| Easiest thing to do is order from www.play-asia.com They are based in Hong kong and have both asian and american versions for sale, reasonably priced and include free shipping to Korea. |

| i was hoping for someplace i could get it on the spot. not sure if i'm comfortable with having mail sent to me since i'm not sure how to give them my address in a way where things won't get lost. |

| I get mine delivered to my office and it gets there without a hitch. They shipped out Call of Duty 4 last Friday and it arrived yesterday, so exactly 7 days with their free shipping. I'm a happy camper! |

OP most of the 360 games are region free. And unless its a Japanese-only game they are most likely totally in English

| I would not say "most" of the games are region free, so the OP isn't out of line asking for where he can get U.S. games. Any EA games are region locked for example. COD4 isn't I believe but there are many that are. Halo 3 for example if you bought it here was completely in Korean! |

|

I just wanted to ask if an NTSC U/C winning eleven pro evolution soccer 2007 would work on my korean (unmodded) xbox 360. If so i can order it from play asia but if not i will have to get my machine modded to play a version in english.
which would lead me to my next question. does anyone know someone reliable who can mod my xbox 360 in yongsan?
thanks a lot guys, it gives me a headache when it comes to silly things like this so i really appreciate any help. |

| I got Oblivion for the 360 from play-asia, and with $10 expedited shipping it arrived in 3 days! Totally worth the extra cost for me. |

| I download them. I refuse to pay 10k a game, especially when they're 80 baht a game in Thailand. |
