Xbox 360s scrape discs!

When they say on all the warnings and stuff to do with the console, they really do mean it. Do not move the console when there is a disc in the drive, and most certainly do not do this while it's powered on. I was foolishly resting my feet on the Xbox as it's under my computer desk (as I use the monitor for the Xbox too), I felt the urge to scratch one of my feet while a level of Burnout was loading and accidentally tilted the box to one side (it normally sits vertically). When I did this, I heard the most awful noise and quickly righted it. I turned the box off... and then on again to retrieve the disc. The damage had been done. I've got a perfect circular scratch about halfway to the middle of the disc at about a mm in width... Oddly the game still plays but I'm sure I'll get to a bit of the game which relies on data under that scratch, and then I've had it...

So let this be a lesson to you all: Don't be like Sly. Don't use your Xbox as a footrest. And definitley do not move the Xbox while it's on!
