Gaming Do digitally purchased games work on different region console?

[blueagent004]

- i have a couple of japanese games that was purchased digitally off the xbox marketplace in HK some time ago

- my current xbox 360 console is starting to fail so i need to buy a new one, but the only model that they still sell around here is a european region xbox 360 console

- so if i buy a brand new european region xbox 360 console, will those digitally purchased japanese games work on said console?

thanks for the help!

Depends, if they're JAP only then it's likely they won't work.
A lot of the 360 games are region free but region locks still exist.

you can find out with the abgx website. it should list the region for games. this is for retail games though. I've never really looked if xbla games are on there.
