xbox Live account

Dr. Dodger

So there are 2 xbox 360's in my house. Me and my brother have one & I have a Gold subscription for xbox live. My question is can my brother hook his up to xbox live on my subscription? He would be going on with the same connection.

Probably a very short answer to this but worth a shot me thinks.

you cant both go online at the same time anyway, not with the same account. I've tested putting my account on my brothers xbox (he lives in a different house) It took about 10 minutes to transfer across then I could use it on his, so I thought "cool, now whenever I'm at his I can just log on" but when I got home and turned mine on I had to transfer it back, which took another 10 minutes. So yes you can use the same account at different times, but you have to wait 10 minutes everytime u turn it on... I suggest ur brother gets another 12 month membership. If you can afford two xbox 360s then you can afford two subscriptions.

Thanks for that dude. He'll just have to do without :P

If you store the profile on a memory card rather than on the hard disk then it won't take so long when moving from one machine to another, but you can still only be online in one place at a time.
