alamak... asian and japan same lah the differences is the C4 power brick only. my advice just go for asian set because anything happen you just send back warranty to singapore. if you buy japan set you need to swim back to japan for warranty. asian dont need the step down transformer too...

actually your poll not very effective lah hehehe unless you are undecided asian or US machine then maybe the poll should be helpful.

if you want less C4 Power Brick get the Asian Version

if don't mind C4 Power Prick and you want the D-Sub Cable(No This is not a VGA Cable) + Remote Control then you get the Japan Version.

I liek the Jap set because it has the free remote. Quite handy for when you just wanna browse the Marketplace or watch the vids you download. The C4 detonator isn't much nuisance since you can easily hide it from view tongue.gif

But I guess the warranty is a huge factor. Considering how many 360 malfunctions we've heard since launch. sad.gif

the jap console & power supply should be consuming the same amount of power compared to other region consoles, they're the same

what consumes the 'extra' power is the stepdown, notice how hot it gets? that's ur hard earned money turned into heat there... it even consumes energy when ur 360 is off, so if ur not playing then turn off the stepdown, dont leave it on 24/7. plus, its a fire hazard if left on unsupervised.

The Xbox360's remote control is cute... but it reminds me of a dildo. (*coughfemalesextoycough*)

Japanese girls ftw.

Not much difference if you look at PC and Xbox360 as a whole.
--Both made by Micro$h1t
--Both can be implimented as gaming hardware
--Both use quite a sum of power

All we need on the Xbox360 now is M$-dos and Windows and both will be incomparable.

Other than talking about the power supply, I have a question:

When you say Asian and Jap is the same.. does that mean it plays both regions?

I seriously wanna play Tetris the Grand Master but it's locked for Japan only.

TQ! I am teh 360 n00b.

He probably hasn't heard of it.

Simple explanation:

Raw power = 360 @ USD399
Fun = Wii @ USD250/200

Wii360 USD600+/- vs. PS3 USD600.

Worth it? I think so.

According to this link, Japan, Asian, and Korean Xbox 360 share the same region coding, so there should be no problem for Japanese games to be played on Asian Xbox 360.

Really? That's kewl man. Thanks for the info.. Getting more and more tempted to spend my bucks on the 360, and get a really roxxors joystick for Tetris tongue.gif

I just 'heard' there was a JP 360 available for somewhat RM900 drool.gif

[Edit] Maybe I should just go and purchase the game first too, as it was a launch title and dunno if it's still available in places like lik-sang/play-asia..

P.S. Soz bout the whole 'off topic' thing.

No, seriously. I realise that the 'opportunity' of them combining is an option to be taken. Yet, we've seen Nintendo over the years left by squaresoft and ye other crack...

Suddenly they wanna 'merge'... like this?
Bah, maybe I'm just takin this too seriously...
