The Pal NTSC thing is a load of crap I can run my Xbox in Pal or NTSC (as it's chipped) and it makes sod all differences to the games. About the only thing that’s wrong with NTSC games on a Pal Xbox are the movies slow down a little bit (they jerks to catch up as Pal is only 25FPS where as NTSC is 30FPS. But games work just fine!
