First time Xbox 360 connection and multiple players...

ProStudioDesign · Jan 27, 2014

I just recently purchased a xbox 360. I normally have two people play locally on the same console. My question is, how can I have two people playing locally on the same console and be able to invite someone else online to join our game? please advise.

Jose.

cant connect to xbox live

Hey there Jakeybean68,

What system are you trying to connect on? Xbox One or Xbox 360? For Xbox 360 try

this guide and for Xbox One use this guide. They'll walk you through the first time setup.

Hope that helps!

Hey there, what game are you trying this on?

-

Depending on what game it is will determine if it has the functionality to be able to do that. For example Halo 3 lets you sign-in a guest (locally) as long as you have an Xbox Live gold membership and then you could invite someone to play online with you
two.

-

Not every game has this option though and some you won't be able to sign-in the guest account.

Hi, DigitalAssassin,

I am playing Minecraft with a disc. I only have one live gold membership. Hope this helps. Thanks for responding.

Ah, yes that is most helpful, unfortunately I don't believe Minecraft has the guests option I'm speaking of and both players will need Xbox Live gold to be able to play split screen online with other players.

-

This should change on the Xbox One version though as you can sign in a gust on the dashboard.

Well's that's a little disappointing. Thanks for clarifying.

Hello Alex,

Thanks for reaching out to the forums. We see you are having issues with multiple people playing. On the guide for play Xbox 360 games on Xbox one there is a section that shows to connect it as you would on the 360 itself.

Playing a multiplayer backward-compatible game on Xbox One.

If a game supports multiple players on the same console, you'll be able to add a second player to a game as you’d normally do on your older Xbox. Make sure both people first sign in on Xbox One.

Unfortunately, there is no page on playing co-op on 360 as it is no longer supported.

Thanks,

Brad
