Long story, so bear with me.
In the summer, I had to create a second gamertag for my 360. While running the new GT, I could play any of the Arcade games that I had downloaded on my old GT, such as Uno/Billiards.
A few weeks ago, my 360 gave up and Game kept the old HDD, so I downloaded (for a 2nd time, for free) the Arcade games I had bought using the new GT. Last night, I reactivated my old gamertag and downloaded the games I was missing from the old GT. And here I hit a problem, which I cannot understand.
If I use my old gamertag, I can play any of the Arcade games on my HDD - the ones I downloaded last night from the old GT, plus things like Lumines, which I downloaded under the new profile.
However, If I revert back to my new gamertag, I can't play any of the games I downloaded under my old gamertag - except the trial versions.
I also noted that I had some MS points on the old tag, so I downloaded two arcade games to use them up. Guess what? When I switched back to the new gamertag, I could play the full versions.
Has anyone any thoughts on this? Is there a way to make all the games playable again on my new GT? The games/new profile are stored on the HDD.
