Hey guys, sorry if this is know already but I thought I would share as my brother and I have saved so much money on video games. Basically, when purchasing a game digitally, it can be played by two users on two separate consoles.

The link below will describe how it works and I am more than happy to answer any questions.

It means my brother and I can split the cost of purchasing a game we both want. Also, if he buys a game that I was never going to pay for but don't mind playing, I can still download it and play.

Hope this all makes sense!

    You used to be able to use one game on 4 consoles at once a few years ago. Which was useful because I had three PS3's in the house.
    But then they reduced it to two because people were sharing the games with three of their friends who lived in different properties!. So then I had to decide which two to put the games on which was slightly annoying!

    Same thing can be done with Xbox one games.
