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?

[SkinnyPupp]

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.

umm...the xbox is modded, I put in a PAL disc in there and it says wrong region code

[SkinnyPupp]

I dunno ask whoever modded your XBOX then. Or buy the games you want to play?

Thread jack, but related to the actual thread title.

Are Xbox360s region locked for games? ie: can a Japanese Xbox360 play North American games?

[Ch28]

There are region locked games and afaik there are no real work arounds for it.

btw 720p will look better

noob question... will the modchip get you banned off xbox live? and is this something external?

there is no PAL and NTSC standard for HD resolution

Yes, it happens quite a bit (http://www.hardcoreware.net/play-your-hacked-xbox-360-online-today-and-get-banned/)

Check ur xbox's modded firmware.... might be your problem, probably have to reflash the xbox drive..

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.
