The 360 is normally loud, look at the bottom of your disc is it scratched. I have never had that issue. If you move the system while its running a circle ring will be scratched into the bottom of your disc.

Loud as in fans loud or the disc drive loud or both :|

EDIT: Also i dont look at the bottom of my discs. ont ask why im just super sticitious, but if the 360 was to scratch my ddiscs im sure it wul make it un-readable or screwed or skippy so i think its just loud..ill try n find a video on how loud mine is to compare with you guys to tell me if its normal or not.

^^ you would think that they could make a good product but they can't.Its also funny how the american public buys a system they know has faulty hardware.Even after the first one breaks they continue to buy it.

Just don't move it while playing and you discs are just fine. And playing it horizontally decreases the risk of your discs getting scratched as well.

there is a small deejay inside the 360 who scratches the discs. but only when you smack his house around while the disc is still inside it.
