Xbox 360 Game Purchase

You cannot purchase xbox 360 games on the xbox one yet. To get an xbox 360 game, you have to purchase from the xbox 360 store on xbox.com or on an xbox 360 console. Once you have purchased the game, then the game should show in the ready to install section
in my games and apps.

Hey there,

For Xbox 360 purchases made through the Xbox One console or through the Xbox Marketplace on Xbox.com, a credit card on file is required. Additionally, Microsoft Account currency cannot be used for Xbox 360 game purchases outside of the Xbox 360 console.

Hope this helps clear up the situation.

Do you by any chance have a child account. If so, you cannot purchase Xbox 360 games on the Xbox One or xbox.com. The only way you can purchase those games is by using an Xbox 360.

If you have an adult account, then make sure you are using a credit card to purchase the Xbox 360 games.
