    Same game on multiple consoles


    Hello people, how you guys are doing?

    Well, I have already made an topic about this subject, and the answer was what I was expecting, but I need to be sure, so let's get to the point:

    I have an xbox 360 console (wow seriously? = | ) and I was thinking, I love to play GTA V online, I have bought it on Xbox live and downloaded on my Xbox' HDD.

    So a thought came to my mind: It would be lovely to play GTA V with my brother online.

    Now, if I buy another Xbox 360 console, can I download again this game on the new console so my brother and I could play online without needing to buy another GTA V?

    How I've said before, this isn't the first time I do a post with this subject, last time, the lovely sir Mr. onyx62is told me I could do it, I would only have to download every new game that I buy first on the old console, then I would have to play
    with my profile on the new one, while my brother play on the old one.

    Very well, so I would like to know, is that really true? I'm going to buy an new console if it's true, so it would be good to be sure...

    One more thing, I wouldn't breaking any rule by doing it, right? I don't want to get banned...

    Thank you guys for the attention, I love you all.

    Same game on multiple consoles :D

    AC4 w/ multiple users on same console

    One fix you could try is one of you have the save file on the hard drive & the other has it on the Cloud. If you want, you can start that now, but to avoid starting the game from scratch, you can copy a save file to another place (hard drive or cloud.)

    To do this, follow these steps (copying from Hard Drive to CloudSame game on multiple consoles :)

    • Press the Guide button & scroll to the right to settings. Then go System Settings/Storage/Hard Drive/Games & Apps.
    • Select the game, and you should see save files. They'll be only KB's in size. It should also show the gamertag for that save. When you select it, it will also show the date it was last saved, so you'll know which is the most current.
    • Select the save file itself & choose Copy.
    It will ask where you want to copy to, choose Cloud. Voila!

    Next time you play the game, you can then choose Hard Drive for your saves, and then next time your wife logs on, she can choose Cloud Same game on multiple consoles :)

    As long and you both keep to those choices then there'll be no overwrite Same game on multiple consoles :)

    Hope this helps!

    Yes that is true. It's how the licenses are set up to work with games.

    As long as you're not exploiting the license transfer tool to share games, you should not get banned. What you're doing will be fine.

    Multiple accounts and same console

    I can't quite get my head round this one. You should only have the xbox set to home Xbox for the main account and the others gamertags should be able to play.

    Is it an age thing? Is the game for instance an 18 and over game and all the kids accounts have their real D.O.B? Coz that could stop it, i think.

    Other than that Just try having the account that bought the games being set as home and leave the others.

    Multiple accounts and same console

    This sound like something wrong. It should allowed all six profile should have access to those games on the same console.

    DLC on multiple consoles in the same house

    If you have multiple accounts trying to access the content, it would be best to purchase it on both consoles.

    When you purchase content it is tied to the gamertag that purchased it as well as the console it was purchased on. The gamertag license allows only the purchasing gamertag to be able to access the content from any console as long as it is signed into Live.
    The console license is what allows other gamertags to access the content, but the license can only be on one console at a time.
