Now Xbox 360 owners can build up their Xbox One game library

Today, Major Nelson announced that you can now start to build your Xbox One game library through your Xbox 360. Apparently, you have always been able to do this through the Games with Gold program. For Xbox 360 owners, this may make it easier to transition to Xbox One.

According to Major Nelson:   

“Starting today, Xbox Live Gold Members who don’t have an Xbox One yet can start building their library of Xbox One games directly from Xbox 360 by taking advantage of the Games With Gold program.   You have always been able to do it this via the web and my monthly Games With Gold posts. But now, on  your Xbox 360 console head to the special Games With Gold section from the link on the home page of the console and you can  ‘purchase’ it there.”
