Thanks for your reply! Whats weird is that I burned 2 other games successfully, (though I needed to burn each twice because one failed each time). Could it be the burner itself? I know Verbatim's are the way to go, but would using Memorex DVD+R DLs solve it?

I tried to install it to the Xbox..and then 35% in, it tells me its unreadable. The other 2 failed attempts won't even hit 0% on the installation screen. I've burned 2 games successfully already with the same burner, this game already took 3 of my verbatim dvd+r DLs, 2 burned successfully but couldn't be read. What may be the problem?
