maybe but look at the situation with Blizzard, Vivendi and EA games, there are 3rd parties here holding the commercial usage rights to their titles.

the third party holding the commercial right for those company are the distributor of the game rite? and for PC games only i presume? but i don't think for xbox there's any third party distributor yet.

anyway, if one want to get license for operating xbox in CC, lets say you contact MS USA (since MS Malaysia didn't deal with xbox license), do they know what's the law in Malaysia for operating gaming machine in CC?

but i think contact them and see whats the response wil be the best solution. and get a lawyer advise.

go sign with microsoft...then u become the one and only official xbox seller in malaysia...but there will be wont hv xbox 360 malaysia version coz you are the one and only...

imagine, xbox malaysia version.. got BM words..

My fren might wanna open up a X360 cafe. He's has a few CC in Klang.

In Korea, besides PC-bang (PC room, or as we call it, cyber cafes), PS2-bang and xbox-bang are very popular and are dedicated console gaming centres with large screen LCDs, smoke-free environment, nice comfty sofas, and fully equipped with mock-up racing cockpits, force feedback wheels, guns, swords, eye-toys, and every other imaginable peripheral. They provide memory cards (belongs to centre) and as a registered member they will assign you with your own memory card which u cannot take it out of the centre.

If I remember correctly, it cost about KRW2,000 per hour (that's about RM6.50 currently).

^ terra, If you happen to pop into onw of those console cafe, could you get some snap shots.? Better if they are X360 cafe's. Coz my fren is interested in setting up one here.
Cheers

Emmm if me i put the cafe name cafe 360 Cafe hehehe
but one thing still cheaper compare normal cafe bcoz 1 PC already cost at least RM 3000 for gaming and XBOX 360 only RM 1450 but the game is expensive
