Xbox 360 has been causing some concern to some customers as the console is known to scratch the discs and thus make them useless. Microsoft has clearly specified in the manual that you may not move the console while it is playing, but what they perhaps should have written is: Do not even breathe; because users have reported scratched discs even though they didn’t move the console at all. However this has only, to our knowledge, been reported when the console is standing up. This has caused so much concern that the North American game rental service GameFly has now updated its policy regarding Xbox 360 and all we can say is that you should keep your Xbox 360 lying down at all times and preferably far, far away from anything can cause the slightest movement of the console.
“We have received reports that certain XBOX 360 consoles have caused damage to GameFly videogames. Unfortunately, we have been notified that you recently returned a damaged XBOX 360 game.
As a precaution, we have removed all XBOX 360 games from your GameQ. Please contact Microsoft at 1-800-4MY-XBOX. Please do not rent XBOX 360 games until you have resolved this issue.
In the future, should GameFly receive XBOX 360 games from you that have been damaged, you will be charged a replacement fee.”
