    I'd buy a 2nd XB One if I could have a secondary "Home" XBO on the same network. ...


    For example, if I have the home console in the man-cave and the other one in the family room and my friends come over.. I want to drink beer and play with my friends in the man-cave (home console) and send the kids to the family room (non-home), I don't
    think I can be signed in at both consoles so the kids can play in the family room, right?

    That is correct, it would not work well in that situation.

    Well, then I was right, I need a second home console in order not to have jump through hoops to play.

    I love Xbox but they make it difficult to make me want to buy another console. Too bad for them. I am sure that they are aware that consumers have other options as well.

    Does PS4 let you log into multiple PS4 consoles simultaneosly with the same account?? I doubt it. At least with the method we outlined above you can play on two machines with only a single game purchase, pretty generous. If gamerscore were not that important
    to you, you could create a silver account for yourself and use that on your home console to play with while the gold account is logged onto the other console.

    Gamerscore is VERY important to me, but thank you for all of your advice. I can see that you are taking my questions seriously and I appreciate it. I'll seriously consider it. When I see all of these XB deals in the media, I'm always tempted to run to the
    store and buy a second one.

    I have two xbox ones. One downstairs and another in my daughters room. I have hers set to my home system and the downstairs one I have it set so I'm login all time time. I buy all my games digital so we can play the same game with each other. Works great

    Hey dam,I have not tried this yet but i bet if you had that scenario and your buds come over for beers and games you could probably switch the family room one to home and log into your GT in the cave..I honestly don't see why that wouldn't work ..

    That would work, but could be a hassle having to physical switch the consoles if you were doing it frequently.

    One thing you can only set your home system 3 times a year. So watch out with the switching

    I'd buy a 2nd XB One if I could have a secondary "Home" XBO on the same network. Otherwise it'll be a PS4.

    Why do you need 2 home consoles, as it stands, you can have 2 consoles that have full access to everything tied to your Live account.

    Why can't two machines be paired!? I don't get it. Maybe they can. Seems like an easy fix! GRRRRR
