A Question About Owning 3 Or More Xbox Ones!

So I already have 2 Xbox Ones and I know how the "make one console your home console and play on the other console thingy works". I'm considering adding another console, which would give me 3. Soooooooooooo... If I had
friends over how, if any, would I be able to have all the digital games I've purchased be available to play on all 3? Does that make sense, or is it even possible? Thanks for any info.

:)

 

Are people only delaying the inevitable?

The digital format game "MineCraft Xbox 360 Edition" sold three million copies or more.

I know, the game was already known from PC and thus far its popularity and success on the 360, but regardless, for a digital game it was a complete success.

It's an arcade game though (which I was going to buy before remembering how retarded MS points are in Canada so nvm). No one cares to have those on disc. But they do care about the real games... the ones that make retail. There's just something about physically
owning something.

 

Play Anywhere Activation

Short Question. Didn't found an answer yet.

Can I activate the Xbox Versions of a "Play Anywhere" title (e.g. Forza Horizon 3). ACTIVATE and then Play on the PC (via the Xbox App) WITHOUT owning an Xbox one?

 

I think you're limited to 2 consoles in your scenario. Let's call them Console A, B and C. You purchase all your games on Console A. When your friends come over, you play on console B (you'll have access to all your games), your friends play on Console
A (they'll have access to all your games and xbox live), as for console C, well, you're out of luck unless one of your friends has already purchased a digital copy on their own home console.

 

yup, your home console will have access to all of you digital games, then you can sign in on second console and have access for as long as you're signed into that console, trying to sign in on a third console will sign you out of the second console and it
will lose its access to the digital games.

 

Hmmm... so having 3 Ones is kinda pointless. I guess I shall buy some awesome shoes today instead.

 

as long your name that purchased the games is signed in.... yes

but not at the same time... only your HOME and the one you are signed into...

 

Ok.... I'm taking the bait.... Goth, why you need 3 X1's???

 

Maybe in the future if they ever decide to bring back Family Sharing you'll be able to have all 3 consoles going at once...for now, just buy shoes and maybe get a matching Birkin bag to go with them.

 

@ kingvas78, I really wasn't baiting anyone. I've pretty much bought every game I want and a few I didn't... lol, and for some reason I like to shop. (go figure) So... since I already
have a tv in pretty much every one of my rooms I was thinking to myself "Maybe I wanna play Sunset Overdrive while I'm taking a bubble bath!". Ok, maybe I didn't exactly think that, but so many good deals are on consoles now I just thought I would grab another
One. (no pun intended) I would want to be able to play all my games on all 3 at once though (if I had friends over), so I've pretty much decided against that idea now.

 

"It's our first X1, dad just picked it up today. Do you have an X1?"

"Well, yeah. You know we have... two of them."

"Wow! You must be rich!"

"Oh, honey, he's teasing you. Nobody has two X1s."

 

^ That would be funny if Ones were expensive.

 

I bought my 2nd X1 a few months back just to get the most out of my digital games while I have friends over, also just got a 50" 4k tv for my room and man let me tell you how much better the color is on those for gaming. All those 62 hour work weeks through
the summer was worth it!

 

Goth I get the impression you don't have a lot of money troubles from your posts about $500 boots and your love of shopping. $500 is indeed expensive for most people. One of my good friends was unable to purchase a next gen console for his kids because he
simply could not come up with the money.

Luckily, he ended up getting some help with that, (Won $300 in a raffle) and because he was able to pick up a one, and one game to go with it, he's seeing this as the best Christmas in years.

Not everyone lives in a bed of roses. Or.. boots and xbox ones in your case.

No offense intended, of course

None taken... and you are correct. I have a good job therefore I make really good money. I'm also guilty of loving to shop. I love really expensive shoes also. I seriously don't consider a One expensive. I've seen 10 year
olds with phones that cost more. I made this thread because I had a question about my games and 3 Xbox Ones, not to brag about how rich I am.
No offense but as an ambassador, in the future... maybe stay on topic in a thread. Kinda? ...
