I gotta blame the disks which are old and well used.
Perhaps another member has got working scp images they could share of this game.
As you can see from the photo above I do own it ..so not asking for no reason.

You can try cleaning the disk itself with alcohol as well. You can do this through the access window with a cotton swab but if that does not work and you are not worried about possibly destroying the case you can very carefully pop the disk case open and remove the disc itself. 

Back in the day I had to do this a few times on 5.25" disks to recover data after liquid had been spilled on then disk. The 5.25" disks are much easier in this regards. A few months ago I saw someone on YouTube do this with some 3.5" discs  but he took good discs and swapped them into the original game disc cases and then wrote the image to them. A neat way to save original game discs when the media has gone bad.
