    Hiya
    Im planning on buying a 360 from Canada in the next week. Does anyone know of any issues that I might face? Aside from the power converter and region settings, I dont know of any.
    Cheers

    Don't think they support PAL at all but if you have a modern TV that will be no problem. You can just buy a 240v power brick on ebay if you don't want to have to lug around a stepdown.

    yeah get the power brick on ebay its what i did with my Japanese one. Like Ciaran500 said the only problem you should have is with games. It will only play Ntsc/U games or any that are region free. videogamesplus.ca is a good place to get US games from. and keep an eye out for whats region free and get the from play asia

    I was planning on getting it from videogamesplus.ca. I got a PS2 + a few RPGs off them a while back so I already have the power convertor and my TV is NTSC compatible.
    I saw on a few sites that there are the no region games. Are these no region everywhere? e.g. if I bought GRAW in dublin would it work on a US 360 or would I have to import it?
    Also, would my xbox live account be affected?
    Thanks for the info.

    Region free games on that site is region free for every type of xbox 360. Your live account would make no difference because I use my european account on the japanese 360.
