I actually dont have it anymore becuase it brought it to school to show everyone(becuase i was the only one that had it as it was only the 2nd day it was out)and i gave it to some kid becuase i didnt want it. I guess i should have kept it but i was to excited playing twisted metal and watching Spider Man II.

EDIT8 The feature on gamespot was about taking UMDS apart to clean them and see if you could put them together again. Th only way to put them together again is to glue them

why is it loose, did u drop it or something. try crazy glue, but be careful not to get inside of the disc.

I broke my untold legends like that too... bet you can't guess why.

Anyway, just take the invisible plastic cover and throw it away. Keep the disc in the casing and put it in the UMD drive and it works (at least for me it did.)
