It's always the scariest part

Press down on the button until the game is released and then pick up the disk. Don't pry one part up while pressing the button you retard.

The only way I got over this fear is that I saw a GameStop employee bend the disk when I traded some games in so I was like oh, well, I don't have to be afraid anymore

I remember when I was little I got mad at my brother, so I broke all his games in two.
