    Unreadable disk with a catch

    This is a known issue with Forza Horizon for some people. I'm not aware of any real fix, but if you search the forums you'll find suggestions that may have worked for some people, like clearing your Xbox cache, or deleting the download then installing something
    else first, so the Horizon download gets installed on a different part of the disk.

    But unfortunately, it's possible you'll just have to ask for your money back.

    You should have no problem getting your money back, but we can't help you here. You'll have to contact Xbox customer support:

  7. I have the same issue. Everything that support has said to do has failed. examples: delete the game and download a bunch of demos that fill the space the game took up. and clear the system cache 3 times and delete and redownload my profile as well as reset
    my system and unplug it. I even tried putting the game on a flash drive and still no luck. This proves it is not a problem with the data sectors of my hard drive. This has got to be a faulty bug with the marketplace of this game or its the game developers
    fault for putting this game with this bug up on the marketplace. I tried telling microsoft support they need to report this bug to the marketplace staff. I don't think they realized how big of an issue this is with everyone. The way this problem happens is
    i downloaded the game originally on my friends console using my profile and should be able to play on another console on my profile, but it always gives that annoying disc read error. The last step I'm going to soon try is license transferring to myself so
    that my console will get the rights completely. If this doesn't work then this game is NOT worth buying off the marketplace because you cannot play it on any other console other than the one you initially downloaded too. It won't matter if you technically
    even own it on your profile!
