Problem with Xbox 360?!
360 downloaded games are read as trial games.
Let me explain. I got this used Xbox 360 from gamestop. Then I attached my 60GB hard drive (formerly from my previous Xbox 360 that was sold) onto the new..well, used one. You see, I realized later that this wasn't an original xbox 360. It was a Kinect Xbox 360. It was the silver disk tray that tipped me off (yeah, I shoulda noticed that earlier). Okay, when I play disc games, there's no problem. And downloaded games work ok. But certain downloaded features (like Darth Vader in SC4) don't work in some games, while the games I bought online on my last xbox 360 are read by the Kinect 360 as Trial Games, and yet when I go online, they are read and played as normal games already purchased! I don't get it! Why does my system read those games as trial games offline but doesn't do it when I'm online? Can someone help me out on this?

Re: Problem with Xbox 360?!
Maybe because it needs to verify the game every time you're online to avoid sharing it? Or maybe some bug from old to new transition, I didn't even know the new 360s accepted original drives.

Triggerheart Exelica Ultra Ball Zuma Bought em and they worked well before I switched over the hard drive to this..Kinect xbox. What was the point of the kinect anyway? To make more money? The xbox just needed one or two upgrades. Not some motion sensor thing! Sorry, I was thinking aloud there.

You need to transfer the licenses to your new Xbox. You can only do this once a year.

Nyokou is right, you need to transfer the licenses to your new xbox. I had to do it for my new one, and everything worked like a charm

Re: Problem with Xbox 360?!
Nyokou is right, but I'm got to explain a little bit of what happens so you can get a grip on what is going on.
When you purchase content, it connects to your Xbox Live account (be it gold or silver) and your Xbox itself. In order to ensure it's actually you playing the content, you need to access at least one of those licenses (the account HAS to be connected to Xbox Live in order to be called upon). When you got your new Xbox, you lost access to the second license. If you weren't signed online, your downloaded games would have no license to verify it was your content. The DRM tool posted above will take all your licenses you own and switch them from your old Xbox to your new Xbox allowing you to play all your content offline.
