    Ok, I just got an xbox 360, Borrowing it from my uncle.
    He only had madden 09, I hate sports.

    I bought GTA4, And I played it for a day, Then, I turned it off, took it out, went to sleep, woke up, put the disc back in, And then it said problem reading disc.

    Not sure if this circle was here before hand.. but, there is a perfect circle around the disc, and it can no longer read the disc, I was wondering if anyone else has had GTA4, and this big circle was there before they played.

    Its not a superclear shot, but, Its very existant, I don't recall seeing it, And I was wondering if anyone has encountered this problem?

    Do you think walmart would take the game and replace it if I provided valid reciepts?

    If any of your friends have Xbox 360s, I'd suggest trying out the GTA IV disc in one of theirs.

    As Mike said above me, that will happen if you move the console while the disk is spinning. That is the only way I've heard of it happen.

    That's what happened then, and wal-mart will say it was through your own fault, and make you buy the game again. You lost 50$

    Epic fail... ;(

    Does anyone know of a way to correct this? Aside from renting a game from somewhere and swapping the disk?

    Same thing happened to my copy of Lost Planet, the dog went crazy and heard something outside so it ran into my room knocking the Xbox over...

    So by simply MOVING the console, it will fuck your disc up?

    DAMN that sucks.
