Then it's obviosuly your fault.
Tell them you bought the game before you got your 360 because youre lame like that.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Or that you had to beat Game X before you played Game Y. You plated it breifly and then went back to beat game X, when you really started playing game Y it started ****ing up with read errors.

there's no pre-quel to this game. and yes it was my fault. i'm very aware of that. that might work but i'm not good at lying either.. could put my job on the line too. unless i go to another store.

If they check the disc condition just tell em it was like that when you bought it and some people at Hastings i've boughten a few used games for 360 and they are scratched, it's like they don't even check the condition of the disk and just put it on the shelf -rolls eyes- bastages

So? I had to beat Wakeboarding Unleashed before I let myself play GT4 a whole lot. With me I get in the groove of one game and if I play different ones I am not as good. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

take it back, tell them you bough it for your brothers birhday, and it didnt work.

perfect. that's what i was looking for. thank you. "i lost my receipt and i bought this game for my brother's birthday and he tried to play it and the first time he tried to play it, the game wouldn't load and he looked at the disc and it had a huge scratch on it and won't play.." only thing is the xbl 48 hour trial card, i tore the perforation off to see the access code. which "my brother" could've done upon opening it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/up2something.gif.dd110ecf3ae4b76050d87598f2f8de7c.gif

i shouldn't have moved it in the first place from where i had it earlier but i wanted the extra protection in case it could overheat. i was trying to find something to put it on on top of the carpet.
what does waxing it do? never heard of this unless it's sarcasm.

there is a 15.00 stand you can get at walmart that has a xtra fan for it.

i've heard those can fry your 360 too...it's been perfect since the launch day last year, but once i get it back in my room and back where i had it, i won't have to worry.

lol don't play it for hours on end and it shouldn't overheat, back in the day i would play my N64 hours on end and it'd never overheat

yeah. i can't afford to play more than 8-10 hours straight due to me needing sleep since i work overnights. effing sucks but xbl is addicting. pdz sucks online tho. halo 2 was alright online.

How do you play a video game for 8 hours straight?

I think you should send a friend up to wal-mart, not yourself. If they tell him no, tell him to request the number for corporate complaints because the disc is defective and you only want another disc of the same game.

im unsure how they could fry your 360. its just a stand w/ a fan on the bottom of it to blow air in the 360. and it hooks up via the usb port on the back.

been using it for over a month now and its fine

something to do with the voltage rails. i wanna say it's the nyko intercooler things.

as for friends, my coworkers are my only friends right now so that'd be kinda hard to do.

Take it to any Wal-Mart, tell the Cust. Service person you opened it up and it was scratched and you need to exchange it for a new one. Tell the person you are bad about keeping reciepts. They don't ask questions on defective returns. They will send you back to electroncs. The associate will get you your new game and walk it up to the return desk. Sign the new reciept and be on your way. I used to be a Support Mgr at Wally World.
