Its nice how instead of having fellow users back people up all you get are fanboys backing up their system of choice. I'm sorry but there too many people getting the error at the same spot for it to be peoples machines, especially since most people say they can still play every other game they own fine. I've had 5 halo3 disks, they all play fine till a load screen then they dont start again, like my laser was fucking the disk as it read it the first time. Microsoft should never have let this happen, this was the biggest launch they have seen, if not anyone, I dont even think mario gets this type of attention! Instead of rushing new disks "that work" out to those in need they say send us your disk we'll send you one back for free, please wait 2 weeks!!!!!!!!!!! I'm sorry I didnt pay £50 to play something a month from now, I bought it now I want to play it now!!!! I too would say fuck you Microsoft I'm off to join sony, even though I cant stand that fucking horribly awkward controller, were it no for, as someone else said, to play what? I love my 360 I love the online live service built in i love( in a non sexual way) the friends iv made and play with on live, but this is almost unforgivable, and for them not even to offer to pay overnight shipping both ways is just a slap in the face cos they know we want it and we'll do whatever to get it!
TO come back to my other point, we need to see some camaraderie here all you little retards jumping about saying " its all 10 year olds crying wah wah wah" better get something through your head, someday it will be YOU that gets fucked over and you'll want people to care and not just hear crap about how someone else is fine and you can get fucked. Not to be overly dramatic but the same thing happened in Germany in 1939. Microsoft, Sony, any big business you can think off gets away with murder because we the consumer dont have each others back we only care that ours works, and thats bullshit, we need to all of us say "this isn't good enough!" even those whos disks work stand with your fellow live player and say something cos someday it will be you and ours will work and we'll say the same thing as you say now "WHATEVER!!!!"
The main thing wrong with this entire post is that you blame Microsoft entirely! Its honestly not there fault. Did they press the discs themselves? No, they pay another company to do so. Who you might ask? I dont know, go look it up yourself.
Look at it this way. If you were a business, and you sold products, but they were manufactured by a middle company before being sent out to customers. A problem arises in the product. Who would you blame? The company that designed it, or the company that manufactured it? You wouldn't your customers to come and blame you for a problem you had no control over, right? Same thing with Microsoft. They cant control the fact that there was a bad press of discs, they dont even press them in Microsoft!! They are done by some other company!
Id like to also question how you come about getting 5 Halo 3 discs though, have you honestly gone to the store 5 times within 3-4 days?
Anyway, just wait a week (or until Tuesday). Stores restock every Tuesday, and thats also why games usually always release on Tuesdays. So by then you should be able to get a Halo 3 disc that is good.
At the end of the day, its just a game dude. Chill out. That post makes it sound like video games are a main structure of your life (yea they are awesome and I have been playing since I was 7 years old, but come on, to get this rallied up about a game is too much!).
