X2 full screen errors?
I get freezes and glitches on the full screen version of X2, at various places throughout the disc. I've tried with 3 different DVD players and 3 brand new discs, and get the same errors. They are not present on the widescreen version. Anyone else getting these errors?

Easy problem to solve. First, place the full-screen discs on a hard flat surface. Next, you'll need a sledgehammer. I'm sure you can find one around the house, or use some similar tool. Now, precision is key. You must smash both discs AT THE SAME TIME, otherwise you risk damaging your hard flat surface... That should do it. Let me know if it does not.

I would call up Fox using the information in the store forum. This, according the facts you've presented, is no isolated error and therefore should be addressed.

Oh, and I agree with the first reply.
