Some games will be more then what a DVD disc you can buy over the counter can hold (4.7GB)..

[Jimbo2000]

jeepers.. really?

what do you do about this?

tkae better care of originals

[Tosh]

yes take good care of them

[Jimbo2000]

surely that only applies to a limited number of games though.

You can get a sony DRU700A dual layer DVD burner (4.7GB + 4.7GB) now for under $300. The dual layer dvd's are not available yet but they will be soon.

Its not realy as simple as just copying the ps2 dvd.. there is a bit more into it than just that.

But it still can be done.... and now that single layer dvd's are ~80 cents each and DVD burners are about $150 its worth the invertment.

Yeah not many games at all are more than 4.7G.....

There are a few tricks like downsampling the movies to make them fit on a single layer (DVD5) disk.

so it can be done relatively easily with the right programs and a decent burner?

It is a piece of piss... but its not as easy as sticking in the dvd and press copy....

For example xbox

1. You can not read a Xbox game disk in your pc.

2. You need to have a modded xbox.

3. Connect your xbox to your pc.

4. Install the evoX dashboard

5. From you PC Ftp to you xbox and copy the dvd to you pc.

6. Retail patch your *.xbe (for older mod chips)

7. Downsample movies if its over 4.7gig

5. Burn to dvd.

So yes its a piece of piss but not as easy as one may think.
