Not that you would do it with intent, but my Resistance disc is stil crisp and fine with nothing else but fingermarks on it. I could have a PS2 game scratched within a day. I heard there was a special coating on it or something.
yes it has a coating on it. my daugter got her hands on my untold legends it still does not have a scratch on it. this is one of the reason i got ps 3 because even though i keep my games out of reach some how my daughter ends up with it. some of my ps 2 game are to scratched to play.
never entered my mind.but its a good topic..i must go and check my discs..would'nt it be great to buy a pre-owned game that has been bought and sold a few times and still play and look like new!
I've gotten some movies from Blockbuster online that had some minor scratches, but still played fine. I have only received one movie from them that would not play, and it did not really have any scratches, but appeared to have some kind of oil type film on it. I tried to clean it off, but could not get it to play anyway.
i always take good care of my disc's... and now you guys tell me i don't have to? wuuh!

But nah. i haven't tried to scrats them just to find out. and drop a disc doesn't really do anything on a carpet :S it's not like my carpet is made out of knifes. i think i have ONE game, that maybe has a serious scrats. but.. it's a PS1 game., so im not worried.
Blu ray discs have a special coating which reduces scratches, however if you do scratch a blu ray disc it's a gonna. Unlike DVD's/CD's which can be repaired in certain circumstances (see link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blu_ray#Hard-coating_technology)
i take all posible precautions to not stratch or get finger prints on my disks. i like them to be perfect. i just dont understand how someone can pay so muhc money for something and the jsut stick thier fingers all over it or jsut lay it down face first. not saying anyone here does, but some do. its just odd.Â
Not sure if it's the coating or the disk but take a PS3 disk and a PS2 (or any other systems) disk and look at them, the other disk is kind of relfective but the PS3 is literally like a mirror, it's crazy... Sony must have been like, "but what if you want to check your hair before you play...", then " yeah, well we could make the disks double as mirrors", finally, "making disks double as mirrors... BRILLIANT!".
 But no, not sure you can scratch them deep enough to mess anything up without really trying.
My RFOM disc already has a few scratches on them. Sony, you lie, I thought you said BR Discs were unscratcheable.T-Zone
Did you attack it with a machete? But seriously, since the games are written so compact, that even a small scratch could render your disc unusable, thus enter scratch resistant layer.

normaly my games are pretty much beaten up to the point i have to buy another one (i dont take good care of my stuff)Â but i just checked and there really are no scraches for me to complain

If it gets scratched in the wrong place then it could screw up your whole disc!
