how much room on the hd does a game take up? i havent done this with any game coz i am worried i will run out of space.

It may become an issue if you have an older 20GB model, but you should still be able to put on at least a couple of games.

I currently have 4 games installed on my 60GB version and I've still got over 27GB left.

i thought it wouldnt really be feasable for me. i just asked incase they had some good way of compressing the game. i only have a 20gb and there is only 7.4gb left on it. i dont want to be left with no room for game saves or downloading the odd demo.

I'm going to take the disc to a Blockbuster store tomorrow, I will report back whether it works or not.

Good news, it seems to be fixed. I took it to Blockbuster, paid 2 quid and they put it in a machine for 8 mins, took it out, dried the disc and although the scratch was still visible (but only just) the Xbox could read it. I did however notice a slight whirring sound and after playing the game for 5 mins it froze and said it could not read the disc. I opened and closed the disc tray again, re-started the game and it seemed to be working fine. Also there was no whirring noise (apart from the normal noisy console). Hopefully, it will continue to work...or at least until Fifa 10 come out! So thanks to those who replied and I hope this is useful to others who may experience a similar problem.
