Anyone had any? My second PGR3 disc started showing them tonight, gonna have to get it replaced again! The only mark on the disc is one that's been there since new :(
 
I cant say ive had any because I dont yet have a 360 but ive read a bit about them. Some people are saying that you can take the disc and give it to another 360 user and it will be fine. That its a hardware problem with that game on your system rather than the disc.

And that this game will continue to play badly on your system. Ive seen a lot of these case on the avforums.
 
The 360 seems well flaky to me.. hardware failures, dirty disc errors, discs scratching and even cracking all seems worryingly commonplace.
 
i get them occasionally, drive kinda like "ticks" - then eventually dashboard comes up saying disc can't be read. It only ever happens on PGR3 disc, not on condemned/King Kong. Maybe they were cheapo discs that they used for PGR3 and we seem to get the odd duffer? If it was a drive fault i would have thought it would do it with all dics.

I'll keep an eye on it anyway and see how it goes

Yep exact same, the tick is the lens trying to pickup. My PGR3 disc has a mark on it which it has had from new. Problems with pressing I feel, first disc had like a watermark in it aswell, have contacted gameplay, they swapped the last one no probs.
