@@samholdsworth420 burning cds on the family computer

lol

because unfortunately it is the exception.

I used to keep my discs and cartridges all over the place and the cartridges in particular have wear marks where my thumb has been pulling them in and out - and the CDs I have from back in the day don't read at all any more. These days I take much better care of my games and consoles, and when trading in my old 3DS the game store commented that it looked in really good condition!

I cannot stand poor disc care. Godspeed, keep fighting the good fight ;_;7

Samniss Arandeen Games bought by me originally = Still like new or in very good condition, worse case scenario, light scratches. Even after 16 years. Games bought second hand = 10% Like new, 10% Very Good, 10% Good condition (light scratches), 30% Ok with many scratches 35% Acceptable as in, the game still plays but the disc seemed to be handed with sandpaper, 5% are basically returned since it seems they used a knife on the disc.

LOLZ

how do you buy a disc from steam ?

Well you cant buy a second hand disc for steam because the code would allready been used so all of you who think im stupid go and try and buy a second hand pc game okay

Lets P@rty No need to take offense man: no one means it, we're just poking a little fun ;)

i dont get it you said you bought a game on steam which is a download only thing unless you bought it in a store brand new and some how it was scratched so im confused you know :(

I didn't expect that joke and I have been laughing like an idiot at it for nearly five minutes

@@AniW2x4 What's it referring to?

*Lazyness/box is gone

"Box is gone" is almost never a legitimate excuse, half the time their discs are lying right on top of the fucking box. It's just laziness, extreme laziness.

Marshal Walker Laziness makes sense, but some people throw their boxes away for absolutely no reason or they lost the box.

+Matt D It touched several points of comedy, and as with any joke, it was already written before he discovered it. It was a beaut. It was more low brow than his normal style so it was a little jarring, I think he chuckled because he had gone off piste... but the world is a better place for that joke being made. ;)

+Steve Sharp wonderfully put

Matt D If i was a comic, that would be me. You hear him starting to lose it, during the set-up, knowing its going to be a zinger. I'm a comedy fan, but when a comic is dropping a bomb of a joke and you see them corpsing a little on the setup, it can really make the joke stick.. especially on second viewing. Sometimes you see comics doing jokes, holding it in, then laughing a few seconds later, and they are holding it in from the last one.. I guess its a laugh of knowing you're killing it.

Hiragirin That happens too often when getting DVDs etc through post.

I know this was ages ago, but did you have Wii sports, when the original one came in a damn cardboard sleeve, that just scuffed the disk to hell?

While I agree that the majority of CD slieves sold at retail are worthless; I exclusively use a particular type of cloth CD sleves, and have had meddling family members and colleagues repack (and destroy) years of backups and other discs by repacking them into other types slieves/pockets "to be helpful" or for some misplaced loyalty to products "Made in USA". The hiarchy seems to be (in order of most crap to least): coarse felt (instant destruction!, $2~10) uncured clear vynil. ($1.50) paper w/ plastic window, ($0.65) coarse nylon, ($1~3) waxed cardboard, ($0.75) waxed cardboard w/plastic window, ($0.75) paper w/ glued seam on the inside, ($0.30) transparent cured vynil, ($2) hardshell polycarbonite, ($0.50) paper w/ glue on the outside, ($0.25) softshell vynil, ($0.70) lint-free treated polypropylene, ($0.10, I also use these as lens cloths) The infuriating part is that (locally) the more expensive (a slieve/envelope) the more likely it is to utterly destroy the disc; and I cannot tell the meddling fools to buy DAC brand model # whatever, because they will always buy one of their more expensive offerings that will throroughly destroy the discs. --- Actually; I'm reasonbly certain that DAC's "monitor attached floppy disc storage"(eqv) was actually designed to erase the discs using the degauss feature, and that the english product name was some sort of translation error. This would also explain why their discontinued "hardshell CD disc carrier"(eqv) seemed so well designed to consistently put a scratch at the centre of the disc when opened.

