    If I download a game to my computer, when I buy my son a gaming computer, can he use the same game or do I have to buy it again?

    Downloaded game not downloading

    Hey there! There is actually an active service alert for downloading games on demand from the marketplace. All you can do is wait for the situation to be resolved.

    Downloaded game not downloading

    Hi there, the only thing I can think of is did you ever go through your hard drive to see if there was a partial download of the game, possibly with a yellow triangle signalling that it's corrupted?

    Sometimes these corrupted partial downloads can stop it from being re-download successfully the second time. See the link for more information on deleting games from your hard drive:

    Downloading game updates and downloading games

    Sorry to hear it. Please try holding the power button on the console for 10 seconds until it shuts down to see if that helps.

    I'll save for a new HDD and hopefully it will solve the problem. Thanks for the comments everyone.

    Downloading previously downloaded games

    Thanks for the response, but they are not showing up in my Ready to Install. They are also not in my account. Might be because they are old (they are for my original Xbox One, which was about 3 years old....)
