360 Cut my disc?

One morning I put UFC Undisputed into my 360 disc tray, made sure it was securely placed in the tray, and injected it into the console. After the screen went black to start up the game, I heard some strange sounds coming from the drive. I took out the disc to observe the problem and the back of the disc had a perfect circle carved into it. I tried many cleaning methods and nothing works, the system itself broke my game. UFC Undisputed is not a Microsoft product so they do not offer a repair plan. WDF. This only happened once and my other games run fine, my buddy even brought over his copy of UFC and it worked flawlessly.

1. buy the game again and hope it doesn't happen again?
2. call Microsoft again for useless dialogue?
3. sell 360, then buy a ps3 ASAP?

 

I've had my 360 for 3 years. Never encountered that problem.

 

Usually happens when the xbox is tilted while the disc is spinning. Not sure how/why it happened if you didn't tilt it or anything like that but honestly it's bad luck. Xbox is by far better then ps3 so selling it would be pointless.

I'm not saying do this 'cause it's by far shady but I know a few kids from my old high school that had the same thing happen and they went to gamestop purchased a used version of the game. Swapped it out and went up the next day saying it had the scratch on it when they opened it up. Since you have a 7 day warranty on used items they usually can't tell you no.

Anyway good luck.

 

Was it vertical or horizontal? I heard having it horizontal makes these kinds of things less likely to happen.

Anyway if you can buy the game again do it.

 

On my previous 360 which I've now sold I had the same issure but not as bad as yours, sometimes the 360 would scratch up my discs, so their unreadable. But it depends on your drive, and if you have moved the console while the disc was inside.

 

I have had that problem, With Cod5, Just bought the game again and it worked. Gl

 

I dont seem to have that problem and i keep mine horizontal. Try that if its not already.

 

Ive had this problem before and it is usually caused by something hitting your xbox. Did by any chance you drop an item on to it?
