Hi,
My son (age 10) has Xbox 360 and enjoys Minecraft. Him and his cousin (age 11) wanted to play online so we arranged 3 months of Xbox Live Gold. Just spent a frustrating hour trying to get the online game play working and failing! I am total noob at XBox Live so hope some more knowledgeable people on here have some ideas.
We sorted out all the permissions etc... and the final stumbling block was that everytime we accepted an invite to play Minecraft the game would start but in the demo mode and it seemed like I was expected to pay £13+ to download the game and continue. We have the full (and legal) game on disc and that was of course spinning in the drive at the time. We have never had any problems playing it before locally. My nephew also is running a fully legal disc version of Minecraft.
Any ideas as to what's going on? Have I missed a crucial privacy or family setting some where (i did check all these)?
Thanks
Mark
