anyone know of a place that will fix a scratched game? there was a store back home that was called games fx that did this for $2-$3 but there are none up at college. so if anyone can help me out i would appreciate it. also on one note i already called gamestop and they don't nor could they tell me of anyone who did.

well i'm looking for a place to do this for $2-$3 like the place back home did, i don't want to spend over $20 to fix a scratched game, especially since i don't really need to keep a spin doctor. plus i think the machines the other places use are of better quality. also i would be willing to try an online site that did this, i'm looking at some but if anyone has any experience with them let me know.

FWIW, I've used white toothpaste and windex to refresh scratched CDs, perhaps you can google for similar methods for games.

Use rubbing alcohol and a cotton shirt. It fixed one of my games completely (except for the last level! evil ).

What does that do? Melt the scratches?

EDIT I was talking about the rubbing alcohol method.

I'll have to try that. Water does absolutely nothing.

You know, you could just google like he says instead of having him write a step-by-step of something you can find in less than a minute. There are so many guides online how to fix CDs...

I've said this before, but I wish someone would sticky "Please fucking google."

How to search is stickied in the rules, maybe they need to add Google to it.
