Hi there.
I'm Malachi, an Aussie eargerly awaiting the 14th of March release of the Xbox over here.
I am trying to get an answer to one extremely important question. You see, in Australia we run on the PAL system (as opposed to NTSC). To be compatible with our system, during the conversion process, most games are just swashed into letterbox format (black borders at top and bottom) to run at PAL 50hz.
Now with the Dreamcast and the inclusion of its PAL 60hz option, for the first time Aussie gamers were able to run games full screen, full speed like their American and Japenese counterparts.
Now for my question.
Does anyone know if the Australian PAL Xbox will come with PAL 60hz compatibility? It is of great importance to me as it makes the gaming experience a whole lot better.
ANY information at all concerning my question will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
