Well, by accident I managed to move the xbox 360 while my Street fighter 4 game was running, this has caused a huge circular scratch all around the disk. I've tried the general stuff to try and remove the scratch, (toothpaste, etc..) but nothing so far has worked.

Does anyone have any suggestions of how I can fix this scratch (if it's actually fixable that is), in an affordable way?

You'll have to get it buffed mate.

Shouldn't set u back more than a few quid though.Try one of your local game shops.

Install the game to the HDD before playing the game. You also get faster load time, a quieter console (since the disk doesn't spin while playing), and it's about 6 GB per game. Have at least 60 GB HDD imo.

Buffed. You'll never get it completely removed.

It wasn't possible to try this method because as soon as it reached 1% in installing, it stated the game was unreadable.I guess I'll try getting the game buffed, after all, i don't think the data is in fact broken as the game is still readable as "Street fighter 4" on the dashboard.
