Hi guys,
Just reporting about my new find.. Not sure if anyone else has reported it yet but anyway here goes..
I have been triailing some PAL ORIGINALS i have here that are on the xbox 360 compatible list.. I was greatly surprised when i popped my PAL FORZA into the 360 tray and it downloaded a update from xbox live.. It then booted the game (with some small graphic gliches in the intro movies etc) and the game played in full fine (100%).. I was shocked.. lol
Then i tried my Halo 1 (PAL) and it didnt work.. Said wrong region.. Weird heheh
Last of all i like to thank all those guys who helped me find my 360.. yoshie1, sjohn.. all you guys know who you are.
NVOUSMotorSports is the legend who hooked me up and got it shipped.. Thanks dude..
Anyway, guys.. Ill be reporting everything i find..

The PAL games I've got here to test (which are on the compatibility list) are Manhunt and The Hulk (first one). I also have Project Zero (Fatal Frame) 1+2, MTV Celebrity Deathmatch, WWE Raw, and Shrek 1 to test aswell, even though I'm guessing I won't have any luck with that.
I'll let you guys know.

NONE of these PAL games worked on the NTSC 360.

More then likely you are only going to be able to play JAP XBOX 360 GAMES.. I myself have a few PAL XBOX GAMES which are compatible but only 1 PAL game works i can find and thats the FORZA..
I had to order HALO2 NTSC (USA) so i could play..
How come you didnt know you were buying a JAP machine??
