Unhappy How do I copy a 2.91gb Game!

Hi this may seem a dumb question to most of you, but here goes I was trying to make a backup copy on the PS.2 game Tony Hawks Pro skater3. I put the original in my p.c. drive to copy. properties said it was 2.91 gb.. how is it posible to copy when most blank media is in the range of 700mb-900mb! can this be done or is there larger blank media I don't know about
Thanks Paul.

or you could rip it to CD-R...

but that would involve a lot more questions if you have not done it before, finding a rip kit that works, a lot of foul language, several coasters, a bit more foul language, and a game minus movies etc.

As BG has said, get yourself a Pioneer A04 (£195 at the moment) and you will be sorted.

Ripkits are being made very easy to work with nowadays. Some do absolutely all the work for you. They are called one button ripkits. Others may require a few programs and a little thought.

Give a ripkit a try, you may be impressed with how easy they are nowadays.

....... or you may be dissapointed about the missing data you have ripped from the original game.

for example, I heard that to rip TH3 you remove the individual character movies.

Tyler - I'm not disagreeing with you its just if you have the option to buy a DVD-burner why continue ripping DVD games to CD-R???

Psx_paul, I was only making a suggestion. Some people still think a dvd burner is out of reach money wise. Even still some think that dvd-r prices coulds stand to go lower.

I also believe you make a good point though. The thing is most of these people are kids (ages around 16) and their parents just wont get them a dvd burner.
