| Will I have any trouble with it in Korea? Will I still be able to play games on it and will there be games I can buy for it in Korea? If anyone has any answers please let me know. Thanks in advance! |

Yup, you're good. You just need a step-down voltage converter (around $10 here).
I have an American Xbox and a Korean Xbox, and about 80% of the games are interchangable. EA is a real stickler for regional coding, though.
Play-Asia is a great site for ordering online as well, though a little pricey.
If you're not keen on Xbox Live, you can always get your Xbox modded here on the cheap, then either download games or purchase backups for around $8 a pop. |

| May I ask...why do you have one of each? Seems superfluous to me. |

i can't seem to find NCAA football anywhere. obviously, they don't do much football over here, so i'm not too surprised. but where in the he** can i get it???
maybe i'll look into that play asia site. are all of their games for the asian region?
otherwise your good, i can always get the guys at the store to tell me if the game will work on my american console. |

Two part answer...I can afford it, and one is modded, the other is not.
One of the best things about the Xbox is the online content (demos, map packs, additional missions, etc.) and the ability to play multiplayer games like Call of Duty, Halo, Grand Theft Auto 4, Soul Caliber, etc. Keeping one legit allows me to do both.
For more single-player focused games, I just buy burned copies at Yongsan and play them on my modded box. |

They don't make an Asian version of NCAA Football. I've looked for the last two years, and I emailed them, and EA Sports says the market isn't big enough for it in Asia. |
