I order rival schools from ebay and i got it today but while hoping the package i made a small crack. I try super gluing it and then taping it but it still wouldn't work but the black disc icon will appear on my playstation 3 when i put the game in but as soon as i click on it. It just loads for a long time and said it has a error

p.s. it's a small crack in the far edge where you hold the disc. I just worry super gluing the crack was a bad idea

is the crack all the way thought the disk?

Well I think there are products you can by that will fix the crack.  Or you can try toothpaste.  I heard that can work.

EDIT:  OH wait... those fixes may be for scratches...  ooooh...

Giving the nature of disks, i'm surprised it loaded at all. I don't think you've got a lot of options mate.

well it's not a big crack it's where you hold the disc in your hands. I'm just worry the super glue might of damage it. Just not sure how to get the super glue out but i saw a video on youtube and the guy said you just put tape on the crack and hold it in place.

well would toothpaste take out the super glue from the disc?

toothpaste is best. put a blob on at the innermost part of a scratch and rub it towards the edge of the disc. do not rub towards the center or sideways! this has worked for me on cds and ps2 games.

If it's truly a crack and not a scratch, none of the recommendations in this thread thus far will work.  In fact, your only option would be to purchase a replacement disc.  Cracked discs are extremely difficult, extremely expensive, and often impossible to repair -- it would be far easier and cheaper to just buy a replacement.
