Default Gears of War 2 Limited Edition Warning

I pre-ordered a gears 2 lim. ed. and remembered about the problem with the alo 3 limited discs. I took a look at the gears 2 limited cases and the looked a lot like those for halo 3. I would recommend opening the box in the store infront of the cashier to make sure you can exchange the disc if it is scratched.

Yes. the disc can pop off of the plastic peice that holds it by the center. it could then scratch against the metal inside. if it is like the halo 3 case, put it in a sleeve, or glue a protective thin peice of fabric in the case on the side the bottom of the disc is facing. i would put it in a sleeve, though. unless you really want to put it in the case.

Good thing they don't sell this anymore. If I were to buy one that got scratched, I would be seething with anger -___- <(._.)>

Most games with a steel cases hves this problem. Why Microsoft or the responsible company for Packaging the disc make the steel case 'comfortable' for the disc inside.
