Solution:

Play your game when you are using the system and not juggle it.

Problem solved

Someone's new to the concept of disk drives, I see.

:shock::cry:

This also says it on the orignal Xbox 360's. On the disc trey it says "do not move console when playing" or something like that.

Old news is old

Fail attempt at bashing 360 is fail

k?

so....don't move it when it's on?

don't see how that's hard to understand

how would this NOT happen? Do you even know how DVD drives work?wolverine4262

i can make my wii and ps3 do somersaults and they don't scratch the disk

this is kind of disappointing

Because you buy console so you can make it do somersaults:roll:

If you move any DVD drive it'll probably scratch...locopatho

ya know people used to carry these around:

the biggest problems those had was cd's skipping... but even those didn't scratch your disks and people did all sorts of crazy **** to their cd players

OK? and?

question is, do you NEED to make your 360 (or wii and ps3 for that matter) do summersaults?

people find the most dumb reasons to bash something i swear

Solution install games that cost the most to replace and dont move your console. Install the game and you can move your xbox 360 to your hearts desire while playing games.

Solution:

Play your game when you are using the system and not juggle it.

Problem solved

totally missed the point: not all dvd drives scratch your disks

[QUOTE="Lto_thaG"][QUOTE="wolverine4262"] My GTA4 did that too... b/c my mom knocked over my console.

don't keep it out in the open?

and if you NEED to move it...save and then turn off the system

I was about to make a similar point. My pc has not scratched a disc when I had 2 discs in it and someone kicked the whole thing over, and that has cheap £18 disc drives in it.

can't we just install the games and problem solved?

the disc doesnt' spin when the game is installed

just a question. why would anyone move a console when the are playing a game?

Well there goes my dream of playing 360 games whilst on the go - I guess I'll just need to leave it sit in mah entertainment center and play the games from my couch. :P

really guys? there's $30 bargain bin dvd players that don't scratch your dvd's if you move them while it's spinning the disc

slipknot0129

cause people will just have to play their summersaultin wii's and PS3's then on the road?

oh well.....

the 360 has a dvd drive that doesnt hold on to the disc thats why the game scratches. the reason why the wii, ps3 dont do it is because they grab the disc tightly in the drive

I don't think there is a single disc drive on the market that won't damage a disc when it is moved... aside from perhaps laptop drives. This isn't a MS or 360 problem, but user error... and always has been.

yea...i'm pretty sure installing games will fix this

and with a 250gb HDD....i don't think that's a problem for alot of people
