Last week my Xbox dvd drive started to kick the bucket on me. I was under the impression it may have been the game I was playing at the time - a preowned copy of Buffy The Vampire Slayer (as opposed to say, Buffy the Waffle Cone Maker).
In any case, after the fellah at EB showed me a Game Dr. I asked to see what the discs look like. He pulled out what must be their demo disc and laughed as I recoiled (I'm not kidding, there was a foot and a half of honest to god recoiling action) in horror from this abomination. He popped the disc in (Azurik - yeeuch) and waiting. And waited. And waited.
Yeah. Dirty Disc Error. I snatched my Buffy from his clutches and Ran Like Hell(tm).
My local Microplay had an ad in the window for professional disc resurfacing for $4.99 Canadian (taxes in! whoot) The Microplaydude (not to be confused with the midgets who pose nude in mags) vanished into the back room for about two minutes. When he came back, he obviously had brought some new strange fresh copy of Buffy with him as it was Helldamnass pristine. Like bullet that killed Kennedy pristine.
So in short, the home disc cleaners, are, in my opinion and slight experience a waste of time while also making your disc heartstoppingly ugly.
Spend the bucks and get it done right.
