Yesterday, an unhappy Xbox 360 user filed a class action lawsuit against Microsoft over damage done to his discs by the console. What does the gamer want out of the lawsuit? All his games replaced or "equal monetary compensation" for them.
The gamer claims that the laser in the Xbox 360 caused permanent damage to his retail bought games and that the attached documentation that comes with the system does not mention anything or advise against moving the console while it is turned on.
The lawsuit also states that damage can occur while the console is stationery.
The lawsuit comes on the heels of Microsoft's $1 billion USD move to give customers warranty extensions and free repairs if there system experiences general hardware failure.
