Would an Xbox 360 console and games bought in Canada work in Europe plug/game wise


Would an Xbox 360 console and games bought in Canada work in Europe plug/game wise?
Ok so this is my problem, I want to buy an XBOX 360 from here, in Canada as well as Halo 3 here or just any game to satisfy me. I wanted to know if this same xbox 360 console would work in Europe like being able to plug it in with some kind of watt changer and also being able to run those Canadian purchased games in Europe. Any help? Thanks.

You will need to buy US games, or other REGION-FREE games in order to play. Sorry, cannot play PAL games on that console. XBox 360 console absolutely works 100% with a European power converter, the same things US & Canadian tourists use when travelling abroad. If there are similar stores to RadioShack in Canada, see if they sell what you are looking for <they closed Canadian Radioshacks, tho>. They can cost from $60-$100. Just remember that it's for something that can handle 250watts <like for computer equipment, appliances, etc>.

An Xbox and games bought in Canada will work - The Xbox will automatically change the power wattage - You will have to use a converter for the plug though Games will work fine - although you wont be able to buy new ones in europe as they will be from the PAL region. Hope this helps!
