Check if you CD is break in the center. If it break, go in a EBGAME and told them your problem.

Well i would recommend you ask for assistance at your nearest electricals store and see what they would recommend they will proberly recommend something like a lens cleaner or a disc cleaner and use them both and if it still don't work then i would recommend to ring microsoft to see if your free 1 year warranty is still valid because if it is then they will repair it or send you a replacement and if the warranty isn't valid i would say find a video guide for opening up your xbox and see what the problem is sometimes it can be the track on lens because the lens is like on a track thing like the disc drive and if you turn your xbox off when its reading the xbox lens is at the back meaning next time you put in a game the lens will be too fair away to read the disc so that could be your problem

do you stand your xbox up? maybe for some reason the cd isn't sitting in the tray. if you have it vertical try laying it down and see if that still happens. hope i helped

It has a new scratch that happened when i pulled my controler by

When you pulled the controller, and the Xbox made the "weird noise" it was probably caused by the game sliding out of the tray. This can happen when a disk is spinning in the console and the console suddenly jerks in any direction.

HAWX open tray

If it says "reading" you just have to wait. H.A.W.X. is a big game.
If it says "open tray" you have to close the tray :)

Unless, Check the CD for scratches and marks, or else try the CD on another Xbox 360 console.

My xbox 360 keeps puting scratches on my games

check to see if anything is obscuring the disc tray on opening and closing.
If there isnt check the disc make sure its smooth and flat no bumps and not bent

if there is noises like grinding when playing it may be a part inside causing this

i suggest calling xbox because i dought u want to risk doing this to other games.

please rate. thank you

XBOX 360

Your laser in your xbox has been moved, this is causing scratching once the disc heats up. you need to take it to get adjusted. Or if there is a sticker on something on the disc that may unbalance it, take it off.
