I'm having an extremely hard time understanding what you just said...

Are you saying why does the 360 keep scratching your disk up? Are you moving the console while the disk is playing? That isn't good to do.

If you aren't, then you might have something defective inside your console. You can send it into microsoft, free of charge, and they will repair it and send it back. They also give complementary 1month xbox live member ships for the inconvenience.

The reason is because you can set the 360 up 2 different ways and it knows the way you set it up because of a tilt mechanism inside of it.

You can either lay the console down, or stand it up. It has to be one or the other before the console is turned on. You can't tilt it or changes its position while it is on because that disrupts its internals and causes damage to the disk.

But then again, like I said, it might not be that that is causing your disks to get ruined. It might just be a broken part inside the system.

Moving a device with an open-tray optical drive while there is a disk inside and the device is turned on can cause the device to malfunction and scratch the disk? Good heavens, man, you've singlehandedly uncovered something the rest of the human race has known since the introduction of the CD player!

Seriousy, though, either you're 'barely' moving it a lot more than you say you are, or you've got a defective system. I've kicked mine before without incident and I know my optical drive is fucked up. "Fucked up" meaning: tray refuses to open while X360 is standing up, strange and disturbing rattling sounds emanating from drive while spinning, and last but not least the braking mechanism being shot to hell so that the disk will emerge still spinning if the tray is opened while the system is turned on (resulting, predictably, in scuffing). I have to turn the system off, wait for the drive to spin down, then turn it back on and open the tray to remove the disk. And yet somehow shifting the system, even violently, doesn't cause it to eat my games. Methinks your console is more in need of servicing or replacement than mine is.

Xbox360's are made very poorly hence the red ring of death, both the Xbox and the Xbox360 have been made very poorly compared to all of the other consoles.

Yeah, although I don't own a 360, I really don't intend to. Not only are there maybe a few good games on it, but it seems to be very shitty hardware wise. I'll just wait until PS3 becomes affordable, or get a Wii for more casual gaming, since I tend to play console games more casually anyways.

Those are all multi-platform games that are also available on the 360.

This thread illustrates why a PS3 is a better purchase... I've had a 40GB PS3 since last Christmas and I have no problems whatsoever with mine, and all those multiplat games are completely playable on my system because I don't have to send it in for repair every week.

All the new systems suck anyways because they aren't cartridges, and you can't play Donkey Kong Country on them.

LOL i like how this immediately jumps into a 360 flaming thread. Did anyone of you read his post?

WHY would he have been dropped shit onto his Xbox while it is on and spinning a cd? that doesnt make sense

Why would you lift up and tilt ( i assume close to a 45degree angle ) from the front of the system while theres a game IN A CD TRAY.

So by doing senseless things to something that wasn't meant to be done to it, its immediately the devices problem ? If you have a device with a spinning cd, the logical thing would be to not unbalance it would it not ?

I would love to have someone drive there car then suddenly push the gear into park, then bitch about company X's shitty vehicles.

This appears to be the same idea to me.

Older 360 models have manufacturing errors. They redesigned them recently to perform better.

Also, as a side note, I made a thread in the heated discussion forum a while ago to house console arguments and no one bothers with it Neutral.

And Wii is an excellent console.

If you send the console back to Microsoft for a free repair, how do they profit from that? It's just a flaw, not a money-making scheme.


whoa.
