Hi Guys,

So I recently started playing Xbox 360. I quite enjoy it to be honest.(And I am a PC Gamer)ssssshhhh..

Anyway. What I was wondering. a Friend of mine have been playing for quite some time now, he convinced me to buy some games, and now he wants to 'borrow' them with a License Transfer. Have any of you ever tried it?
Any Tips or Tricks?

Cheers,
And Thank you in advance.

huh?
Xbox 360 games don't have any 'borrow protection' so not sure what licence he is referring to?
Unless he wants access to your xbox live account
 
Sounds like he wants to use your xbl account.
If you have the disk then the game works.
Unless it's a digital download game like Tomb Raider which only works on a single Xbox.

Licenses are linked to the Xbox LIVE account and the Xbox 360 that downloaded it. So, all accounts can play a downloaded game on an Xbox, regardless of which account downloaded it, or the Xbox LIVE account that downloaded it, will have the license to play it even on another Xbox 360, as long as you log in with that account and stay connected on LIVE. You can transfer licenses from one Xbox to another, but be aware that you can only do this "once every four months".

I'd be wary of doing this, or lending your Xbox LIVE account to a friend, as that'll expose the password/security of your account, and of course, you wouldn't be able to log in at the same time.

Thanks for the Reply guys.

Okay yes it is a Digital download. I bought the game from XBL, now he want my Account details to download the game. Once he downloaded it log back in to his Account and play online multiplayer with me on the same game.

I will have a look at the link thanks.
