I went to the video rental store the other day and rented Marvel: Ultimate Alliance. I just rented it because it is surpose to have 120 achievements and I wanted the points. Well, when I got home and plopped the darn thing in........it sped up the drive and then locked up my 360. I tried it several different ways and even cleaned the damn disk 3 times. Am I the only one that this has happened to or is it a more common occurance? Any help will be greatly appreciated!

I don't think the game is messed up because it was rented......It literally has no scratches on it......I even put it into a friends 360 and it ran fine......perhaps it is something with the product coding on the disk messing with something on my 360? Weird, I Know!.......

No, No, No......I don't think you guys are getting what I'm saying here!......I've rented more than one copy of the game...."Marvel: Ultimate Alliance" and they are all doing this......Has anyone heard of any sort of feed back from a save or patch that could be causing the game not to want to work????

Microsoft suggested to me to never rent games, they make more money when you buy but still the guy was being nice not attempting to make a sale. I got the rrod when i rented a copy of madden. I managed to fix the system myself, but have only rented once since and that was the day the games came out so they were brand new. But its the same as buying used and i buy most of my game used so i guess it really does not matter. But 7 bucks to rent a game thats 1/5th the cost of a used new game. so i just buy and trade in games.

So youve rented the game on several occasions and none of them worked? Well here's an idea, stop renting the game. If it wont work, then it wont work. Nothing you can do to make it work.

I had a weird problem back on the old ps2, everytime I played Xmen Legends whenever I got to a certain it would freeze - everytime. That was a bought game.

I rent games often and haven't many problems. At blockbuster you cankeep them for a month for $12. (no late fees) Sousually you canbeat a game or get sick of it in that time.

Alot better than paying $70 and maybe get $25 in credit if you wanna sell it. The other problem I find is that sometimes you don't give much time to games that aren't great or don't immediately catch your eye. I can think of Mass Effect and Assassin's Creed as two recent examples. Decent games but slow and some flaws. ME fighting and AC finding missions.

Of course, that might be due to spending the last month playing Call of Duty4 with it's instant action and ADD blast blast.

Better then buying isn't it?

Never the less, I don't think the game caused this, I've never heard of a game doing it. I think it's your system. :(
