Apparently your reading comprehension is not all there, I didn't say that it necessarily irritates me. It's just annoying.

I can't finish matches on Sword Base, sometimes Forge World maps won't load, and I'm no longer able to start BTB's because the disk cannot be read. :( The disk is not scratched. I have the new 360 slim 250GB version. I have no problems with any other game at all.

I need HELP!!! It's been like this since September, and it's progressively gotten worse.
EXACT same problem as me! All of a sudden, I was no longer able to play Asylum. Then I was no longer able to play Cliffhanger. After this, I was no longer able to start some campaign missions. Sword Base no longer is able to be played either.

I can play custom games on the multiplayer maps fine, just not in matchmaking. It annoys me to no end. Asylum and Cliffhanger both load up but freeze at a random time. When the Campaign maps say "Loading...", my game usually freezes there. Sword Base won't even launch. My Xbox freezes in the loading screen.

I can't even complete the Weekly Challenge because of this :(

Every game I have reads fine but Reach will not load. No scratches and it won't even get to the point where I can install it to the HDD. It even came up as a DVD a few times...

I simply installed the game to the hard drive. It made me start campaign again but it was worth the space and time to play it over again. The disc had a crack near the center, preventing me from playing reach for a long period of time. Once i installed the game it worked like nothing had happened.

I just can't load the space mission and beat campaign because of it. And I can't play on powerhouse in custom or in matchmaking

you need to get your xbox sent in for repairs, I had that same
problem and I always got DC'd from loading screens and what not.

i started getting the unreadable disk error yesterday on my 250GB slim. it happens only during load screens before/after a matchmaking game and then the game works after with the error popping up every 3/4 games. the game worked fine for months and i dont see any scratches on the disk. what should i do?

  • 07.18.2011 5:51 PM PDT

Mihir Nambiar, keep playing and pray for the best knowing that:

1) You can follow everyone elses advice and install ( Might solve issue) Or uninstall it, I uninstalled and it actually worked for a bit.

2) If warranty still applies, which I think you fall under, phone microsoft about it, they most likely will give you a speech about "oh its not the machine problem" etc..

3) Test other games, if they have the same problem, you might eventually have to get a new xbox(warranty or buy a new one)

I get the "disc unreadable" only on my xbox 360 slim. Reach runs perfectly on my old 360 elite. Anyone have any ideas of why?

  • 07.21.2011 1:18 PM PDT

is the xbox on the side or laying down

  • 07.21.2011 7:51 PM PDT

Magnum & Sprint.

For me only the modern Halos don't work, 3, ODST, and Reach, everything works but starting a match. No problems with any other games.

Ive been having a similar problem with disk mess ups lately, the disk works like a charm on miltiplayer, even with a crack in it, but hardly ever works on campaign or firefight, will installing the game help much? And if so, will it take up a lot of memory?
