    Will The Xbox One Ever Catch The PS4 In Sales?

    We'd better just wait when the XB1 releases in the other regions. We're only seeing sale figures in total from few regions but not yet from the other regions.

    Region completion stats. One region gives you 33%, there are three regions. Complete all of them, you get 100% region completion.

    region lock?

    Buying digital games from other regions that aren't your own is against the Coc/ToC & may result in a suspension or even a ban.

    Cant download resident evil 6

    Well there is your answer

    Region locks only apply to region locked content

    Yes there are games that are region locked and your accoung region and actual region must match

    Resident evil is one of many region locked content

    Issues regarding dlc and digital codes for xbox 360

    If the game is region locked then a code for the game will be region locked. In order to download region locked content, your account region has to match your physical location and you have to be in a region where the game is available.

    HELP i cant Download or buy anything

    As mister gwyther said certain content are region locked blackops is region locked

    Not all content is region locked it is ideal to create an account in your actual region

    Prepaid dlc codes like gears of war and blackops are region locked and will fail before completion

    Remeber the region locks are not limited to those two games

    But for games and dlc you have the issue with your best option is to buy your actual region

    This code can't be redeemed. It was purchased in a different region from your account.

    No. Gifting is region locked and there is no way around region locking.

    Can't Download Sleeping Dogs (Region Error)

    Bios hock is region locked but not ntsc or pal region locked

    Region locks don't always apply to games that's why we suggest your location match your actual region and buy consoles and games from your actual region
