TurnByTurnPwn · May 21, 2016

Get message that I need a credit card on file to download xbox 360 live 'free' games. I do have a credit card on file is the problem. I do not get this message when downloading the 'xbox one' games to my xbox one. Just the xbox live gold 360 games. Suggestions?

Games with gold. Live Trial

Activated the 2 Week Xbox Live Trial and downloaded the Deer God I could get Tomb Raider for free to. I thought free games with gold only worked with Paid Subscriptions

They also work with the free subscriptions so people can try out the features & any games there offering before they spend $50 for a year of xbox live gold, But once your sub runs out you will no longer be able to play said game's you download on your xbox one

If you have an xbox 360 and downloaded any of the free xbox 360 game's with gold and your sub runs out you can still play your xbox 360 game's you downloaded even if you don't ever renew for xbox live gold again

xbox one will just lock you out till you renew your subscription and then once your subscription is renewed you can play all your free game's you downloaded & bought for free thru xbox live gold

Games whith Live Gold

I can not download the free games of live gold, is not appearing the icon in the video game xbox 360 what I do

the only way to get the backwards compatible games directly through the console is to have a credit card or paypal on the account (assuming there's a card associated with your paypal account). while it is a free item, there is still a purchase transaction
that has to happen when downloading through xbox.com or the Xbox One console at this time.

Have you tried on both the console and the website?

You may also want to go to
http://commerce.microsoft.com to make sure all of your information is correct.

Other than that, you may want to contact support and speak to billing. 1-800-4my-xbox if you're in the US/Canada or
support.xbox.com/contact-us

No, you have to go here for the games with gold
http://www.xbox.com/live/games-with-gold?xr=shellnav (make sure you are logged into your gold account), then scroll down to the Xbox 360 game, and download to Xbox 360, it should then show up in your ready to install section on the Xbox one.

Are you sure that is the cause? I have Xbox 1 and 360. Both bought in US and i have US live account. I live in India now. I have no problem downloading the Games with Gold on Xbox1. But i am unable to download games with gold for 360. I could not download
last month's mafia and this months just cause.

Second, can we download Xbox 360 games for Xbox one OR NOT? WITHOUT 360 CONSOLE????

Yes but first you need to go to
www.xbox.com/.../games-with-gold and select “Download From Xbox Store” and then “Download To Xbox 360”. This will register the game to your account which will then show up on the ready to install list one your Xbox One.

You have always needed a Xbox live gold sub at least in order to play any downloaded Xbox One Games with Gold but you don't need gold to play any downloaded original Xbox or Xbox 360 Games with Gold.

It has always been that way & nothing has changed recently.

Theory of Game

Hey there. Sorry you misunderstood the offer, but the terms of the offer are on display. On the Games with Gold page (www.xbox.com/.../games-with-gold) at the bottom, it reads
as this:

"Games with Gold offer for paid Gold members only; active Gold membership required to play downloaded Xbox One games."

Xbox 360 games downloaded through Games with Gold are yours to keep. Should you re-subscribe to Xbox Live, your Games with Gold on the Xbox One will become available to play again.

Hopes this helps.
