More DVD Conversions

Why arent there more cd to dvd conversions for pc games like the recent doom 3 crack. when im backing up my games i really dislike wasting more disks than i need to. This is especially the case with games like UT2004 and Farcry. I would really like to see more of this type of conversion.

Are people really that lazy when it comes to switching cds 2 or 3 times during the install/play period?

Anyways, with Fat Americans being reluctant to purchase DVD Roms for their PC's, games will continue to come out on CD Media. If they did use DVD Roms, then people would not need to do all that conversion crap.

We just see it as a waste of energy changing CDs. We think one step ahead of the world.

Farcry can be bought on DVD!

@ Asimov

Why didnt you just buy Farcry on DVD! It would have saved you the trouble of converting it!
