| xbox360 region code...
is there a way to convert the region code to NTSC? like the way you can convert Pal Wii games into NTSC?
and, would 720p and 1080i make a big difference in games?

1) Use a mod chip I guess
2) Most games, like on the PS3, are in 720p or less. So no. Some XBLA games are 1080p but downscale well enough.

Thread jack, but related to the actual thread title.
Are Xbox360s region locked for games? ie: can a Japanese Xbox360 play North American games?

I know there are region codes for the 360. Not sure if it affects modded consoles though. My xbox360 was bought in HK and I can't play NHL09 on it.
