Title: Cheaper Xbox360 games by importing from Asia
Post by: Deaths Head on April 07, 2006, 01:31:45 AM

How about Ã,Â£23.17 for a new Xbox360 game? Not all work though. Some publishers have "wisely" chosen to release their games region free. This is good for us. :)

Blazing Angels - Squadrons of WWII (http://www.gamerankings.com/htmlpages2/931005.asp) and Far Cry Instincts Predator (http://www.gamerankings.com/htmlpages2/931339.asp) are both recent releases which are super cheap. As is Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter (http://www.gamerankings.com/htmlpages2/926971.asp).

Play-Asia.com (http://www.play-asia.com/SOap-23-83-3i2a-3-xbox360_compatibility_guide-49-en.html) has a helpful list showing whether or not a game is compatible with your Xbox360.

Cracking post DH, going to get Far Cry Instincts predator at that price, deliverys only Ã,Â£1.80 so thats Ã,Â£24.97. 8)

Before I order, is it going to get hammered by customs though?

Also over $40 get $5 off when you use paypal http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-00-3-paypalpromo-49-en-50-00.html

Im probs going to get one of these to push it over $40 ;) plus it will look nice on my desk at work!http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-93-49-en-70-196q.html
(note it does push the postage up from Ã,Â£1.80->Ã,Â£2.44) its still worth it though 8)

Ã,Â£21.88 plus Ã,Â£1.70 for the cheapest Shipping (5-10 day delivery time).

This is the Asian release of the game, however, it is in English and region free so you will have no problems running it on your UK model.

If you are unsure, check out the reviews. Average score is 82.

Keep an eye on the Regional Compatability Page (http://www.play-asia.com/SOap-23-83-3i2a-3-xbox360_compatibility_guide-49-en.html) You never know when something will be region free :D

Enchant Arm is on there for a ludicrously cheap price, but since its an RPG I suspect it will be in Japanese only. So unless you know Japanese its not much of a bargain :D
