    Or you could buy a new xbox - the Arcade version is €130 in Argos, about the same price on Amazon.co.uk (~€126) too.

    Then give it to somebody to flash the DVD drive, bearing in mind that once it's opened your warranty is void.

    Only if you break the sticker. Use a hairdryer!

    Oh, so you see no legal problem by removing a warranty sticker, and modifying the contents of the xbox 360 console? If you crack open a console, you void the warranty. End of story, never mind what the little sticker says. And thus, if you claim anything under that warranty it's fraud.

    Sell the game & buy a PAL version would be the best bet tbh

    The standard DVD flashing mod won't allow you play games from other regions. Maybe try and get a hold of a US box from ebay?
