    Hi gents, almost sure they should work but would 360 games from Poland work over here? PAL format all over Europe, right?
    Just checking I don't have a 360 myself but double checking for someone.

    PAL format should be used all across Europe now (even France, who used to be SECAM).

    USA uses NTSC.
    Japan also uses NTSC -- possibly NTSC-J?

    360 is not, alas, region free by default. The vast majority are locked. As Koki mentioned, though, Europe is one region so you should be fine.

    However, developers and publishers can choose to remove the region lock, but alas not many do. Your best bet is to check play-asia and they have a handy dandy list of what game versions work where over here.

    Wish there was less restrictions, as there are a tonne of Japanese games I'd love to play. Mushimesama Futari v1.5 will have to do :pac:

    It's not that I'm importing, I know someone over there who's buying for someone over here.

    Thanks guys.
