|'''Similar cart sizes?'''<br />
|They're DVD so yes.<br />
|-<br />
|'''Can a PAL console be modified to function or even match NTSC speeds?'''<br />
|Certain PAL games have PAL60 mode but launch titles like PAL Halo 1 only runs at 50hz.<br />
|-<br />
|'''Method (Boot disk from an official game)'''<br />
|A Save file exploit of James Bond: Agent Under Fire or Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell<br />Follow the instructions from the link and install UnleashX to enable imports [http://xbmcxbox.blogspot.co.uk/p/tutorial.html Click here]<br />
|-<br />
|'''Method (Modchip)'''<br />
|Various Xbox modchips, a small note that some require soldering and there's a good chance that some are only available for certain motherboard revisions.<br />

|'''Safe to use NTSC import consoles with official EU/UK power supply in Europe/UK?'''<br />
|'''Unknown''' <br />

|'''Similar DVD sizes?'''<br />
|Yes.<br />
|-<br />
|'''Can a PAL console be modified to function or even match NTSC speeds?'''<br />
|The majority of PAL Xbox 360 games runs at 60hz by default except for Hitman HD Collection...... <br />
|-<br />
|'''Method (Retail DVD: Zero effort)'''<br />
|Have a look at the link to find out. It looks like that most Japan copies are locked to NTSC-J consoles [https://www.play-asia.com/info/xbox360_compatibility_guide#list Click here]<br />
|-<br />
|'''Method (Xbox Live Arcade related import)'''<br />
|To be added soon, apparently it has something to do with making a Xbox account outside of the native country.<br />A small note that a jtagged Xbox 360 isn't safe to connect online as Microsoft will ban the console limiting its uses completely.<br />
|-<br />
|'''Safe to use NTSC import consoles with official EU/UK power supply in Europe/UK?'''<br />
|Very likely no because the 360 power brick connector cannot fit into consoles outside of its native region.<br />

|'''Similar Physical media sizes?'''<br />
|Yes.<br />
|-<br />
|'''Can a PAL console be modified to function or even match NTSC speeds?'''<br />
|It was confirmed before the release of Xbox One that the console is region free and every PAL released game is 60hz.<br />Don't expect any special imports that is exclusive to Japan as that console is not doing well at all. <br />

|To be added later<br />
