I am afraid that if disc is to damaged you can't. On the other hand if you have other DVD with newer laser you could try to copy disc.

I suggest exchanging it at the store you bought it from.

A damaged disk likely means you cannot copy the file which is probably illegal anyway due to the EULA (End-user license agreement) and the disk would be missing some copy protection which means the game will not recognize the disk as authentic. Thus preventing the game from launching.
