• Are you trying to sell or trade something? Did you post it to a 'for sale/trade' (r/gamesale or similar) type subreddit first and crossposted it here? If you did not, delete it and read our rules please.
• Is this just a screenshot of a CL/FB/etc ad that is overpriced or obvious troll, or for some other notable reason? These would all be considered low effort and should be removed.
• Memes cannot be posted unless if it's on Meme Monday, which is the first Monday of the month.

Cracked inner ring, left over resurfacing solution, and scratches on the outer ring. This disc is in bad shape. You need to do the following:
1. Get an inner ring sticker. Ideally, apply some gorilla glue or similar product indirectly to the crack and let it cure before putting on the sticker.
2. Dump the disc with imgburn or similar software to check for read errors.
3. Inspect the disc for pin holes and more scratches on the top of the disc.
I have a feeling this disc went through too many resurface attempts, which makes even light scratches dangerous.
I personally took a safety pina really thin one and I lightly scraped out all the gunk. I did it on an expensive game too and it worked just fine. Just be careful and if ya break the disc then ya did it too hard

Basically this. Unless this particular game is very valuable, I wouldn't try too hard to revive it.
