Re: This Disc Is Unreadable... Post Here If This Happens To You

IT HAPPENS TO ME EVERY OTHER TIME I PLAY THE GAME. AND IT ONLY HAPPENS IN DYNASTY MODE AFTER THE SECOND HALF OF THE GAME. I AM ON MY SECOND DISC AND I AM GOING BACK TODAY FOR MY THIRD.

Mine also only happened in dynasty mode sometime in the 4th quarter. This is freaking rediculous, maybe sony can make a product that will actually work. When I first got my PS2, first day they came out, I never had to deal with this crap. I went out on a limb to try Microsoft and all it has done so far is let me down with this game. Graphics and gameplay are awesome, I don't really care about the stuff they left out, I never really used anything but Race for the Heisman, but dynasty mode is just fine. But this freezing crap after an hour of playing every other game is killing me. If Madden does this, I gues I'll have to fork over $600 dollars of my hard earned money to go get a PS3. I bought my 360 so I wouldn't have to get the Sony, but I guess I have no choice if I want my sports games not to freeze.

Yes, it happens to me every game. Luckily I rented this. I am in my 3rd game of dynasty mode and i cant get past it because it gives me dirty disc error early in the first quarter every time. Usually its when I am recieving a kick off. It also happens when I try to play Hawkeyes vs Hoosiers in the Option dash. EA Sports: Its in the gayme.

Happened twice so far, once in the middle of an online game.  Never touched the bottom of the disc and my Xbox is less than one week old.

THE Ohio State University. Any questions?

Re: This Disc Is Unreadable... Post Here If This Happens To You
I just don't think it is the disc itself. I have no idea what the problem is, but for me it only happens when I've paused the game, and it doesn't happen all the time. My box stands vertically. I may have to try to reposition it to see if it helps.
Could it be the Xbox? I've had some ridiculously long load times with Oblivion. I'm going to be pissed if I spent 400 bucks on a piece of crap. Just talked a friend into buying one also..

Re: This Disc Is Unreadable... Post Here If This Happens To You
I just went out tonight and bought a used copy of the original xbox game, and I cant even get the game to start up. I get a message saying that the game isn't backwards compatible and an update might be available. Yeah, the game is a little scratched but barely nonetheless. I have a lifetime warranty on it so I think I might just take it back and see if I can get either a brand new one or at least a less damaged used one. My 360 is only like 2 weeks old and all my other games work fine...

Re: This Disc Is Unreadable... Post Here If This Happens To You
This has happened to me mulitple times.  I exchanged the game tonight and put my new one in and it happened both times I tried to play a game.  I just got my 360 a few weeks ago.  I haven't had any issues with Table Tennis or the XBLA games, just NCAA.  So I don't see how it could be the machine.  It has to be the game.

Is this problem only happening with the Xbox version? I had the 360 version for a few days and nothing ever went wrong.

This game is not backwards compatible, so getting 100 new discs won't help a bit. The last gen version of the game is not playable on a 360.  Did you think that even though it told you it wasn't bc that you could still do it somehow???

No. You're in the 360 forum. There is no known problem with the last gen version. Look at my last post for a common-sense reason for why yours is not working in your 360.

Re: This Disc Is Unreadable... Post Here If This Happens To You
6+ times for me in a week.  You can see it coming.  In between downs the game freezes for a second.  Then on another play, it will freeze for a bit longer.  Sometimes it comes back, sometimes it doesn't.  Make me not want to play anymore.  Has EA even acknowledged this problem?

Re: This Disc Is Unreadable... Post Here If This Happens To You

Angry [:@]Super Angry [8o|]  I've had this happen to me sevral times and i'm on my forth disk!  All my other games work just fine.

I called xbox and they told me it was an EA problem, so i called EA and they said it was a system problem. Nobody wants to take responsability for the problem and fix it. I'm pretty much being told sorry you spent 60 bucks for something that will not work, but theres nothing we can do to help you. I've done everything both xbox and EA have told me to do and nothing works. If anyone has been able to fix the problem PLEASE let me know.

Re: This Disc Is Unreadable... Post Here If This Happens To You
This has happen to me numerous times.  Have 4 other games, had 360 for a few months, none of my other games have ever produced this error.  Disc went from the box to the 360, definitely not scratched.  Seems like the disc suddenly stops spinning, hear a couple of small clicks, then the error pops in from the right.  360 then boots back to the dashboard.  Very frustrating.

I've had this happen to me 3 times and its always at the end of a game before you save or near the end.  Whenever the 360 stops making noice a few seconds after that the error message pops up.  Its getting to be really annoying.  My xbox 360 isn't even a month old.

That exact same thing happens to me except I don't always get the unreadable disc error, it will just freeze. I emailed MS about it and they sent a reply that was cut straight from the support page. Real good effort there MS!!! I would even bet that a real person did not even see just an automated response.

EA is blaiming the 360 DVD firmware (mine appears to be Toshiba-Samsung):

Thanks for updating me on this issue regarding the freezing you've been experiencing with NCAA Football 07 on your Xbox 360 game console. Seeing how the game is consistently freezing on your console, it would be my belief that the firmware for your DVD drive in your console may be at fault. Unfortunately, this is not something that our engineering or development teams can affect as this appears to be a hardware issue.

In further researching both the Xbox and the Xbox 360, I have found that there are differences in the component hardware used in the consoles' construction and these subtle differences oftentimes result in instances where game freezes may occur. Again, when this happens, generally a firmware update will correct this issue but, in the case of the Xbox and Xbox 360, this will have to come from Microsoft as they control all aspects of their hardware. Our development team, while very sympathetic to your plight, has done everything necessary to fulfill the specifications of the Xbox 360 based on the information provided to us by Microsoft. What you may want to check are which other options you may have with regards to updating your firmware through Microsoft and the Xbox customer service team. If, because of this shortcoming,  you are completely dissatisfied with NCAA Football 07, there is very little other option I can provide aside from offering our 90-day warranty so that you exchange the game with a brand new, sealed copy for return to your original retailer.

Kinda odd that this doesn't happen to other games though, wouldn't you think?

Exactly, sounds like an EA issue to me since I have never had any issues with all the other games I own.

Re: This Disc Is Unreadable... Post Here If This Happens To You
It's happened to me four times since 7/27. I got the game when it came out on July 18th and played 20-25 games without any problems. Now, I keep getting DDE. The first two times it happened after I'd played two games in a row, usually late in the fourth quarter of the second game. Then it happened after a game while I was checking out my team stats. Then today I got a DDE after a game while I was waiting for the dynasty menu to load. There's not a scratch on the disk. As my only other game (FNR3) operates fine, I'm pretty confident this is an EA problem, not a problem with my XBox 360 one.