For some reason, whenever I buy a used Family Guy or Simpsons DVD from Cex, the discs are scratched to hell and back. Luckily, if the disc is unplayable or if it looks like it would be unplayable, they'll repair it for you for free.

Equestrian Idiot best option would be to buy it brand new on Amazon for like 10 quid

some day steam will shut down and all your games will goo bye bye

nothing you cant fix with A9LH and you can still play your games just not access online features

You mean like how Nintendo closed down the ENTIRE online network for the Wii, DS, DSi and Gamecube? Nintendo has a terrible track-record.

***** Until they one day don't. Flash memory hasn't got an unlimited life-span you know, it will get demagnetised unless you keep playing them.

Super Hans You sound like a stupid fuck who clearly is unable to properly take in information and retain it. I clearly said, that when I do borrow people's things I treat it better than my own because I would want them to allow me to borrow their things in the future. This is why I don't like borrowing other peoples things because I have make sure I take extra care of it. With my stuff, if it gets damaged is on me, but I damage other peoples things it effects them. They won't have my trust and they won't be happy that their item is damage. I have borrowed things before and I made sure I returned them exactly the way it was when given (sometimes in better condition) If it was dirty when given to me I will clean it for you then return it. Which is probably why my friends still let me borrow their things, and willing offer me the password to their HW/ebook page in case I needed it, because trust me to not fuck up their grade, or make charges on their account. And would help me, there is also friends that I can call on right now if I need a ride or help with anything, because I have helped them in the past, and they know I am also a reliable friend the can count on if they need anything. I also said I don't LIKE letting people borrow my things. NEVER did I say I didn't let people do so. Get it correct, you fool. So make sure you know what the hell you are talking about first before making assumptions and mindlessly running that dicksucker of yours. And to ***** , stop encouraging stupidity.

ikr? when I was younger I let my friends play my games..what do they do? 1. I told my cousin to NOT SAVE A GAME FILE on my Emerald which had a lv 75 Blaziken..he SAVED A GAME FILE FULL OF SWEARS AND GOT ME IN TROUBLE WITH THE SWEARS, 2. let a few friends play with my PlayStation and they start throwing the discs around like freaking Frisbees! I lost two games (took me 4 years to find one, the other disappeared completely!), and they got scratched up..., and 3. I told one friend to play one game that doesn't have save files..and he goes through my whole bag, pulling out stuff that isn't even game related and some of the stuff shouldn't have been out in public..as I"m a girl and had just reached puberty at that time... ;~;' and I also had stuff STOLEN from me..so I don't lend stuff out anymore. I don't take stuff from others either...except with their permission and supervision. At most I use others's copies of Pokemon to transfer Pokemon from my older games over to my newer games..

One word. Children. Or Idiots. Or Idiot Children Depending on your outlook.

DragonTamer Shadria I'm so glad I didn't let people borrow my PS2 game or without keeping a close eye on them. I have a PS2 game that I bought in the past that is now worth over 80+ dollars on ebay used. I've seen used one go for more. And guess what? It is in pristine condition because I took care of it and didn't lend it out. I played it several times and there is not one scratch on it. If I lend something out to someone I just have to make sure they are like me and care more about other people's stuff just as much as their. If the person does not take care of their own things, avoid. That is a sign you're will be damaged or missing when it comes time for them to return it.

yup. I wouldn't let anyone borrow my copy of EarthBound (which cost me $180!)-not now, not ever. Not that anyone around where I live has a SNES anymore.

i use coasters as shitty games. I will try your version :)

Was it inside the disc itself(like the way you put it in the player)? If so, an XBOX game I had had the same thing on it. Have no idea how it happened.

@@ettoresalvatore9437 oh sounds like a cool idea actaully use shit games as coasters a cool estatic

ok?

did you completely miss him saying that in the video?

Yeah.

whats the joke

+Double Step Castillo U

Mel B and Eddie Murphy went out for a time and she became pregnant and denied that the kid was his for a time.

