Hi there,
I have tried to copy my ps2 game to make a backup not so long ago but didnt suceed. I also tried copying the files of the disc to my hard drive and then burning it as a data disc but it still didnt work. But now my original disc has gone corrupt as it has lots of scratches due to my little baby brother messing around with it. Luckily, i still have the files of that game stored on my pc's hard drive in a folder.
How can i burn this onto a dvd and play my precious game once again. I already have ordered swap magic as i understand that it is required to play back up games.
Also what type of dvd media is compatible to be used with ps2's...do i use DVD-R or DVD+R.
Please let me know what i need to do....even if i have nto purchase new software, by all means i want to start playing my game. Thanks people!

I'm pretty sure you can use Alcohol 120% to copy the DVD to your hard drive. I haven't used it to burn though. It does have an image burning option, so if you had the right type of disc and a Modchip, it should work.

I've heard of people doing this, but I have never seen any proof. If its possible, you would most liklely need to have a special disc writing software to write the data to the disc. Not to mention you would most likely need a special type of disc. I think your best bet would be to just throw down the money and just buy the game. It will save you a lot of time and effort.

Well
I'm using Ashampoo to burn cds and dvds. Compared to other free burners it's easy to use and it works with any type of files. Link here: http://bitly.com/1sW2w9f
It's a very good program and easy to use.
Best

My understanding is that it can't be done, I'd go onto eBay and get a second game and hide it from the kid.

burning games is illegal just a heads up and and you need a certain type of disc that they dont just sell to the public.
