    You cant transfer gamerscore between profiles OP, and if you want to purchase DLC off the LIVE marketplace you need to purchase Microsoft points.

    You can purchase them online from trusted sites or from all game retailers.

    Why do I not have my Indie Xbox 360 games I purchased long ago?

    Every purchase you make through xbox live marketplace is recorded in your purchase history and you can easily check this through your account.

    If you have purchased these games you can download them again from your download history. For further support you can contact xbox live service to check your account:

    Can i purchase games from US Marketplace if i live in Italy?

    Yes there are restrictions. Some games cannot be purchased unless the payment method matches your physical location. In this instance because your gamertag is set to US you would need a US payment method.

    Other issues you would need to contend with are region issues. Some content cannot be downloaded outside of the country from which it was purchased.

    Actually you are more likely to run into regional restrictions with triple AAA titles and apps Like cod or Battlefield

    Even GTA 5 and titanfall and upcoming Halo
