Look i have a Asian 360 but my buddy went to Europe and got a 30 there. Well fine but the thing was he doesnt know something called region coding.

So he either buys games that dont work on his system or region free games that are harder to come by nowadays.
I told him of his situation he was prety disappointed that his uncle(its a gift to him)shelled out hundreds of Euros for nothing. Granted he received it as a gift but he feels left out.

So im doing this on his behalf cause im his friend icon_rolleyes.gif and I myself im clueless where to get PAL games. So any of you guys know which website delivers to Malaysia or a store that sells PAL games it would be apprciated.

BTW Amazon has PAL games but dont deliver video games to Malaysia. shakehead.gif

Region coding kinda sucks dont you agree? rclxub.gif

Even when I was living in England, I didn't buy PAL games. So overpriced, and games would come out months after NTSC versions. So I imported all my console games. smile.gif

Thanks I will ask him if he wants those games.

Believe me guys i searched through webpage after webpage.

Name it ive been there..
1)Amazon.uk
2)Play.uk
3)Ebay
4)videogameimporters(not exact name forgot)
5)tronix
6)toys'rus.uk

and more
they either dont have PAL 360 games or they dont ship here to Malaysia. Well my friend has finished hunting for PAL games on foot and we both called off the hunt. Surely there might be PAL games one day just not now.But I will not give up the WAR!!

Really much respect for all you PALgamers here in Malaysia. notworthy.gif notworthy.gif notworthy.gif

4) Street Fighter IV
5) Ace Combat 6
6) Fable II
7) Elder Scrolls IV
8) Soul Calibur IV
9) Halo 3
10) Conan
11) Tomb Raider Underworld
12) Tomb Raider Anniversary
13) Call of Duty 2
14) FIFA '09
15) Lost Planet
16) Blazing Angels 2
17) Quake 4
18) LOTR Battle for Middle Earth II
19) MotoGP '08
20) Far Cry 2
21) Marvel Ultimate Alliance
22) Sega Rally
23) Tomb Raider Legend
24) GRAW
25) Brothers In Arms Hell's Highway

80% of games released these days are of region free. Your friend doesn't have to look for region specific copies. Check Play-Asia for region compatibility before buying.

Honest to think bout it, isnt pal games more expensive than asia counterpart?

in long run, i think getting a new console will save more moolah, even though its a gift la.

Another minus point is not able or at least difficult to sell the used game, that would restrict cash flow if that is applicable to your buddy la

i also have PAL xbox 360. bought in UK while i was studying there. The best way i think is Ebay. Gamestation and Game don't ship to Malaysia (although they ship to Brunei (damn!)). Most EA games are not region free. other than EA, i think most of the game in the market is region free.
