    Can I purchase a game without having enough space?


    I want to get Super Street Fighter IV from the free games with gold, but I don't have enough space for it. I am ordering a flashdrive off of amazon but it may or may not be here before the deal ends. Is there anyway I can get it into my account to download
    it again later?

    :)

    Can I download games already purchased for 360 on x box one without having to purchase them again?

    Please help

    Unfortunately games purchased through Xbox Live are non refundable. However, if you connect a USB drive to the Xbox 360 and reformat it you should be able to download the game onto there without having to purchase a HDD. Just make sure it has enough memory
    for the game

    Can I purchase a game without having enough space?

    Yes. Once you purchase it you can just cancel the download. The purchase is still attached to your account so you can redownload it from your download history later.

    But, I am unsure if it let me purchase it, I press download on my Xbox and then it takes me to confirm page and when I press yes, it brings up a pop up saying I don't have enough space, and I wont be charged again, but I don't know if that means I can download
    it at any time later. Because it does not show the download it again option, it still shows download.

    Ah, if that's the case then you may need the extra space before it will even download. I wasn't sure if you had a small amount of space left or not.

    I guess that's the answer then, but curious how much space is required to start a download? I have two 3gb flashdrives but I cannot switch the download to the other drives to try it out unless I do the method where you download something else then download
    item u want and press move. Wait that just made me realize something, will I be able to download it even when I get enough space, because it doesn't even go to pending and let me change the location of download. I know I need a hard drive, but I don't have
    money for one yet. Btw, my memory unit has 1.5gb, but I cant change to the flashdrives so those don't count at the moment.
