Will xbox 360 games bought in malaysia work on a console which was bought in Australia


Will xbox 360 games bought in malaysia work on a console which was bought in Australia?
I know there's an issue with the region or something, how does it all work? Also, are controllers the same? Last thing, are PC games different? Will they work?

sure why not, the only thing that is not the same is the electrical plug on the console

Xbox 360 games are unusual in that they do not necessarily have region coding. It is up to the publisher to decide whether or not to include the region coding in their games. This means that for some games, it is possible to buy the Australian versions and still use them on your Xbox 360 no matter what region it is (malaysia,singapore etc). Malaysia is a PAL country..and so is australia..so,the answer is yes.. EDIT : controller the same.. EDIT(again) : For pc games They're not region-locked, and no, they're not subject to differences in resolution either. PC resolutions are universal, you got yer 800x600, yer 1024x768, yer 1280x768, yer 1280x720, yer 1920x1024, and yer 1920x1080. Games are generally versatile in being able to adapt across various res's and many will allow you to play in a window if it doesn't match the res exactly.
