    Downloading full games

    If I download a full game from the xbox live marketplace it will be stored on my harddrive right. Can I then play the game without a CD/Disk.

    I saved a game [ gears of war ] on my harddrive but when I wanted to play it it said:
    Input disk. So I am unsure if I can play games I purchased online or if I will need the CD/Disk

    Buying Disc and Digital Of Same Game Question

    I bought the disk version of bf4 and later on wanted the digital version so i can switch without inserting the disk, you don't have to re download the game if you installed it with the disk all you download is the digital license witch takes about 10 seconds.

    No. You would have to purchase them digitally in order to download them digitally.

    Help me

    Unfortunately downloading the game using a disk does not mean you can play without the disk. Installing the game only let's the game run faster since the xbox does not have to read the entire disk. You will still need the disk to play or purchase the digital
    copy. I hope this helps you understand why you need the disk.

    Xbox One S having the option for no Disc slot at a lower price for those that don't use it

    Agreed. It is a great option.

    I never use the drive and it seems to be the issue with my past consoles, so I'm happy to see there is an option without one!

    My games on disk can be updated to download only too!
