  1. Redeeming 360 games on Xbox one


    I have a gold account and an Xbox One and it is advertised that you can redeem and play both Xbox One and Xbox 360 games. However I am never able to redeem any of the 360 games on my Xbox One and when I try to do so I receive a massage saying "Your account
    is unable to make this type of purchase on Xbox.com. Please complete this transaction from your Xbox" I don't have access to a 360. Is there a way to fix this at all?

    :)

    Cannot purchase "free" 360 games on Xbox one or Xbox.com

    It has always been like that not unless there will be an update regarding in redeeming Xbox 360 games with gold on the website. Xbox 360 marketplace has a different structure than on Xbox One Store. Xbox 360 games with gold on the website will need a payment
    method. In Xbox 360 console, you won't need one. Currently, you can't redeem Xbox 360 games with gold using Xbox One console and still under progress about redeeming Xbox 360 games with gold on Xbox One console. Either get the games using an Xbox 360 console,
    or get the games on the website with a payment method.

    x1 BC offer not valid in your region?? help

    Hello OllyBongo,

    Can you try redeeming the Xbox 360 game either on Xbox.com (Xbox Games Store) or an Xbox 360 console first? After that, it should show up in "My Games & Apps" under "Ready to Install" on
    your Xbox One.

    Let us know how you get on.

    Redeeming 360 games on Xbox one

    If you're on a child account, the only way would be through a 360 console.

    14 day xbox live gold trial redeemed but not active

    That's your mistake

    Redeeming an 14 day gpld trial enables only full gold on xbox one for 2 weeks

    However on 360 it has restrixtions including game ones

    If you had redeemed it on xbox 360 it wouldn't be an issue

    As you would.be within the limits of the 360 and the trial

    But since you redeem it on the one you can't as it's non restricted which is not compatible with 360

    Alan Wake issue

    Hello Emperor,

    For some Xbox 360 codes, when redeemed on Xbox One, the game can only be downloaded on Xbox One and not on an Xbox 360 console. I'm not entirely sure why, but redeeming on the Xbox One means that it does not show up in your Xbox 360 download history so the
    older console does not recognise that you own, and can thus download, the game.

    You'll still be able to download and play the game on Xbox One.

    I hope this clarifies things.

    Games with gold not working

    redeemed 360 games are yours to keep forever, no gold required once you have redeemed them.

    games with gold

    360 games - yours to keep forever regardless of sub

    xbox one games - only usable with an active sub

    been this way for years

    Xbox Games with Gold

    Thanks, I have been redeeming Xbox 360 games on my Xbox 360 to then install on my Xbox One. Do you know how Game Sharing works on Xbox? Can I share BC games from my Xbox One to a friends Xbox 360?.
