My son has an xbox 360, so do I.
We have an xbox live family subscription.
He is unable to go online with need for speed most wanted because he is too young for an origin account, and mine will not allow him on due to his age as well.
Is there a way around this?

If u cant go online you aint got membership or membership expired.

If he's too young, he won't be able to create an Origin account. He will need to get a parent to create one instead.

It's probably because your son has an under-age account for XBOX LIVE (Unless his account is set to 18+). I'm not sure otherwise.
~EDIT: Said brother instead of son. Apologies.

Check the DOB on his Origin account. Set it to 18+.
~EDIT: I'm actually not sure why they'll block him from a racing game either. I guess it's because Origin won't allow any underage gamers to play any underage games controlled by origin, seems pathetic.

Might be a good idea to contact EA then. If your son can't play a racing game because of an under-age problem, there's no doubt it's a bug.

in5173ch, I am with you, this is a fiasco...quite frankly I am completely annoyed that I bought the game now!! I will not be purchasing anymore EA game until this is sorted out...
I have been buying EA for years and this 'bury our head in the sand' attitude that seems to be coming from the makers is infuriating!!
Like you I hasve been responsible in setting my son up correctly with his own account unlike half the nation that just lie about it....head in sand, lets not bother to think about it, noone underage plays these nasty filthy games......waken up and sort it out!
