using friends xbox live account to download from the marketplace...? will it stay ?

[Americanpierg]

can i use my friends xbox live account to download the arcade games he already paid for since he can download it an unlimited amount of times? will the games still work if i change back to my account or no.

small issue... the 1st machine will be able to play the games without any issue. the 2nd machine (and up) will have to have him connect to live with his gamertag. all other accounts will only be able to play the demo

No, if you could....these would be all over the WEB and people could share them with the TRANSFER KIT. Spend your $5.

Well, as long as the GamerTag that bought the XBLA game is currently on the hard drive, any other GamerTags can play the full version of the game. As soon as you remove the "owner" GamerTag off the hard drive, though, the other GamerTags will only be able to play the demo version of the XBLA game.

It's actually a pretty nice system as I transfer my GamerTag to my buddy's 360 quite a bit and it gives him a chance to play the full versions of the arcade games I purchased. Plus, on my 360, my wife can play the arcade games under her GamerTag as well.

And now you know...
