XBOX 360 disc will not download

What's the specific game name?

Is it an xbox 360 game disc xbox one disc or a digital download?

Hi,

The Xbox 360 games download from Xbox Live, the disc is just used to prove ownership. You will still need to insert the disc before you play.

Xbox One and Series titles need the disc during the install as the disc is where the game is installed from.

The reason why Xbox 360 games download is because they need a special version of the game which only available as a download.

Try downloading the game. I haven't tried on a 360 but you can download games you do not own from the Microsoft store and then run them if the disc is in.

Xbox 360 original Xbox BC requires an official working hard drive. This applies to discs and downloads.

It is, but you may need to download the update from xbox.com to a disc, then download the disc to your xbox 360 to play original xbox games, thats how i got Morrowind to work

Backwards compatible 360 games aren't read off the disc.

Instead, if the Xbox One detects the security sector of the 360 disc properly, it'll download the game in a special emulator container from the Xbox Live Marketplace.

No actual game data is used from the disc, so as long as the security sector on the disc is intact and readable, the scratches on the disc don't matter. Even games that stopped working on the 360 can be played on the Xbox One again because of this.

So make sure that your console is properly connected online when you insert the 360 disc, so the console can download the game from the Marketplace.
