Finding a CD/DVD copy that works.
castletonsnob:
I was able to get to Evrae in my last copy of FFX, which I'd estimate to be the halfway point of the game, and I think this copy might be in about the same shape or better.

I would boot up the disc and memory card in another console and see if it has the same issues at the same fail points.
I opened a dvd copy of Donnie Darko a few weeks back and was bummed to see it fail when the second layer tried to play. Brand new disc. No finger prints. No scratches. Failed at exact same point in 3 other players as soon as it hit the second layer.

The guy failed with 3 different copies of the same game though
also movie dvd's generally lower production quality and bad batches.

Yep. That’s why I suggested trying a different console. It doesn’t sound like a disc issue.
If the other console craps out in same spot though, you’ll know for sure without having to try resurfacing or replacing system parts.

Why don't you think it's a disc issue?
