Hey I have an XBL Silver membership, but I am not allowed to download Mature rated game demos. I tried family settings, console settings, XBL settings, passcodes, etc, but it seems to me nothing will allow me to get acces to mature content.

I thind this weird because on my XBL family settings, i am allowed to access mature content, but for some reason I still can't download it.

I have a feeling it has something to do with the fact that when I signed up for XBL, I put in my real birthday, and I'm only 16 so I'm thinking since I'm not 18, I'm not legally allowed to download mature content. Here's, the thing, what about passcodes? I set a passcode, but theres no where on the demo download screen that says enter passcode or something, so that does me no good. I would think a passcode would be to override something, but whatever.

I'm thinking that to be able to download this content I have to be 18, so I was thinking maybe I could change the birthdate I selected when I originally created my gamertag/account, but I don't see any options to do so. Can anyone help me out? Maybe they know how to change the birthday, or know of a way to get mature content that I'm not thinking of?

Thanks.

Btw, my gamertag is "nickdiy07" but I doubt itll do anyone any good since I'm only a silver member.

maybe you have to upgrade your account to an adult account?

Just make another silver account and set it aside for Mature game downloads and demos :)

If you download the game content for mature games then you'll also be able to play it on youre other one :)

Edit*- Also, say that you were born by atleast '88. Im 16 aswell and Im glad that I originally put it that Im older than 18 or Id be screwed right now :lol:

Yes it is all about the birthdate entered. Cannot be changed once created.
