    Digitital games?

    No.The account that bought the digital games needs to be on the console for any other accounts to use them.

    Digital content is tied to the account that bought it,not the console it was downloaded on.

    purchasing, Downloading & redeeming on xbox 360

    No it won't. If you bought the game on this profile, then the license will stay ONLY on this profile. If you mean that you bought the game on an account, and you want to play it on other accounts, then yes you can. You can play it on other profiles since
    it's on the same hard drive, but you can only re download the game from the account you bought it from.

    Did you download them to a other console?

    If so you need to do a license transfer so your brother can play it.

  6. That is quite odd... you could try a license transfer anyways as that might clear up any issues but you won't be able to do another one for 4 months.

  7. I've seen this happen with a couple games myself. The only work around I've been able to find as of right now is to have two controllers, and have you log into your Gamertag on either of the controllers. So long as you are logged into your account, you should
    have no problems.

    I hope this helps!

    Account Sharing - The Elder Scrolls Online: Summerset

    Hi! If you own The Elder Scrolls Online: Summerset digitally and setup your account on someone else's Xbox as the home console, that person can play ESO: Summerset on his/her account as well, yes.
    Yes, I bought a digital version of Summerset. Friend still, but the game does not see the download. If he finds out at Summerset, he can only buy it. Other games I've bought digitally work together.
