I dont own xbox but thinking about buying one ...

i was just wondering ... if theres difference between NTSC and PAL xbox ... as in speed wise ... cos for PS2 .. Pal ones runs at 50hz and u can feel the speed difference when u play games like Tekken Tag/ Tekken 4 ...

Is there any speed differences between PAL and NTSC xbox ?

if anyone know the exact answer to this question please post a reply here

Cheers. :)

What you are refering to is games not the actual machine, if you play an NTSC game on a PAL machine it plays at NTSC speed. As nearly all Xbox backups are NTSC you shouldnt have any problems. To answer your question, yes NTSC is 60hz and PAL is 50hz for the Xbox but what I said before eliminates any problems providing you have an NTSC compatible TV.
