Default Gummy disks present new problem for Halo 3

Quote:
WE ALL KNOW ABOUT the scratched Halo 3 disks, but there is another less talked about problem with the packaging, the hub falling off.

The DVD carrier hub is badly glued on to the metal package, and if you happen to pull it off, it leaves a gummy mess.

At least one reader didn't even notice this when he put his new Halo 3 disk in to the 360 and ended up with a gummy DVD that didn't want to open. In the end, it is far from a fatal blow for MS, but it is annoying. This package seems to be one of the worst designed since those DVD cases with the side clips. Anyone else having this problem? µ

LaWlZ at the similarities between packaging and the game itself, they both suck Legendarily(don't know if thas a word}

Haha, the Halo series is the ultimate FPS and anyone who isn't on his knees sucking sony **** would realize it...

It didn't sell so well and become popular because it sucked.

Stop Microsoft hating. It's not Microsoft's fault that the case hubs are coming off. Blame the sweat shop workers in China for skimping on glue.
