Hot-Drake-Pixel Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 If you are buying 360 then it is strictly not recommended buy from outside considering its high failure rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Shigmeister Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 I have an NTSC (US) console. It's failed once and I had to buy another one because this was before 360 was launched in India. I think its starting to fail again though - I'm gettign "Unplayable Disc" sometimes ....... but yeah it works on all TVs just make sure you buy a stepdown converter for the power from 220v to 110v... and make sure the wattage is quite high. Mine cost me about 700 bucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellraiserpop Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 if i import a PAL console, will it be serviced in india? or do i have to ship it to, say, aus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 You must but the console from India in order to get it serviced here. To all those contemplating buying from abroad - DON'T DO IT! Yes, the price difference is tempting, but overall it's much safer to buy from here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
