The fight continues.

Guys! I am back. I read all the post. Thanks for the support and some kutuk kutuk also.

We all here to discuss! We have discuss this issue and the outcome looks somewhat bright!



Yo! PrivateJohn, you see all the good things that come out of my rant! Good thing also that you reopen this thread.

Eh! take this as my response to your humping.

Thanks to huikb. You restore my faith in MS Malaysia.

Everyone, please forgive me for my earlier rant . I don't really mean it. However, at the same time I feel that this issue deserve public attention. And by doing so MS, either officially or unofficially, will give public the much deserved response.

BTW, 2008 is long way to go! In the mean time let see whether WII or PS3 will be officially supported here sooner than that.
Cheers for all!

hihi...before we talk abt launch.....any chances we can select Malaysia under locale?

Judge...stop post ur picture here again 

aiyoo no worry lah now at KL got distibutor (Ingram Micro) carry Asian XBOX 360

any problem just send back to them

i agree wif u guy microsoft du want to launch 360 in malaysia bcoz here market is very little and another problem is the piracy issue ..... just my 2 cents like me also a poor guy can affort console but not game another thing actually the game is cheap bcoz of the tax make the game very expensive

I work for Microsoft. There is no link per se but I am high enough internally to know the planning into FY08. (Fiscal Year 08). Microsoft fiscal year starts from 1st July till 30th June. Hope this clarifies your curiousity and animosity.

As far as Malaysia is concern xbox 360 is not launched yet therefore any distributor are buying it parralel from Singapore.

Ingram Micro is one of Microsoft authorized OEM Disti in Malaysia but not for xbox 360. They could be buying from their Ingram Micro Singapore who could be a xbox 360 reseller.

That said they "might" have the capability for maintenance but for warranty purposes you still need to send back to Singapore.

Hope this clarifies everybody question in mind.
