The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
So I bought Streets of Rage 2 some time ago, had my 360 go all RROD on me, got a replacement, and set about redownloading all of my old stuff.
I've downloaded the full game of Streets of Rage 2, but when I run it, it keeps playing the trial version. I deleted the game, downloaded it again (the full version both times), but it still will only play the Trial version.
So then I deleted both instances of it off of my hard drive (the trial and the full), redownloaded it again, but it still will only play the Trial version.
Arcade tells me that I can download this as many times as I want because I already purchased it, but the game won't fun in the full version.
When you got your replacement console, did you do the license transfer? I remember when I got my replacement back, I had to run that tool. After that, it was mostly a matter of redownloading everything, except that if the data is already on your hard drive, it will only correct the license info, it won't re-download the entire game, which means it's pretty quick, even if you have to manually select and redownload each item.
Yeah I did the license transfer. At least Street Fighter II HD Remix, Symphony of the Night, and all of my Rock Band songs were re-downloaded without issue.

Streets of Rage seems to be the only one.
