I bought an x-box here, had extra memory installed and loaded it up on games. The question is, will I be able to use it in Australia? Or is there some technological issue that I don't know about that makes it incompatible with Aussie TV's?

Any 1st hand experience appreciated

You'd only have issues if the signal format was different (ie. PAL vs NTSC). From what I've read and heard most Aussies have multi-system TV's so they should accept PAL or NTSC. If it's a korean system then it's NTSC so you'd have to be sure to have either a multi-system TV or an NTSC TV. Having said that I took a modded dreamcast back to Canada a few years ago and it worked like a charm. However, NA is almost exclusively NTSC. Hope this helps.

Cheers

I did it the other way - brought my Australian tv up here and it works fine with my modded PS2.( from Singapore)

The PS2 is fine with aussie games and pirate copies ( I get mine from Singapore). Haven't actually bought any here yet.

The tv is a multi system and adjusts automatically to NTSC or PAL.
