Hey,

Okay, well basically for some reason I fancied going on GTA IV today. So I was playing it from the start, and every so often the disc was unreadable. So I just restarted xbox and tried again.

Now on the "first date" at bowling, as soon as i go to the alley it is unreadable every time. There are no major scratches, only a few specs.

I've put some Mr.sheen foamy stuff on it and rubbed with microfiber cloth (circular (apparently it messes it up?) ).

Anyway, this aside; what's the best way to clean the discs ?

i wouldn't reccommend that method to anyone, i would prefer you to go gamestation and pay £1.99 or buy a machine, this broke 3 of my discs (toothpaste)
