xbox 360 Disk Cracking

I try to find a way to get the disc back into the casing first, such as pressing on the center thing really firmly, or in GTAIV's case holding the disc down so the auto-pop tabs cannot shove the disc out and crack it in the process, ect. I've yet to figure out the eco-friendly casing of Guitar Hero 5's case, so instead of wearing on the disc I simply tuck it in with the manual. For most of my cases however, I can get the discs in and out without the center of the disc ever rubbing or touching anything until the disc is in place.

I would recommend trying to figure out your cases and how to get the games in and out without putting any stress on them. If that doesn't work, you could put them in a CD/DVD wallet, or, if you want them in their cases, tuck them in with the manual. If you don't want them to slide around but don't want to put them inside the manual, try to put them between the manual and another insert, or perhaps you've got some CD or DVD sleeve you could place them in and then put them with the manual. Whatever works for you will suffice and all the methods I have mentioned have been working for me!

EDIT: As for your games that already have slight chips or cracks, I bet it would be okay to continue letting them spin in the drive and they'd probably last far longer than you'd use them, but I would go the safe route and install them. If they look really bad, you might want to retire the game permanently or try and acquire a new copy.

A lot of people are also very slow and they foget to turn their sensitivity up or forget to cuztomize the control scheme so they can say "ooo the controls feel clunky" I played COD 4 and MW2 (for like a month) and i can say that the controls work fine. The vehicle controls work fine , yes it takes time to get used to but people are noobs and want to be in a chopper gunner with pinpoint accuracy and getting like 12 kills in a matter of a minute.Shuraijuro
