Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

no.

*some* games are region-free...not sure if there is a list of region-free games you can check against but short answer no...unless it's a modded console?

All Ubisoft games are region free.

All others are hit & miss, but here's a fairly recent list of region compatibility on 360 games that i use.

Another good place to check the region free compatibility is on www.playasia.com. They won't have the compatibility up though until the game is released.
