Thanks go our to Matt who e-mailed in these confirmed details about the Xbox,
some are well known while other parts might not be.
Official Xbox European site: From
Thursday those of us In Europe should gain access to various Euro XBox sites via
http://www.xbox.com
Importing/Export Games: NTSC games will
not function on the PAL Xbox and Vice Versa. The console has 3 gaming zones on
it (similar to region coding for DVDs) they are America, Europe and Asia.
European's should not worry too much though as Importing titles from the U.S.
will still be cheaper than buying the games in stores in Europe.
Supported Video Signals: : RCA ; RFU ;
S-VIDEO, RGB ; TV HD
60 / 50 HZ Selection : There will be an
option to select the output frequency between 50 & 60 HZ for the games in
Europe. But this will be up to the developers to implement.
