CoD (Xbox 360) CD is SCRATCHED: I'm freaking OUT

I've used it on many CDs and a couple DVDs. Only once has it not worked, the scratch was pretty deep. All the others still work fine. I think it works best on the "scuffs" rather than a scratch you can feel.

It looks kind of dramatic when you take the disc out of the unit, it will have streaks running from the center out all the way around. So far I've been lucky with it. If you save a couple discs it well worth the cost.

Good Luck!

Your Xbox HD? Really? You can do that?

You still need the disc in the drive to play the game as it acts as an authentication tool so people don't just rip the game and return it. On most games, it vastly improves load times especially when playing online and takes the stress off the disc drive (the main reason xboxes overheat). Reckon if you don't have a huge HD (I have the 250GB model) it will take up a lot of space which you need to be mindful of. Of course ripping a scratched game is like a ripping a scratched music CD so the quality will still be poor.

Insert a game disc and in the "my games" dashboard, hit Y and it should bring up the option to install the game to the HD. I'm shocked that most people who own an Xbox don't know you can do that.
 
Like M10000, I too have heard the old "toothpaste" remedy. I tried it a time or two without much success, but maybe I wasn't doing it correctly - wrong peppermint flavor variation or something. ;) I have used a simpler version of alister's device to reasonable success. And Lostlover, you may want to burn a backup CD (which is legal if it's for your own personal backup/use) if you don't go the HD load route - even if they use funky copy protection, fake multi-sessions or bad sectors on the CD to thwart copying (and I don't know if they do) there are "CloneCD"-type programs that will clone a disc, "warts and all", so you should be able to get a decent copy.
 
How did your game get scratched? 360 games are so delicate as it seems even the slightest scratch prevents you from even playing the game.
