It depends on if the game you are trying to backup is cd based or dvd based......
Look on the back of the original game case, or on the disc itself...It will say either "Compact Disc" or "DVD-ROM"...
The easiest way to backup a cd based game is with Clone CD.
You can rip dvd based games to cdr but it is time consuming and a royal pain in the A$$.....
Also, what type of mod chip do you have (or will you be getting) to play the backups......

You probably have DVD rips.....(which suck in my opinion)
Regardless, since they are on CD-R's now you can back them up using clone cd (if your cd burner is compatible w/clone cd)

Well you have to have a DVD-ROM in order to read the disc.....
Other than that I can't help you....I DO NOT RIP.....Too me its not worth the time or effort....And some games, after you rip them, they are not worth playing anymore because you had to remove so much stuff to get it to fit on a cd-r.....Its well worth buying a dvd writer....

TylerDurden, one of the mods on this forum, rips games all of the time... I'm sure he will be able to help you in this.....

Also, you really need to find out what type of mod chip you have...Some chips will not play dvd rips over 700mb (I think thats the size)
