| Either that or I just got bad copies of World Tour and PoP. I get the "the disc is unreadable" message quite a lot of with GHWT (most recently just after I got 100% on Hotel California before I could save the game. I was so pissed. Why doesn't it use autosave?), and I got it a couple times with Prince of Persia too. Hasn't happened with any other games though, so I'm holding out hope. If all goes well it'll at least last until I can be bothered to buy a PS3, although preferably it'll just not break ever. | |

| -your discs might have fingerprints/scratches/etc.
-you may have to use some canned air to clean out any dust that may be in the filter near the back
-it may be some dust in the 360's 'eye' that reads the disc which means you *may* have to send it in for refurbishing (worst case) | |

| Certain games are worse for the "unreadable" thing than others. Make sure the discs aren't getting scratched, as that's what happened with Mass Effect on my 20GB 360. It came up unreadable, then the disc was all carved up.
It's nothing to do with RROD. | |

| No way. This isn't some crummy old PS2 that you can just leave in a ditch somewhere. | |
