agreed, this really just seems to be user errorNickCooley said:I wouldn't call this a microsoft fail, sounds like common sense to me. But of course there are plenty of fuck wits out there so common sense seems to be in short supply.
I feel like it's the same with a dvd playerVanityGirl said:Isn't this a rule for erm... all consoles? I mean I've never moved my Wii, 360 or PS3 because it just seemed like a bad idea to move it with a disk in it.
3$ on a 60$ game is a 5% additional cost for a mostly useless service. In my book, that's a quite large waste. Titular problem aside, I've never heard of anyone I know getting a dvd scratched, let alone a game that costs that much; taking decent care of your stuff is smarter that to get an insurance for it.JeanLuc761 said:Speaking as an employee of Gamestop, that warranty covers the system eating the disc. Not sure how it's a stupid move to spend $1-3 to protect a $60 investment.
This isn't a new flaw, the same sticker was on the original 360. Because this was a problem they even offered a replacement disc for all games published by Microsoft for 20 usd.tghm1801 said:FAIL, MICROSOFT. FAIL.
I mean, they may have fixed the Red Ring of Death issue, but isn't this worse?
However, I suppose most people don't really move their 360s whilst it's playing a disk.
Not at all, if your idiotic enough to move your console whilst it's spinning a disk, then you don't deserve that disk. It's common sense, would you flip your computer while it's playing a DVD, your DVD player, your PS3, your Wii?tghm1801 said:FAIL, MICROSOFT. FAIL.
