Wanna ask sifu here about the console, is there any diff between asian and japanese xbox360?cuz both of them are ntsc/j. the only thing i realise reading from the board is that a asian titled game always work on japanese xbox360 while japanese title wouldnt always on asian ver.

So is it best buying a japanese xbox360 console than asian version?Thanks!

Just get the asian version...for pure electrical flow to your 360 without the transformer....

heyz,

i just came back from imbi plaza today. checked out the 360 price. here's wut i found out:

they're selling limited edition unit, which comes with PGR3 and N3, which also includes 2 ori wireless controller, 20Gb HD, head phone, and etc for RM 1650.00 (also 3 ahem games)

if ur budget is tight, u have an option of taking the same package, but onli 1 original wireless controller, and 1 ahem game for RM 1500.00.

silver membership is not free anymore. it doesn't come with the package as it used to be last time. sad.gif

according to the seller, warranty is covered for south east asia, including malaysia, sgpore yada yada. warranty for 1 year, despite the console has been equipped with special chip to enable ahem and ori games to be played on it.

talking about modification, it seems this shop dropped in a chip in the console, not using program to play ahem games.

i'm not too sure how to check whether they really put in the chip or not. anyone care to tell/show me how to check it?

any advice for me whether i should go for it, or perhaps i should continue scouting around?

Trust me ..get it from DJinn or bernard.....get an unmodded one too...

To be safe ....just wait a little while..and get the 360 that is produced on August this year with the new falcon chip...but if u happened to get the model that is made on June this year, u should feel lucky too, as it is produced with the new heatsink and an extra fan...

dont think so..look to the anyting beyond batch no #728 or date produced on August 2007, just to be sure as some had a luck on getting the falcon chip even though it is produced on june/july....I guess it will take sometimes...but the previous june batch still comes with new and an extra heatsink...and a BenQ drive (quieter)...

Noted again..master tot. notworthy.gif ... How to tell if your repaired Xbox 360 has the new additional heatsink>>> http://www.weplayxbox.com/2007/06/20/feeli...ional-heatsink/

just an add-on...still have no idea..whether the new spec will cure the 3rod...but i will definitely taking the advantage of 3 years warranty..buy buying it direct from singapore....again...."Purchase it at your own Risk".. notworthy.gif

,Aug 20 2007, 10:55 AM]Guys, i just recently brought my 360 but there's no edition like what you guys comparing everything, like core limited and stuff. My box is something like pure white with some "lingkaran bulatan" green color in the front box. What edition is that? And what is "NTSC|J?"
And yes, where did ur xbox360 manufactured from?Mine they write "made in china" on the box...wtf lol! tongue.gif
*
Whats the serial no.....to identify the manufacturing date..who knows yours come with the extra chipset...
Your console: -

1) Premium
2) NTSC/J = Asian or Japanese version, most likely yours is Asian
3) Made in China=If I not mistaken, it is either Made in China or Mexico..correct me if Im wrong...GuYs
4) 120GB add on harddisk is available now..but darn pricey..... doh.gif

Thnx

Im confused

Which yields better graphics...

a. Xbox connected to a full HD via component cables (RGB) or...

b. Xbox connected to a monitor via VGA a cable?

Can the component cable support full 1080P?
*
Yup..component can support 1080p..depending on the spec of your lcd TV...but there is no doubt that VGA connection will produce better result for 1080p viewing..as in my case for Sharp G7..it totally diminish the red push effect at all for HD-DVD viewing through HD-DVD add on for x360....and again...pls review your lcd TV manual..if it does support 1080p connection through VGA connection too...

i have the same question too.
if say i connect the xbox to monitor using a hdmi to dvi converter, how am i gonna get sound? the sound is piped through HDMI rite?
*
through the optical output for 5.1 ..and bear in mind that hdmi for x360 will not carry the sound transfer ..just the graphic...and yes ..u can use the dvi converter....

THanks for the feedback. Much appreciated. I intend to setup my future xbox 360 to my 20 inch samsung 206BW (2ms response time, HDCP compatible) monitor via a HDMI to DVI cable. Are the cables available here in malaysia and will it provide good quality video?
*
All the new batched for x360 comes with the HDMI connection....thats include premium and elite...but I have no clue wether premium with hdmi connection is available in msia laready...by the way ..u can always use hdmi-vga converter for connection to your monitor...

haha long time no hear from u! Yea my question is for everyone, and that includes u too!

So to save ppl from clicking back to previous page let me repost my q again.

1. Are DVI to HDMI cables available here in malaysia?
2.The previous poster brought up another issue that I want to know as well. Which kind of audio cable will it require? I need audio to come from my regular headphone, so is the adaptor for a standard earphone plug available as well? The same kind that the ipod has.
*
1)Why DVI-HDMI..as there isnt any DVI connection for x360????Myabe u should rephrase it as HDMI-DVI....
2) For headphone connection.....u can always purchase the turtle beach earforce x3....in fact i'm using either 1 of triton AX360 and turtle beach x3for headphone audio for x360.....
Earforce X3= http://www.turtlebeach.com/products/efx3/home.aspx
Triton AX360= http://www.trittontechnologies.com/products/TRIGA600.htm

Thanks bro silencer. BTW do LCD TV's have VGA connection that support 1080P. And where did you buy the AX360 from and how much. Thanks bro

I am also currently interested in buying an HD LCD TV. I've limited the screen size to 40" (space problems). I've been through two brands....the Sony KLV-40D300A and Samsung's LA40M81B. I'm confused weather the Sony is in fact an HD LCD TV or a HD-ready TV since there is a difference between the two. Sony claims it to an HDTV but this page http://asia.cnet.com/reviews/home_av/tvs/0...1054340p,00.htm says it's HD-ready. Also does the VGA support 1080P? Help me out here......trying to get the best out of my X360 system.

Thanks guys
*
Ok..after few googling ..here comes the facts: -

For Sony KLV-40D300A = its a marketing hype by Sony...and yes its only HD Ready LCD TV which will only produce 1366 x 768 resolution on your screen eventhough u will c the 1080p signal input is indicated on the screen input menu....trust me..there is no difference for this model with its previous V series....go read the link for spec (Firsttake)and review>>> http://asia.cnet.com/reviews/home_av/tvs/0...1054341p,00.htm

And for Samsung's LA40M81B= its a full HD LCD TV with 1920 x 1080 resolution capability...and being a Samsung..they r always well known for its VGA capability..but dont just buy my words here..go try it at the shop..as the vga capability is always depending on the specification for its internal scalar.....>> http://asia.cnet.com/reviews/home_av/tvs/0...0432462p,00.htm

Hope it will help u...n don forget to buy the HD-DVD add on too... thumbup.gif
