No offense but the giant sticker on the 360 that says "Do not move unit while in operation" means just that. I can't believe that people are so shocked when you move a vertical player and it scratches the hell out of the disc.

Didn't we already go through this with the PS2?

Actually, I can move my PS2 while playing a game and it doesn't destroy the disk (fat v3 PS2). In fact, the only time it destroyed a disk is when it fell off my bookshelf. Luckily, I was only renting that game.

It's more in-depth than just 'Do not move unit while in operation' since the 360 can scratch disks so easily. Many of the disk drives don't even have the rubber feet that are supposed to help prevent that kind of thing. Maybe they should add a big sticker that says 'Warning, console may suddenly fail at any given time'? I find it interesting that you compared what I said about my friend moving his 360 foward an inch and then talked about turning the 360 from a horizontal to vertical position.

 


I wasn't talking about moving the 360 from the vertical to horizontal position. I was talking about moving it at all while it's standing. Vertical optical drives are rather trecherous and don't respond well to movement.
