Question For XB1 useres

I'm still not 100% sure how the XB1 compatibility works. Can you download a game by entering a disk, then give your disk to someone else to do the same? Or does it register that the disk has already been used and downloaded or reached a limit? Because if the first is the case, anyone could just trade games or even start a local redbox of renting to download. But the second would be horrible for buying used games.

    If you don't own the game digitally then yes a disc must be used. A disc is always required to be in the one to play if not owned digitally

      It just lets you download a digital copy when you put the disc in. The disc must remain in the console for the digital copy to work. You can lend it to you friend, but because a disc must always be in the machine, only one of you can play it(just like if you lent the actual disc) A word of caution. MS announced they are releasing all compatible games digitally for s price anyway, so it would likely be cheaper to do this rather than buying second hand, and the developers then get some money.

      • same way games work now. you put in the disc, the game installs. when you want to play the game you insert the disc.
