The problem is in the coding of the game. When you rip a game the files are saved with a new DATE on them. The game is set to look for changes in the DATE. When it finds a change, it is set to freeze or do some other interesting and problematic features in the games.

When making a 1-1 copy of a dvd game the DATES remain the same as when they were first made. So in effect the game doesnt know it is a copy.
