Thanks, Xbox, for breaking my Red Dead Redemption.

[zombays]

Yep, it happened. My Xbox 360 literally scratched my Red Dead until it was unplayable. I played in the basement, sat on the couch, and played it. But after awhile those real loud noises which are the signs of the xbox F'ing my disc eventually got worse. I had paid $60 for it, and got Undead Nightmare for $10. All to see it scratched to death. Thanks, Microsoft, you're just...wonderful!


NOTE: Couldn't install to hard drive due to only having 10 GB harddrive.

Weird. That doesn't seem to happen unless you move the 360 while it's on and a disk is in.

Only time a disc usually scratches is when the console is being moved or if there is something heavy on top of th xbox. I never had a problem with disc scratching and I've had mine about 4 years, though I did get the RRoD once.

Only reasons i can think of are that you either moved the xbox while the game was being played, or your xbox is on a slant for some ridiculous reason. Apart from that, no clue.

I have an old '07 model. Fuck. My SNES still works completely fine, and it's been what? 1990? 1991? Yet, a $300 Xbox 360 still manages to bumfuck your disc, even if you keep it completely still. (Which I always did)

send it to Microsoft HQ! its THEIR system messing up YOUR disc, if MS likes their customers they should replace/repair your disc

 

[Glademaster_v1legacy]

Well my launch xbox never did anything like that. Besides you really should of upgraded a long time ago especially if you haev an xbox. You need to install games on your hard drive to prevent this sorta thing. It sucks and it is MS's fault but you bought the console. You as a consumer haev a right not to buy another one and that is the only thing MS will understand.

that,s probaly because Nintendo systems are build from Nintendium its a special material that never breaks (you could even throw a bomb on it and will still work (cookie for refference))

Nope, I have the TV in a TV wardrobe (go figure) and the Xbox in the shelf under it. Sideways, for reduced vibration. This is a perfectly good reason to either A) FINALLY upgrade my PC and actually enjoy or B) Buy a PS3. OR secret answer C) Finally beat Okami on the Wii. F@#%!

 

[zombays]

Never had this problem, although I usually install the games I'll be playing to avoid any chance of it happening.

Demand that Microsoft compensate you!

That, I shall. But since I've already outplayed all of my games on the Xbox, I think it's safer to just upgrade my PC.

I have one of the earliest models and the only times my discs have been scratched was when I moved the xbox. Have you been putting things on top of it? Beating the shit out of it, perhaps?

Lol, nah. I think something just went with the production now.

lol At least you didn't troll for too long.

It was also made to be used sideways...
