Is it possible to burn games onto a DVD-R disc with a CD-RW?

Hi there,
After browsing the forum, I have realised that CD-R backups of DVD games can wear the mechanics of the laser alot quicker than normal and you have to miss half of the game out and it takes ages to rip - Not Good! So, after much pondering, I wondered if it was possible to get a blank DVD-R disc and burn a game onto it using a CD Re-writer? Is this possible? Does it wear your CD-RW? Does it even WORK? Has anyone even tried it? It is just an idea so any help on the above subject would be great! Thanks for all your help in advance...

My PC:
Plextor W12/10/32A CD Re-writer,
LG DRD-8160B DVD-ROM drive,
AMD Athlon 1Ghz Processor,
512MB Ram,
NVidia Ge-Force2 MX Pro 64MB Graphics Card,

My PS2:
V4,
PAL,

Thanks again...
