Well...*ahem*.... this is awkward. My Xbox 360 started working properly again without the disk tray making the grinding noise just for it to stop me using disk based games today.
I got in today, had The Orange Box in and decided I wanted to play something else. Now, instead of it opening the disk tray and allowing me to take out the game, it, to my surprise opened with no disk there. Now a game going missing is bad enough, even worse when your 360 has actually eaten the disk but it couldn't just stop at that. Oooh no, it had to top that and make sure I couldn't play any disk based games at all. The disk tray now refuses to shut, it starts to, makes a little whirring noise and opens fully out again. The disk it ate is stopping the tray from closing and the Xbox 360 will not push it back.
Basically, i'm screwed. So far i've found no way to get the disk out and can't think of any without damaging the console. It is out of warranty so getting a repair and my disk back for free is out of the question. To top that off, I can't find a price on the Xbox site anywhere so i've no idea whether I should buy a brand new one or get it fixed. I have no idea how I would go about sending it off with the disk tray open anyways.
So there you go, quality hardware from Micro$oft right there. Here's hoping I get it sorted out this week - I have an original Xbox game to play online while I still can.
