After returning two discs, buying a new one from a different store, and countless fix attempts, I finally got my copy to run. Everything is not perfect, and sometimes get DRE, but have played some marathon single player/multiplayer sessions.
Considering all the random crap I did, it's hard to tell what worked (or whether something worked itself out, I have a sneaking suspicion this problem originates with Live and something may have been "fixed" without an update):
1. Disconnect HDD, disconnect from Live
2. Stand system vertical
3. Play game (this is where it worked, if not, try again?)
4. turn system off, insert HDD
5. Play game again
6. If everything is working, reconnect to Live
7. enjoy it while it lasts
EDIT: In retrospect, the HDD step may have not been an issue. Also, i installed the game as soon as I could. Damn this is confusing, this is obnoxious. @ below, yea, this should be illegal.
Tried it, didn't work. The weird part is that the last disc I had would only let me play single player if my HDD was taken out. This one one won't even load up the second level with or without the harddrive in it. I got my 360 back from repair last year November and the warranty ended in March...at least I think
