Um…oops.<\/p>\n
So, I got my latest games from Gamefly<\/a> last week – “Shadow of the Colossus<\/a>” and “The Matrix: Path of Neo<\/a>“. I tried “Shadow” first, but I kept getting a ‘Disc Not Recognized’ error, so I set it aside and played “Path of Neo” instead. <\/p>\n Fast forward about a day and a half – by this time I’ve beaten the Matrix game (which was a lot of fun, I had a blast!) and am looking to move on. I check the “Shadow” disc – a few scratches but I’ve seen much worse. Try it again, still errors out; wipe the disc (remember kids! ALWAYS clean an optical disc from the center out, NEVER in a circle!), still errors out; blow a little into the Xbox to make sure there’s no wayward dust, still errors out; clean the disc with Windex<\/em>, still errors out. <\/p>\n *Sigh* Okay, it’s rare, but every once in a great while I’ll get a bad disc from Gamefly (or Netflix) – disappointing, but I’ll survive for the two days it takes them to send a replacement. I go to the Gamefly site, I log in to my account, I choose “Report a defective disc” …<\/p>\n … and then finally notice that it is a PlayStation 2 game I’ve been trying to play in my Xbox.<\/p>\n DOH!<\/p>\n
