The Xbox 360 has quickly become one of the best-selling video game systems ever released. If you are a lucky owner, I want to show you an easy way to find new games and movies by using Xbox 360 downloads.

It seems to be a common question that we receive these days – ‘How do I download Xbox 360 games?’ We thought it would be a good idea to cover the different options you have so you can start downloading games for your Xbox 360 right away.

Option #1 – Download XBOX 360 Games

You first option is to search for “free xbox game downloads” and see what you can find. There are all sorts of websites that advertise having free downloads for the xbox and other systems. However, there are a few things you need to know before you press that ‘download now’ button.

These websites have gotten a pretty reputation because of all the viruses and spyware floating around. They aren’t monitored by anyone so there are plenty of infected files that come from these websites. Many have been shut down in the past year because of this problem – you can never be exactly sure of what you are downloading.

The second complaint is that the download speeds are incredibly slow. These websites don’t invest any money in quality web hosting or database maintenance, so the downloads are extremely sluggish. You can literally wait over a day for just one game to finish.

Even worse, many of the files are “corrupt”, which means that they don’t actually work. It’s a big pain in the ‘you know what’ to wait over a day for a game to finish downloading only to find out it doesn’t even work.

For the most part it is recommended to stay away from these sites. They put your computer at risk and can waste a good chunk of your time.

Option #2 – Download XBOX 360 Games

This next option lets you download Xbox 360 games without having to worry about viruses, slow download speeds or download files that don’t work.

There are Xbox 360 download websites that offer memberships that allow you to download unlimited full Xbox games along with movies, TV shows and music. There is a fee to join (about $50) and you can then log-in and download a new game anytime you want.

The membership isn’t expensive and gives you lifetime access to Xbox 360 downloads. The selection is kept up-to-date so you can even choose from new releases or games that have gone out of stock in the stores.

Since the companies that run these websites are in it to make a profit, they make sure that their customers stay happy. The download speeds they offer are fast, the files always work and the selection is huge. The service takes about 5 minutes to set-up and is completely legal and protected from any viruses.

Use the link at the bottom of this article if you want to learn how to start a free trial at a couple of the most popular xbox 360 download websites. The software you need to be able to use the games on your system is included at no extra cost.

I’m always a little surprised that there aren’t more people using this type of service. It’s a lot cheaper and easier than buying games at the stores. I imagine that many people just aren’t aware of the xbox download services that are now available.

Once you start using Xbox 360 downloads you can quickly build up a massive library of games and movies for your system. A word of caution though – it’s highly addictive! Happy gaming!
