Game sharing feature - Well lack of !!

andyhollander · Mar 24, 2021

I am new to Microsoft as an xbox one user. I bought a console for my son for Christmas and recently added a second console for myself and other son to use. Only to my disbelief I have discovered that I cannot even share games with both sons between consoles in the same household and users in the same family as me. Only option is to my multiple copies of games or mutliple game passes. This is Microsoft exploiting families at its finest! Really disappointing.

They have to add a limit due to it getting abused, also the devs and publishers require it. playstation also has this limit, along with most pc launchers too.

No it's two consoles.but you aren't understanding the limit

Gameshare works two ways

One the home console anyone can use the game and yes it is a limit of one home console legally as required by law

2 only the purchasing account can roam.on the second console as it has to be signed in to use its content

Either one of your sons will have to be on your account on the non home console

What kind of limit is one console per household? That’s not game sharing is it if I need to buy multiple copies of games or multiple game passes for my 2 sons. What a joke

What's happening at the moment??? when i am over on the ps3 forums there are threads moaning about the lack of cross game/party chat on the ps3 as well as other features, and on here moaning about some features the 360 lacks that can be done on the ps3!!!

I'm just glad i own both and can enjoy all the features.

The issue is the features that's inside of the CPU as well as the computational power of the CPU, both of which jaguar lacks
