Unfortunately X1 isn't released in my country untill next year, so I have to drive 4 hours to get it in Germany. two of my Xbox friends are going with me though, to get X1 also oc.
Youre going offline rill the 22nd? Not sure but anyways two weeks will go by before you know it. In some ways staying off the net will make you look forward to the 22nd even more since you wont have to deal the trolls trying to dampen our excitement. Willbe a great launch.
Did you hear any words on how it will work? I am importing US version to South Korea and hasn't heard any confirmation on how it will work.
Yes, the Danish Xbox board "http://www.xboxlife.dk/forum/" has been in contact with Danish MS regarding importing Xbox One.
Login with you excisting GT, and select a region and laguage where X1 are officielly released (that will be UK for me, Germany got too many restrictions for games)
If you wan't to buy DD you can use prepaid cards from UK if you choose UK as location. (US cards if you choose US as location)
There's no region lock, so go ahead and buy they were told.
Easy.
Some countries may need a net adapter though, but that's not a problem in EURO, we got 220 volt in all contries
Electricity in Korea, South is 220 Volts, US is 110 so you will need a converter from 220 v down to 110 volts.
I have contacted various Microsoft related support services on that, and the final answer was that I need a converter. I'm buying one, shouldn't be a problem. I'm more worried of region restriction. I already converted my Live account to US one to use Xbox Music, but sometimes purchases on XBL Marketplace check the region, and then there's the distance to server. I am a little worried on that, just hoping that VPN will do wonders.
MS Denmark told us there NO region restriction on X1 or the games.
There MAY be restrictions on music or movies though, but they will be lifted once X1 are officially released in Denmark.
I know the games themselves will be fine, but I'm wondering if there will be no problem in purchasing these games. 360 had that problem, so when I was trying to download Rainbow Six Vegas with US account in Korea, Live checked my IP and blocked payment. This was case by case, but I'm hoping it happens with no game at all this time.
We were told that you need a UK credit card if you buy from UK marked place. But if you pay with pre-paid gift card from UK there no problems. ( US gift cards if you buy from US oc)
These card are easy to find, I've already bought alot of them

Yeah Microsoft Store seemed to work, that's actually where I ordered my box. But I still hope my VISA-enabled debit card just works like it does on Apple App Store, Steam and Amazon.
That would make things alot easier. We'll know the answer in 2 weeks. I'll test both paypal and Visa card. I got enough pre-paid cards to buy 3 games.
