    Is there a way to download an XBOX game with a PC and then transfer to the console via USB


    With the advent of gamepass / everything else being subscription/cloud based, it would be helpful to those of us in rural areas if we could take a computer to a fast connection to download (huge) XBOX titles to an external HD and then install them on the
    console. In my example, my connection tops out at 6mbit... it takes literal days to install AAA titles on the console this way.

    But if I could take my laptop to work / a faster connection it would help immensely. Dragging the console around to do this is a sucky solution / doesn't really fly in an office setting.

    Is there any way to do this / any way to suggest that it be implemented?

    TIA

    :)

    With your employers permission bring your Xbox in. It will connect to most monitors or your can stream the screen to a TV.

    When Xbox Live started our group bought another Xbox and set it up as a Return to Wolfenstein server on the company T1 after hours.
    I mean, I think it's cool that your employer doesn't freak out when they see a gaming console on their LAN... but that's already been answered in my original post..

    Battlefield 3 update remote download

    Hello, i dont think there is anyway to download and then transfer via pc,

    However it will be possible to download the update from a friends console using your profile or hard drive and then transfering it via USB, as the update is a marketplace download.

    (just note that if you use a external hard drive and download it onto this from a friends xbox obviously you wont need to transfer via usb)

    Hi there,

    the Xbox Live account for in this case the Xbox 360 can only be downloaded from Xbox Live and transferred to a usb device via an actual Xbox 360 console, I'm afraid there are no other ways.