Good idea. Personally I use an Altoids tin to hold screws.

llibertyGamer I personally use toothpaste to remove scratches.

I know a guy who owns a disk buffer, he got it cheap from a local tech store that was closing.

Ivan Simpson toothpaste never worked for me. :(

Brady Turner Yep,, toothpaste can be tricky, you have to use certain types, as anything with crystals etc will make the disc worse.

+ClonesDream Maybe that's why they made cases that have a little button in the middle to release it, did you think about using that?

***** That old case didn't have it, it just clipped on to the inside of the disc and you had to pull them apart and release the disc, no button to push.

ClonesDream Can you show me an image of this case?

+computerman789 I would have said the same thing if I had not had the same experience with a cheepo PC game I got years ago. The case didn't have a press button thing in the middle, just a bit of plastic that was supposed to spring away when you pulled the disk. Thank god it didn't snap when I pulled it out.. Bent so much!

+ClonesDream i have a immense fear of doing that to my games.

Discs only get scratched in systems when the disc is being read and even then it doesn't seem to make a lot of difference. I've completed spongebob squarepants battle for bikini bottom for xbox (which I highly recommend to any playstation 2/early model playstation 3/xbox/xbox 360/gamecube/wii owner) and and when I bought it the disc was in like new condition and I inspected the disc after I completed the game and the disc didn't really seem different at all.

mac john I've put hours into Spyro the Dragon and it's scratched to hell.

If you're taking the theory that systems scratch discs a lot from the playstaion 1 then I have really nothing to say on that because I've never played on the playstation 1 I've always played on my brother's early model playstation 3 or my playstation 2 and I can't guess the quality the the playstation 1's disc destroying abilities because the oldest disc reader I've ever used is from 2002 with my model 1 xbox (which has a really bad reader and can only read absolutely brand new discs) which never just destroyed a disc while I was playing it.

Any sandbox game really.

***** that's why when anyone wants to play a game of mine i put it in for them lol and take it out for them

Same lol

+Techno sailor Do you whip them if they dare to get scratched?

***** Shut up Flanders.

CoD 4?

+Liquid Ocelot ALL CoD's... except maybe the original & maybe WaW.

+ContraZombie4 The older CoDs were good. And the modern ones aren't all terrible. Honestly, the games don't deserve the horrible reputation they have. By no means are they Games of the Year or anything, but they're still fun. They're decent military shooters; not really innovative, and a bit bland, but they're fun enough. It's the player base that's really shit. Absolutely horrendous people, and toxic as hell. It's one of many cases of decent games being dragged down by shitty, stupid players. That's why I like the older ones better; more focus on the single player than the newer ones, and the single player mode was always the best part, in my opinion. And Zombies was plenty of fun, if you had friends to play with. I loved Zombies.

+Mr. Kitty Saves The World Zombies is the ONLY redeeming mode. Multiplayer, even with JUST friends, if fucking garbage. Using dumb tactics like only using SMG's, which are REALLY OP, & throwing C4, OR EVERYONE'S personal _favorite_ getting a kill by hurling a grenade across the map. & minus story, the campaign "challenges" your ability to walk sraight forward through linear areas & demanding you be able to take orders. What _fun_...

well, it stands to reason that the better/more popular a game is, the more its played, the more likely it is to get scratched. Of course, its pretty irrelevant in this age of digital distribution

RIP my copy of Oblivion from very slightly bumping into the side of it while it was running.

While that's better then placing the disc face up leaving the disc face down is still not good because dust will get on it and the printed side will get scratched making the disc look just a tad bit worse.

Zex Eios lol rub it in with a banana (it works for real)

That's what I do

Why not do what I do, and vacuum wrap your discs.

E Quinn use a banana peel.....the potassium rids of scratches

I don't think he meant it literally. If he had lacked an exaggeration when talking about something intended for comedic purpose, his improvised comedy would fail. I'm fun at parties.

