Hey, i downloaded Bioshock right. Played it for 4 hours, no problems at all. Saved it, turned off the console. Now i just went to play it again, but when i load my saved game, in the middle of the load screen i get 'This disc is unreadable' yet it hasn't been out anywhere except for when i took it out the burner... anyone else have this problem for any other games??

MS and the FBI are comeing to your door and tracking you down. But pretend you were playing a different game: say Forza, i'd say it's a bad disc. But you are not playing Forza 2, you are playing a game that didn't come out yet so. slap.

I have this exact same problem - well, apart from the piracy bit... My BioShock backup worked perfectly the first two times I played it and then I got the 'disc unreadable' error. I even burned another copy and it did the same. All other games work fine.

What gives?!

Whut ya ganna dee?

Well I'm not retarded and a lot of people do have problems playing Bioshock but my problem was that my DVD-Drive laser is weaksauce so I ordered a new one and it works flawlessly now. I was using imgburn with verbatim dvd+r dl with ixtreme 1.2c on a ms28 that was about 3 months old. Guess it was just a case of badluck with me.

Has anyone heard that with Bioshock that there's a bug in it that makes it freeze every 3-5 seconds if you play for more than 3-4hrs? Apparently resetting the console fixes the problem, and it may only be with PAL copies. I'm talking original disc too, not a back-up.

I have an even weirder problem now. Tried to change the power of my drive's laser to read the disc better, then found out that it wasn't that at all; if I remove my hard disk, BioShock runs fine. But with the hard disk, no chance! any ideas?

I noticed a similar problem... Bioshock was the last game I backed up.. it worked for a bit... but now it just says "disk is unreadable". And ever since this game started doing this my other ones are begining to say the same thing. I think I may need a new laser... thats the only solution I can think of.

I've had zero problems with Bioshock. And at most I've played 9 hours straight. And the problems are only happening to a handfull of people. Because it's not happening to everyone (or atleast the majority of users), I'd be more willing to believe it's a problem with the 360 than a problem with the game.

Yeah I'd agree, definately hardware based.

try removing your hard drive and see if it loads then... Works for me! I just have to figure out why so I can save my games...

You could prob use that caned duster and just spray it in the drive instead of taking it apart.

it's all good and thx for the help.

as for the other people with problems, is Bioshock the only game with these problems? when my bioshock didn't work it wasn't alone as madden 08 had the same problem and ncaa 08 but to a much lesser extent. It seems the most recent of games wore out my laser.
