Multi-Game DVD Backups?

lunchboxPhil · #1 09-07-2003, 01:10

I have backuped my X-Box collection of games onto DVD-R's using the Craxtion program. It is an excellent program and includes a wizard for Multigame disk creation. The structure of the multidisks is simple where it just creates a seperate folder for each game to be included, copies the entire contents of each game into the created folders and creates a new bootable .exe file. When you put the game in your X-Box it works similar to a demo disk where you simply chose the game you want to play, and then it boots the games from their respective folders.

Onto my question: is there any type of program that is capable of doing this for PS2 backups?

People have been asking about this recently, ESPECIALLY as regards putting multiple CD games onto one DVD.

The short answer is... in theory yes but in practice no, not yet and maybe never.

Could it be similar to demo disks? Just wondering if they're the same concept regarding multiple games on a disk.

At this moment in time for your question, no

Demo discs are done specifically by Sony for promotional reasons. They have the original code, and the demos are acually modified on the binary level to work from the same disc.
