Thanks guys =] I just got back from my doctor, he set me up with an appointment with a cardiologist, so hopefully it will just be a minor problem. My doctor said it can probably be treated with anti-biotics.

My Xbox 360 is getting to where it will only read my Halo 3 disk (Or any other game, for that matter) about the second or third time that I open and close the tray.

Is there any reason for this to happen? I haven't moved it, or really even touched it for a few months.

I've also tried laying it down, and standing it up vertically. Both ways take 2-3 tries.

It can only be fixed with anti-biotics, or if it's bad heart surgery.

It's caused by bacteria entering the blood stream =[
That sucks.. Really bad. I hope you get through it.

Apparently I freaked out on someone because I asked them why Tural or I are the first to be suspected as people who remove people's posts...
Maybe if you're posts weren't so mean all the time.

You have a samsung drive...

Normally all I do is I open it lying down then close it vertically works everytime...

It has something to do with the ruber bands inside of the dvd drive getting worn out

That's what exactly happened to me. Sooner or later, it'll stop reading discs completely. Microsoft sucks!

Or you could end up like i did and get the RRoD because of disc drive failure.

Fantastic. I'm assuming I'll just have to send it in to Microsoft, and hopefully not have to pay $50 along with S&H?

Also, I downloaded Fable and Halo 1 off of "Xbox Originals", so it still plays those with no faults at all.

Oh, and I noticed all of the 'Xbox Original' titles that they uploaded do not have Xbox Live. Is this because you can't play Xbox Live off of the Harddrive? If so, will they ever upload Halo 2?

They have all of the Xbox Live features the original games had. Ninja Gaiden Black, for instance, still has the leaderboard feature and allows you to upload scores as well. It's just a coincidence that the games featured in Xbox Originals don't have online multiplayer.

That's true, but at the same time, it's not Online Multiplayer. In Halo 2, you can't sign onto any kind of Xbox Live from the harddrive. However, if they did release Halo 2 on 'Xbox Originals', then EVERYONE who mods would be able to mod the old maps as well as the new maps. Also, you could just make one month, after one month, after one month, so it would be an explosion of mods.

Has anyone ever taken a swim in a chlorine pool for extended periods of time and then gone out to somewhere with lots of lights? That's what geometry wars2 does to you, it rubs chlorine in your eyes and throws oversaturaed colours at your face. You have to concentrate hard enough to survive the onslaught of colours, bloom and enemies.

Its crazy...I wish they didn't have it to such an extreme actually.

Like seriously, I just finished playing. My eyes are telling me how much I was trying to concentrate to just actually see by feeling funny and watering.
