    Games downloaded from Xbox Live to 360 hard drive


    As a longtime Live Gold member I've enjoyed the ability to download a number a games to my 360 hard drive for free each month as part of my membership. One of these is Halo 3 which I had missed even though I did buy halo 4 when it first came out. I have
    a grandson who also has an Xbox 360 and a Live Gold membership but he missed this particular free download and we want to play the game together at his house and on his machine. So what I'm asking is if there is anyway I can copy or even move if I must, the
    downloaded game from my hard drive to his so that we can enjoy playing together? Perhaps it can be copied to a USB memory stick and then played on his Xbox directly from the USB stick or after being copied to his hard drive? I don't know, but I hope it's
    possible. If it is, please tell me the best way to go about this. Thanx much in advance for any help!

    :)

  3. Downloaded games won't play without disk...why?

    I have saved several games from purchased disk to hard drive, plus downloaded from live to console, but they say that I cannot play them without having the disk inserted. Why do I have to insert the disk if it is downloaded to the hard drive? How do I play
    a game downloaded to the hard drive without using the disk?

    You could take your hard drive and put it on his console and play.

    Since you downloaded the game, it is licensed to your console (where you first downloaded it) for any account to play, and it is also licensed to your account on any Xbox 360 if you are signed in to Xbox Live. So when you are signed in on his machine,
    you can download it again and you can both play (Halo 3 has split screen, right?) on his console, as long as his console is connected to Xbox Live. As soon as your account signs out, he can't play "your copy"; he would have to buy it, if he missed the free
    download.

    If you want to play on separate consoles at his house, you could bring your console with you. He plays on your console, taking advantage of your console license, and you play on his console (assuming it is connected to Xbox Live).

    The console license/ Live account license makes sense once you get the concept, but it is non-obvious at first.

    What you can do is put a USB drive into your xbox, then copy the file onto the thumb drive and plug it into your grandsons xbox. go to the systems hard drive under system settings and select usb. After that select the file and press A on move then select
    the hard drive and it will move the copied file over to the xbox. I hoped I explained the instructions clearly enough.

    Fable

    Hello,

    Since this is an original Xbox game you need to actually have an original Xbox 360 hard drive (not one purchased from a 3rd party like eBay or Amazon Marketplace, etc). Original Xbox games require that you have an original Xbox 360 hard drive as well as the
    latest system update (which you should have if your connected to Xbox LIVE).

    The cause of this "This game couldn't start. Try downloading the game again." is usually caused by the hard drive not being genuine or you trying to download this particular content onto a USB Flash Drive which does not contain the hidden emulation files only
    available on the original Xbox 360 hard drives.

    Got this error code: 4099-0000-D080-0200-8007-045D

    Greetings!

    This is a possible corruption on the hard drive. Try step "4" as per Mister Cerb's post and download your profile to USB drive (configure to use with the Xbox 360). You may also consider this solution, with the hard drive safely removed from the Xbox, while
    you try download profile from LIVE to USB drive. Then move profile from USB to hard drive.

    Post back and let us know how that goes.

    Can't install XBOX game on new XBX 360

    The hard drive can be used for saves, content downloaded from the Xbox store (games, add-ons, etc.), and 360 games installed from discs. Official hard drives also include some system files that are required to run original Xbox games as well as a handful
    of 360 games.

    the game couldnt start try downloading it game again GTA SA

    Hello,

    What country / region is your LIVE account registered in?

    What country / region are you currently living in?

    If you have a region missmatch this can cause you to get a corrupted download, if you are getting this corrupted download continuously, please delete the content that is corrupted, clear your cache, and try to download the content again. If it's being corrupted
    again, please confirm that you have an original Xbox 360 hard drive as this is an original Xbox game and can only be played on an original hard drive. 3rd party hard drives purchased from places like eBay and Amazon marketplace do not have the emulation files
    needed to play the original Xbox games on the Xbox 360.
