This just happened recently apparently but when I try to put in either Gears Of War 3 or COD4 they just say Unrecognized Disc? Gears Of War 3 is fine, no scratches and COD4 always worked and I hadn't played it in weeks. I've tried other games but they work. I haven't tried ALL my games yet but I still don't get why THESE 2 aren't working.
All I want to know if anybody else had this problem and if it's fixable or would it just be easier to buy new copies of GoW3 and COD4?
Edit: It actually did this with my BC2 also. Disc was clear as can be but DID NOT want to read no matter what.
I have an Xbox Slim btw that I got back in May of this year.

Sounds more like the xbox than the games, can you take your discs that don't work on your console to a friend/neighbours house to see if it works there?

That happened with my old Xbox 360 Arcade. I believe it was a common issue for the disc drive to die with older consoles, much like the original Playstation 2. I replaced it with an Xbox 360 Elite and haven't had an issue since.

I let my cousin borrow my Gears Of War 3 disc to see if it works. I don't have the money to buy another Xbox slim and I don't have enough time to send my Xbox into Microsoft and get it back.
Worst comes to worst I'm going to have to find a cheap Xbox slim.

Mine does it occasionally with games. Just wipe the disks with a smooth cloth and you're good to go.

Happened to me today with Smackdown VS Raw 2011. I've wiped it 3 times and restarted my xbox and it still doesn't work.
EDIT: Tried WWE All-Stars and that wouldn't work either. Tried Mafia 2 and that worked. So I ejected my Mafia 2 disk, put the SVR2011 disc in and it works.

Sounds like a disk drive issue. These drives are garbage. The best bet to minimize the impact is to install any game you play to your hard drive.
