Trouble with NTFS/PAL

Hachiminiypito · Oct 3, 2014

I bought a xbox 360 in Canada. Now I'm living in Spain. I Know i can't buy games in Spain because of region (PAL) soooo I decided buy them in MArketplace. When I tried buy and download some game...A message come! Region problem!! eeeeyy This is internet!!!
I can download stuff from anywhere!! I asked to xbox 360 support and the only solution.... Buy another xbox 360! That is not a solution, is a JOKE!!!!! And YES I will buy another console, and believe me, It won't be from microsoft

region code error

I used to play xbox 360 with any games. PAL or NTFS... not to mention i bought my device from Dubai (UAE)

Recently I updated my xbox 360 and then, i cant play any NTFS games anymore...

I used to (and still can) play NTFS games like Batman Arkham Asylum or Batman Arkham City

but new game (EVIL WITHIN) says your region code is not compatible...Same as DEAD SPACE (first game)

Now I'm facing this trouble and someone told me I can break the code for 120$ but there's a 50/50 chance that my device either works or will gets bricked!

Please inform me fast because I'm truly confused...

in order to get region locked content the locations of your account, console, and physical all have to match. FYI even if you buy a non MS console they will have the same locks in place if you try to buy from their stores as well.

I Know but is funny that I can download stuff from japan, USA, Canada,.. everywhere but I can't download a game with other region?? Is sooo complicated?Or is just for money? and FYI the next gen is NOT region locked

yes it is but only for downloadable content and not all content is region locked but a lot of it is.

As far as i know uk consoles will only run Discs for region PAL, PAL E. The only way to play it here i think is to use a xbox from that region. You will also have trouble getting rid of into in the shops as well.

[/quote]Wrong I'm afraid. I own several NTSC games and they work fine in my console.

PAL and NTSC have nothing to do with region locking, it is up to the publisher if they want to region lock a game.

In regard to the OPs trouble I would sell the game on eBay and buy a UK version.
