downloading free games for two xbox's

morbidpoet69 · Nov 27, 2014

me and my son have our own xbox 360's and our own live accounts. We have limited downloads on our internet. On the free games for xbox live is there a way to download the game once and transfer it to the other system. When I do it with the storage device
the other one does not have the license even though we are paying for two accounts.

Two Xbox's in the house...

So if I bought the game as a digital download, I would be able to play it on all consoles that I own? Seems that if I have the license on one copy, Microsoft would be able to figure out that I own it (disk in one console) and the IP address would show that
the other console is in the same place.

With discs you would need another copy in order to play it on another console. The disc has to be in the console in order to play to prove that you actually have the game and that would not be possible on a second console.

If you were to buy the game digitally, you would only have to purchase it once.

If you want both accounts to be able to access the games on both consoles, you would need to download them on both in order to have the console licenses on both. Otherwise, only the game that originally downloaded the game will be able to play it on the
second console.

is there any way around that for people who have isp that limit how much they can download?

I have two XBOX one's at home and with the home sharing I have to at least initiate the download for the free games with gold before they will download to the second Xbox.

if one cannot download the free item for the two week period because of lack of time or poor internet, or not enough drive space. attempt to start the download and after it has started cancel it that game will be added to your download list for your xbox
account. Therefor since your profile has had it before it is possible to download it again for free at a later date outside the two week period.

The Xbox Dashboard will show two free downloads.

.

Dashboard --> Games --> On Demand --> A to Z --> Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 --> Extras --> 'Free to Public: Aground and Erosion' and 'Free to Public: Terminal'.

X box Live Gold membership gave me free Games with Gold every month: two on Xbox One and two on Xbox 360. which I downloaded to my console.But all games i downloaded during my subscription are not playable right now and asking for renew subscription

That means these are not really free.Only advertisement gimmick

When you download the free game it is yours to keep even if your account reverts to a silver membership. Only two titles that Microsoft chooses are free to download each month.
