Xbox Games

Even if you don't own an Xbox 360, you

can use the Xbox Games app to get games

and socialize with your friends. You can

view your game progress, earn awards and

achievements, and see which friends are

online and what they're playing.

And if you want to let your friends know

what you're up to, use the Share charm to

send links to your favorite games, your

profile, and achievements.

You need to sign in with a Microsoft account (formerly called Windows Live ID) to buy or download games from

Xbox Games. Here’s how:

1. From the Start screen, tap or click Games.

2. Do one of the following:

 Click Sign in (in the upper-right corner).

 Swipe in from the right edge of the screen and tap Settings, then tap or click Account. Click

3. Type your Microsoft account info (email and password) and tap or click Save.

4. Scroll to one of the following stores:

 Windows game store Games you can play on Surface.

 Xbox 360 game store Games you can play on your Xbox 360 console. Games that you buy are

added to your console’s download queue and automatically downloaded the next time your

console connects to the Xbox Live service.

Tips

 Tap or click a game to see options like buy, play, and explore. Open the Search charm to find a particular

game.

 Set a beacon to let your friends know that you want to play a game.

modes, and connecting with friends.
