As we reported yesterday, Microsoft has been slapped with yet another lawsuit, this one alleging that the platform holder knew all about the Xbox 360’s tendency to scratch discs yet did nothing to fix the problem.

Microsoft, to be fair, has made no excuses for this. No, why make excuses when you can just point fingers and downplay the problem? In lieu of trying to explain itself, MS has instead decided to argue the “other people do it too” defense, claiming that the disc scratch errors are “not unique” to the 360 and that “too much movement of any game console” will result in a scratched disc. Of course, “too much” can mean anything.
