Last night, I started playing forza motorsport 2 and all of a sudden, my 360 resetted itself, and afterwards the disc drive wouldn't open and the power light on the 360( light in the middle of the ring of light) kept flashing whenever the 360 was on. I called 4MYXBOX, and they had no idea what was going on with it. So, it started working a while after I called them, and I played some more forza for about 10 minutes before it crashed again. Now, about 3 hours later, it's working again, but this time I immediately took out forza and started playing halo 2. It hasn't crashed yet! And I've been playing for more than 40 minutes. I also played some demos I had. Does Forza motorsport 2 mess up xbox 360 consoles???

I just looked at the article about the 3 year warranty for xbox 360 on gamespot. It says at one part that xbox 360 players have been lately finding that forza 2 motorsport is "bricking" consoles! :( Does this mean I can't play forza?

Well, then explain why it hasn't broken on me yet, when every single time I had forza in it broke after about 10 minutes. (its been a good 45 minutes so far.)

So everytime you put in Forza 2, it "broke".

Wow you must be rich to be able to replace all those Forza 2 copies.

Seriously, go look up "broke" in the dictionary.

GAMES DO NOT BREAK CONSOLES.

Oh, terribly sorry, I thought that you would maybe understand what I meant by "broke". What I meant by "broke", is the console itself resets and then the power light starts to flash green. Also, my disc drive won't open. This has yet to occur after about an hour of playing halo 2, and the shadowrun demo. In fact, I'm just about ready to try playing forza 2 just to see if it happens to reset shortly after I start playing.

I've played Forza 2 for 12+ plus hours, and it hasn't done anything to harm my 360.
