Could someone please tell me (or give me a link to somewhere that will tell me) what program I need make a DVD-R backups of ps2 games, and how to do it? Thanks.


Oh... let me add... I don't want to make a dvd to dvd-r straight copy, I want to burn a DVD image file (for example *.iso) to a DVD, I just need to know what settings I would need to set (and which program).

use my friend prassi primodvd 2.0 or nero.
and the 2 programs is very good to make back up from your dvd-rom to dvd-r.

I really new to this, but, I wanted to burn a copy of Tekken 4 on a DVD burner. I bought the DVD-r, and my teacher is gonna sneak me in to use the burner, so this is sort of a one-shot deal. You siad I need a disc/game image? I mean, I can't just copy the game straight to a DVD??? Help!

by the way, Can PS2 read DVD-RW's? The guy at best buy sold me the wrong one, damnit. no wonder it was the MOST EXPENSIVE ONE. I just need to know if I need to take it back and get a DVD-r instead
