Someone HELP me out please

[J-Dawg]

im a little new to this stuff. i used to back up DC games by d/l them from mirc, and burning them with nero.

however i dont know how to backup playstation2 games. can i just buy a game, and then burn it, or do i have to download the iso's and then burn them.

ive read charlies responses, but im still a little confused of what i have to do. also, is there any other thing to do the swap trick with, cuz i dont want gameshark.

please help me out.

thanks
