For some reason or another, My xbox will not read my Fable II game, completely new (Zero scratches, blemishes or marks at beside the factory made indented-like mark thing.), the greatest hits version. after, I believe one freeze (about 3 days ago), The xbox won't read fable II anymore. I tried putting other game disks in and it reads them fine, I can play them perfectly. Fable II is the only one I have trouble with. I haven't finished the game and I really like it. Any knowledge on this? If it helps, I got my Xbox around December and the game in January.

Is there any other way besides calling in Microsoft? It read the game as a dvd video. so I dont think it's the system, I mean my xbox read everything else. How can a freeze completely make a disk unreadable? That never happens with my PC.

I get freezing with orginal xbox games sometimes but not with any 360 games like fable 2 you could have a bad disc though I am no professional its just my opinion.

I have no issues with my Xbox360 Slim console with Kinect package. Fable II runs well, as well as original Xbox games like Lego Star Wars II, and Xbox's Fable I

Original Xbox games have a delay before they fire up, for sure. About 20 to 30 Seconds.

Well, it's my first freeze off of my Xbox slim so I have no idea. I was recently "converted" from sony to an xbox guy. Well, Fable II is the only problem i have, and I bought the Xbox 4gb kinect pack.

I have the Slim and Kinect with the 250GB hard drive. All the Fables 1 to 3 run fine on it. Original Xbox games too, (like Fable I) with some delay at boot up. Your Fable II disk maybe faulty, take it back to where you bought it. Not all defects are visable on Xbox 360 DVD's

Well it depends on the size of your gamesave your loading The slim tends to not want to run the larger ones. but it does sometimes.
