    Can two accounts in same xbox one console use one game that was purchased by only one account?


    So GTA 5 is coming out for xbox one soon. Im going to download it of the store but heres the problem. Im 17 but my account doesnt let me buy m rated games. If i add my moms account to my xbox one and buy it off there, will the game show up on my account?
    I bought m rated games through my moms account on the 360 and it also showed in my account. Will it be the same on xbox one? Will i need to add her to the family on xbox one. Plz help i dont want to put msp on my account and not be able to buy the game.

    :)

    [quote user="Arkham99"] it appears that the 360 Transfer Cable is also a waste for you have to re-download your content anyways for other profiles to access it.[/quote]If the content is already on the hard drive all that will be downloaded is the new license.

    So you save time and bandwidth with the Transfer Cable.

    My ME2 game usually tells me there is a profile change and restarts my game because I once used my sons ME2 file from his account on my account back before they locked content to the buyers profile. It still does it today. Oddly I am able to transfer his
    file into ME3 from my files now.

    You can set your XBOX One as a Home XBOX, than all useres on this xbox will be available to Play your games.

    But I don^t know if there is a Age-lock, that I can^t say.

    May it will lock you out..

    But if your mum will purchase a Retail disc it should work on your account, I think in digital it may also work

    Sure, but nowhere in the 360 Transfer Cable instructions does it inform you of the need to re-download any content by the purchaser in order for other profiles assigned to the new console to access what they were able to before. I'm sure that many others
    unnecessarily purchased content that they didn't have to because of this glaring omission in the details, safeguarded by a strict no-refund policy...:)

    Interesting, I wasn't aware that you could share DLC content on the same Xbox for multiple accounts (the reason being because I'm the only one that plays my Xbox). Good information :)
