    Usage of old Xbox 360 S


    Hello...

    I need an information about Xbox. I have bought (about 10y ago) in Canada an Xbox 360S with Kinect and I've also bought a few games on DVDs.

    I haven't used it for 5+ years and then I got kids (twins) which are now 6y old and they love to play Kinect Adventures!

    Since this device is bought in Canada, and I am in EU (Croatia)... do you know how can I buy some other games...
    1. Can I bought it / download it online and somehow use it on my Xbox 360 S device ?
    2. Can I bought DVD/CD, are there games still for sale, and what I have to take care when buying this (about region) ?
    3. I need to buy new controller, which ones are compatible for Xbox 360 S ?

    Thanks and kind regards,
    Jack

    :)

    About the region lock that your brother said is about PALM games, usually European games run at 50hz, unlike NTSC that run at 60hz, but it is quite rare to find games that are not 60hz, usually all games released they are 50/60 hz even though they are European games.

    I'm very happy to be able to help you Jack. Have a nice day.

    Hello Ezekiel,

    Thanks for your prompt reply and detailed support!

    1. So, xbox360 S model has some internal storage on which it stores games that you buy from online store?

    2. I didn't know that it doesn't have region lock... this xbox was few years at my cousins place and he said to me that he thinks that it has region lock... but OK, you probably know this better.

    I'll find some 3rd party controller which is compatible with xbox 360.

    3. Regarding games, how to search which games are compatible with xbox 360... I presume that on the box it should state compability with xbox 360?

    thanks,

    Jack

    Hello Jack how are you?

    My name is Ezequiel I'm an Independent Consultant.

    1- Yes, you can buy games from the online store and be able to download and play them on your Xbox normally.

    2- Yes, there are a lot of used Xbox 360 games, very good games at a very low price, the Xbox 360 has no region lock, you can use American, European or Asian games without problems.

    3-Original controller will be difficult for you to buy new once the Xbox 360 has already had its manufacturing period disabled. You can find and buy from different brands or used that are compatible with the Xbox 360.

    I hope I answered your questions Jack. Have a great day.
