Does anyone have any idea why my 360 gets disc read errors when I play NCAA 07 or 08 and NBA Live 07? It only happens when I play EA games and it really pisses me off. Does anyone have any idea why it does this?

what is the difference between gold and silver? is silver free or do they both cost something? i know all of you say the $50 a year is way worth it but i was just wondering

silver is the one where you can download content from the marketplace such as demos, videos, arcade games, etc. it's free.

gold is the one that you need to play with people online. it has a fee, although i think that you get a free month of gold when you first get a 360. someone correct me if i'm wrong.

when you guys say HDMI, is that the three extra cords you plug into your TV besides the original white, yellow, and red?

i didn't know if they all came with those extra 3 colored cords or not

HDMI is another type of interface. It is one cord that carries audio and video.

I have this same problem with NCAAF 07 and 08. It's gotten to the point where I basically don't even play it anymore. But it has to be the type of disc they use or something because no other games do it (that I've played)

COD4 does it sometimes, but that is the only one besides any EA game.

does anyone have a suggested general time limit on how long to keep the 360 on? me and my roommate pulled a 5 and a half hour session on mine last night. i've heard different opinions on this and just wanted to get some other thoughts on here. i've got a newer model(made in november 2007). i think it's ok and i'm probably being paranoid about it. but i just don't want this thing crapping out on me after all the horror stories i've heard.
