Has anyone used YesAsia.com?

I'm looking to buy the game only of Guitar Hero II for the xbox360. I don't think it's ever been released without the guitar in this country. I found it here though. http://global.yesasia.com/en/PrdDept.aspx/code-w/section-games/pid-1004976484/

I've never used this site and was just wondering if anyone else has heard of them? And would a US version work on a UK bought xbox360?

Yesasia are well-known among those who import regularly and seem to have a good reputation.

I have several friends who collect obscure kung fu movies (as do I) and I know they all use Yesasia pretty regularly. I haven't dealt with them myself, but it would be a surprise to me if you had problems with them.

As for the US/UK compatability, I'm not too sure... maybe someone else can help with that.

I've used them a couple of times and was happy with the transactions. Delivery speed is pretty decent too.

As for multi-region gaming, Yes. Guitar Hero II US version will work on a PAL Xbox360 system. For all region queries, have a look at this compiled list from Play-Asia (another good website), which tells you what regional games are compatible with each system.

Rock on.

I've used yesasia and playasia for stuff for my daughter -I know ds games are universal but not games played on ps2/xbox etc (pal/ntsc?).

Only thing to remember is sometimes when importing and it's over a certain value you can pay taxes (I think it's around £18-£20 is duty free).

Ive used them many times for buying my pullip dolls. They are very delicate and easily broken, but always have come very well packaged and arrived very quickly

Well it was sent out on the 17th. I told my son not to expect it before Christmas though. Nice bonus if it is.

I'm going to have to Google pullip dolls now lol. My son is into Amine and Manga. He reads the books (they're back to front lol) and found a secret Anime channel on Sky. What's the fascination with this Japanese stuff?

I looked at the dolls. Some of them are a bit strange! Different though.

The game came on Christmas eve and it works fine.
