    Using single Xbox live gold account for all family members on single xbox360 console


    Is it possible?

    I have one xbox live gold subscription assigned to one profile on my xbox360, and want to share it with 3 other profiles on the same console. I know, it is possible for xbox One, but seems not possible for xbox360.

    Is anybody able to confirm/verify, what is the microsoft policy here?

    :)

    If that is the case who gets to use their gold account on other machines? They've clearly said that. Just like now, your live subscription follows you to whatever Xbox console you use. So who on that original console can take their account to another console?

    I think so yes but for a single xbox, it takes the single live account and all users can access features behind the paywall as if they had gold on that console.

    arthurdentpc has 3 xbox's tho, and the old "family" bundle allowed each user to effectively have their own gold membership, so gold on each user which translated to gold on each console, now its gold to anyone on the single xbox....

    So I assume on single xbox families the new system is much better, but on multiple xbox families its not as good. Its not super clear tho how this new gold system will work on xbox one, but it does read like arthur is shafted rather unfairly in this new scenario.

    yes, only the One lets you share gold across other users on the same console. On a 360 each user has to have his or her own gold membership to play online.

    Xbox live gold help please

    Ok, so have you bought a single Xbox live gold membership?

    If so, that is the issue, although all five accounts are registered to the same console, it doesn't mean the gold attached to a single accounts will pass over onto the other 4.

    There is an option when you buy a gold membership from Microsoft using your console to buy a family membership which would enable four accounts to play online and show as being a paid gold member.

    No Worries, TheDigitalDoom.. Have fun with your new Xbox360 console & Xbox Live... =)

    By the way, the $59 Gold Subscription is for a single Gamertag & the $99 Family Gold Subscription, gives you 4 Gamertags etc... From memory, I think it's 2 Adult & 2 Child or Teen accounts..

    XBox Live for the family

    They either remain a free member but put up with usage restrictions, share a single Gold account (which is technically against the Terms of Use) or pay for a Gold membership of their own.

    However you have a fourth option, the Gold Family pack. This offers four Gold membership at a reduced cost
