    Hiya PunkPenguin - You can download your XBOX 360 Profile on your new console purchased in Singapore but certain content will not be available for re-download or playability that are not available in that region. It will show this content available via the
    dashboard because your region on the account is set to USA (which you cannot change) so you will have certain problems if you buy games on the account and you are unable to actually download them due to a region mismatch. Information on re-downloading your
    profile are located here.

    As far as the question about being able to use your console back in USA, that will be hard for you to do as USA has a region lock on their games (NTSC), and Singapore has a lock on their games NTSC-J (J stands for Asia). So if you brought it back to the United
    States you would have issues with playing certain games on them. You will also have issues with the different power supplies as the voltage for both countries is different (Singapore - 230v, USA - 120v) .

    You would need to get a new power supply to be able to use it in the United States which can be purchased directly from Microsoft by going
    here. To find out which games you can use for both your Singapore XBOX and USA XBOX you can visit this site
    here it shows you games that will work in both regions.

    You should be able to successfully recover your Xbox Live account on any console. As for the console working, that depends on the power voltage, and the games. If the games are NTSC or region free, then they'll work on your console.

    EDIT: Refer to Hassassinade's post regarding power voltage and region codes.

    A question related to the XBOX 360s. I got one here in Singapore. :(

    My Billing address is USA.

    I have a 12 months XBOX live Gold Subscription card, from Singapore.

    Will it work?

    I am in Singapore right now and the XBOX's locale is Singapore.

    In Short:

    XBOX live account: USA

    XBOX live Card: Singapore.

    XBOX Console locale: Singapore.

    Downloading BF3 demo from Xbox website

    I can't see the demo from the console. My account is based in Singapore but I just checked now and it still hasn't appeared, so no luck trying directly from the console.
