i have an xbox live membership and yadda yadda yadda

im trying to download the trailer for dantes inferno, when i click download a box comes up and says that im not allowed to download stuff with this rating. i go to the family settings and find that the all games rated m and below are allowed to be downloaded, for good measure i change it to all games to be safe despite dantes inferno itself being rated M

anyway ive tried it again and it wont work, i get the same message, i tried doing it thru my sisters account with the same settings and it still wont work, also im seventeen years old, its not like im trying to lie or anything why am i being stopped

thank you in advance

Until you are 18 you will continue to be unable to do so. i'm assuming you're g-tag is set to a child's account.

aye thats a slightly funny thing, the games 17+ but xboxlives policy is basically if your not 18 you cant download mature rated games...erm I dont know why, I think its a blanket policy to avoid trouble with the different laws of different countries by just having one for them all, it sucks I know dude but good for you for not lying about your age, its refreshing to come across what might be an honest case with threads like this

You either gotta wait, or do what I did and make a new GT. 35k gamescore down the drain.

You could always just make a new Silver account to download M-rated content.

I have read that if you go the xbox.com and download it from there it should work. I have never tested that, but I know people that have gotten around the child account setting by doing it this way.
