Just for reference, if the small scratches you said you have are curved, then the 360 its self is at fault. Also it helps to have the console horizontal as opposed to vertical.... to stop disc scuffing.
Plus, if the game is taxing or reads from the disc a lot then the heat generated from the console may cause laser burns. Prime examples of this are GTA (streaming constantly) and Gears (makes the console work hard = more heat).
