Games with 2 Games on same Console

FrankZweissig · Dec 1, 2018

Hi,

I downloaded Forza Horizon with one profile. Then I created a second profile for my kid. How can I play the same games I downloaded with profle 1 also with profile 2 on the same console?

Thanks,

Frank.

What 2 player (same console) games are there?

Yeah I know what you mean, Bootstrap... and thanks for the suggestions.

Its one of those things where its not that the demand isn't there, its that there is no money in it for the publishers/devs. Nowadays its about families owning 2-3 consoles and 2-3 copies of the same game to play each other on though internet connections.

I think Left4Dead might be a good choice as its pickup & play. Fable is too in-depth to play co-op for a guest just popping around.

It annoyed me when Forza got rid of the local scoreboards as that was an excellent feature to have for a racing game. Again though it was all about multiplayer leaderboards in the end.

Hello ladies and jellybabies,

I've decided that seeing as my flat is nearing completion, it may be time to lift the antisocial ban on my living room and invite some Oomans to my place.

With that in mind each guest will be required to compliment my DIY skills and new washing machine and flat pack couch, as well as indulge in some serious 360 2 player sessions.

Now normally I stick to single player games due to enjoying the experience, but even I wouldn't force people to sit and watch me playing Oblivion whilst dressed in my smalls, bumblebee slippers and safari hat... although I would consider it an honour for
them. So please could you fine chaps recommend some awesome 2 player same-screen games for all to enjoy.

I know the obvious one such as FIFA and Forza, but does CoD4 have 2 player mode or is it just multiplayer? Nothing too indepth like an RPG or strategy game.

Log in with the account that owns the game and set that xbox one as your My home xbox and then both accounts can launch the game and play it. This method also shares xbox live gold membership as well.

Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

Select System > Settings > Personalization, and then select
My home Xbox.

Do either of the following:

Select Make this my home Xbox to designate the console as your home Xbox.

Select Remove this as my home Xbox to remove the designation.

Hi there,

If you're trying to play the games co-op, not all games have local co-op ability, sometimes referred to as couch co-op. Forza, while it has online co-op, it does not have local co-op.

There are sites out there that will discuss which games have co-op ability. If you want to play them split screen on the same console, look for games that say they support local co-op.

that's actually kinda tough...there are plenty of multiplayer co-op games, but couch single player co-op is a bit of a dying breed unfortunately (as well as an oxymoron). left 4 dead, any halo, army of two, fable, and any lego are definites. i think gears
of war, crackdown, saints row, and far cry 4 might have split screen single player as well...

Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

To fix this, please perform a power cycle on your console by following the steps below:

POWERCYCLE CONSOLE

1. Turn off your console by holding the Xbox button on the front of the console for approximately 10 seconds. The console will turn off.

2. Turn your console back on by pressing the Xbox button on the console or the Xbox button on your controller.

If that didn't work resetting the console keeping games and apps will be the next option. Don't worry because as long as you're connected to Xbox Live your saved progress, games, will not be deleted. It will remove all of your accounts but you can add all of them later on.

Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

Select Profile & system > Settings > System > Console info.

Select Reset console.

Reset and keep my games & apps.
