Hi everyone,


I just purchased 1600 xbox live points.
So, what is the best xbla game to buy? What about Lara Croft ?
I want something with high replay value. Thanks.

i was wondering... can we do a XBLA games sharing like PSN sharing?

i think should be possible, as I got 2 accounts on my xbox, 1 SG and 1 US

downloaded the trial Bionic Commando:Rearmed using my US account while playing games
then activate the BC:Rearmed using my SG account which still got points left
then i finished the full games on my US account tongue.gif

another example is my SG account was from another console, purchased castle crasher & lumines b4, now I transfer the account to my current new console, and I still can play the Castle Crasher as full version with my US account, but not lumines hmm.gif

wonder if it's possible for other games too, and is there download or activate limits?

it will be great if we can do XBLA game sharing, we can save a lot from there

That's also called piracy, and on the PSN it's a breach of the terms of usage.

XBLA games can be played by as many accounts as there are on the machine that originally downloaded it. Playing the game on another machine requires the XBLA account that downloaded it to be logged on to that machine.

edit: unless you get a license transfer from MS (1 per year AFAIK)

i won't call it piracy, it's more of a grey area or loophole exploit
how many of us gotten the free games from the MW2 trial version bugs?

have a look at garage sales, there's multiple threads on PSN sharing, if it's really piracy, why aren't the mods taking any action? hmm.gif
maybe bcos we are still buying "orginals", hence they close one eye? hmm.gif

it's piracy because dlc isn't meant to be shared like that.

u cant do that in xblive, all the DLC(including xbla games) are machine id bound not user id bound. when u copied and transfered them to another machine, they will became "demo" or wont run at all...

check your email "inbox" folder or may "junk" folders... "digital" means they will send u the codes via email rather the card via post.
