Moving to Xbox One - Current Purchases transferrable? Physical Games?

dr0idness · Jul 22, 2014

My Xbox 360 is starting to go and I'm faced with an issue: Buy an Xbox One or another 360.

I know this questions been asked a million times and the answer always seems to hooking the 360 up to the One, but I won't have that capability for long by the sound of my 360. I'd really love to get an Xbox One, but I have a ton of games for the 360 that
I still play often (Skyrim, Diablo, etc.) many are on physical disc but some are downloaded games as well.

So my question is: is there any redemption ability to prove you've purchased/own a Xbox 360 game and then be able to download the game to the Xbox One? My Xbox 360 will still run and I could hook it up to the One for any transfer etc.

I've been really looking forward to getting an Xbox One, but I wasn't going to consider it until I could play 360 games on it, since there's none I am interested in on One yet… but I'm definitely not going to get one if I have to buy another 360 (as it
will be my 4th 360 - these things were not made to last)!

Thanks!

:)

Physical migration from one country to another

But then what will happen with my current Xbox LIVE account ie. my username (), my GS (12650), my Microsoft Points, my purchases DLC's and props, my Xbox GOLD subscription?

Can that new Xbox LIVE account be connected to my current Windows Live ID?

Transferring HDD from old Xbox-S, to new Xbox-S

Hi!

I'm having some questions as to whether I'd have ANY problems moving my 250GB-HDD from my current Xbox-S, to my new Xbox-S

For example: will saves be corrupted, game files corrupted, DLC corrupted?

I figured moving the HDD from a current system, to a new one, would cause issues?

Sorry but the Xbox One console is not backwards compatible so you will not be able to play 360 games on it. Also, you cannot transfer downloads to the Xbox One console.

However, any purchased DLC does belong to your gamertag so if you find yourself with the means to purchase a new 360 console in the future you can simply head to your download history to redownload them.

How do I transfer my Xbox one gaming data and purchases from one Microsoft account to another Microsoft account

You cant. Nothing is transferrable between accounts

You can redownload anything you purchase for free from your download history. The license transfer will move the licenses to a new console if you get a new one.

If the hard drive crashes, you can just redownload the content from your download history, but you would lose your game saves.

Of course there always will be die hard fanbois.... possibility that they are trolls... or shills.. but I am pleased at the number of people throwing the BS flag... I just want to be able to use my consoles in 10 years as well... especially since the
moving you're 360 live purchases aren't transferrable to the one...which means in 7 years you won't be able to transfer the one purchases to the X no lube needed.. (code name) I think if ms made your purchases transferrable to next gen it would have been
better... as opposed to knowing that at some point you will have a console that is useless when servers shut down...