GameFactz Oh, OK. =)

@@Roadent1241 Yeah, mostly an American thing, I think.

They must ship them to gamestops here in 'Murica... Every single game store I visit at least has one copy of Modern Warfare 2 for both platforms.

do animals eat my favorite game of all time? BURN THEM WITH FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRE!

Fix: Don't set your damn disks down on the shiny side that needs to be clean to read data... Why do some people not understand this and think it's okay to set the discs down with the label face up?

Mmhmm. Also make sure no one else ever does that. Don't ever dare clean it with a soft, lintless cloth, it's still too sensitive. Better hope no one sets even a sheet of paper on that black-side up disk. If you put any spin on the disk while it's in a case, pray you had no pressure behind it. They were just plain too fragile. Absolute trash.

FDJustin Over exaggerate much? I've cleaned mine with proper cleaning cloths plenty and all of mine are still fine. I never let anyone else handle my games, they shouldn't be left out for it to be possible for someone to set something on them, and you shouldn't spin them around in the case like they're a toy. Yeah they weren't as durable as discs now, but that doesn't mean it was hard to keep them from being damaged if you took basic care of them.

Loponstorm I exaggerate a little, but no more than the idea of spinning them in the case "like a toy". I know it's hard to imagine, but when the playstation was released people were still inexperienced with disks. They would get spun as people grabbed for the edges, or pushed down on a side to try and get leverage. Plenty of times the disks would fall out when you opened the case, so you had to learn to open the case horizontally. And no, I'm not exaggerating much when it comes to cleaning: I have managed to scratch PS games with a soft cloth. Not a microfiber cloth; didn't know about them back then. Did you not have any friends or siblings? The more people that get involved, the more likely disks are to be mistreated, and they _do_ scratch extremely easily.

I don't need to imagine. I grew up with a Playstation, my second console after the SNES. CD's existed for plenty of years before Playstation was released, so I knew how to handle the disks and open the cases, and we had the cleaning cloths we'd used for CD's as well. I did have friends and siblings (tho out of my siblings I was the only one to play video games) but I didn't loan them out, and when I'd take them over to a friends house or they'd be over, we'd be responsible for our own games, as our parents taught us. I never had a single Playstation game become unreadable, and I had a lot.

smexizool :-)

And yet somehow my copy of Borderlands stutters like hell at times. Whoever owned it must have seriously not taken care of it.

And yet my pristine looking copy of Dark Knight hiccups a lot. Not sure why, but maybe it's a firmware issue?

It came free with my Wii, it was shite.

J Hughes i had it on the ps3 the wii one sounds worse

Shame really cause the book was really good

The dyl Pickle Do good books ever get made into good games? I'm genuinely interested haha.

J Hughes Megami Tensei. If you're unfamiliar with it, Megami Tensei is a Japanese sci-fi/cyberpunk novel, turned into a video game in 1987 by Atlus. Now, Megami Tensei is a decently big game franchise and nobody remembers the novel. The MegaTen sub series Persona is more famous than mainline MegaTen too.

Deleting games is just wrong. Any gamer knows that a game save needs to be kept until you hate that game and never play it, and even then you keep it just in case. Others that delete data need to be deleted themselves. If I have someone try a game and they decide to delete my data, I will punch them in the face and force them to play up to the point that I was as, while collecting all the collectibles. No one should ever mess with someones game saves. Ever.

WHY YOU DELETE GAME SAVES THIS DUDZ COUSIN!?

The thing is, all the data is located on the top side, scratches on shiny side doesn't do much unless they're very deep. Scratches on the top side is pretty much a death sentence though. So maybe the wife is actually the genius in that relationship.

Matthias Bach Yes, but the disc doesn't have to read through the top side, that's just where the data is. Scratches on the bottom still disrupt the laser trying to read the disc, and require fixing. The top needs to be punctured to damage the data, not just get scuffed up a bit.
