    Xbox 360 Games not able to be downloaded on Xbox One


    This has been a very serious issue ever since Microsoft first introduced backwards compatibility, and yet nothing has been done to try and fix it. The issue is that child accounts, even child accounts OVER the age of 15, cannot download any backwards compatible
    titles. This means that the Xbox's main demographic is restricted from playing backwards compatible titles, all because they put in the correct date of birth when first creating their account. I tried to resolve this issue by changing my accounts date of birth,
    as well as deleting the unused parent account that was connected to my main account, but it seems that neither of these methods work. The only two ways of being able to download Xbox 360 Games, onto the Xbox One, is through actually purchasing an Xbox 360.
    This also means that for 360 Games With Gold to be purchased on the Xbox One, it requires the parent account to have Xbox Live Gold. This is a very frustrating issue, especially since Microsoft has allowed us to see the current 360 Games with Gold available
    on the Xbox Homepage, knowing full well that a large amount of players can't even download this game they're being told is "available to all Gold members" and is "free of charge". This whole experience is making me wonder whether the Xbox Backwards Compatibility
    program has been more of a punishment for teenage players rather than a reward.

    :)

    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.

    Xbox 360 Games not able to be downloaded on Xbox One

    Well it's a legal issue

    If you want xbox 360 games with gold you need to comply with the rules of the marketplace

    One of them . is parental.settings

    Xbox one parental settings don't apply to 360 games because there is no unrestricted setting and no you cannot change the age of an account once set

    Your only options are use a parental account or use an xbox 360 to download it

    In order to get any content the users must follow the terms and conditions set by the xbox live

    For 360 games

    A you need to have parental.permissjons and no xbox one unrestricted settings don't apply that is required by law

    That parental settings is needed to verify only can be done on 360

    B have a payment method on file if purchasing from the wrbportal

    Yes buying from the xbox one is using the webportal

    I can't download games with gold X Box One games in the Microsoft store page

    Hello,

    please be aware that you are not able to download XBOX ONE games to your XBOX 360.

    Some 360 titles has backward compatibility, which means you can play them on your XBOX ONE, but that does not work the other way.

    XBOX ONE games can only be played on XBOX ONE consoles.

    However, all your claimed XBOX 360 games should be able to download to your 360.

    Downloading Xbox 360 Games With Gold

    Hi, if you have access to an Xbox 360 it's fairly simple, you start the download on the 360 and then cancel the download and the game will show as ready to install on your Xbox One, not elegant but it works.

    The 360 side of the store on the Xbox One has some issues still and I've never been able to download any of the 360 games either other than starting the download on my 360 as described above.

    Can't download xcom through Xbox live gold

    Hey there all,

    Not all Xbox 360 games are able to be purchased on the Xbox One console. In this particular case you would need to purchase the game on an Xbox 360 console or on Xbox.com. Once you purchase the game on the website as FearedNightmare suggested, you'll be
    able to download the game from the Ready to Install section on the Xbox One console.

    Still can't download GWG 360 games on Xbox One even after newest update

    A child's account cannot acquire the Xbox 360 games from an Xbox one or xbox.com. If you have an Xbox 360, you should be able to download the games on there. If you want to download the Xbox 360 GWG on xbox one or xbox.com you will have to make your son
    an adult account. Sorry that's just the way it is until Microsoft changes it.
