Just curious since it looks like the PS2 games are DVD's if I were to make a backup copy of a game I own would I have to use a DVD-R or a regular CD-R?

If the game is on a DVD you need to burn it onto a DVD.

CD's hold 650-700MB

DVD's hold 4.3GB or more if they are dual-layer

If they make the game on a DVD it is obviously because it will not fit on a standard CD.

On the games it says DVD ROM meaning its a DVD correct?

^ YES! lol
Some games u can burn on cd's, but you have to download the image files off the net. And when u put it on cd, since they're so "small" you basically lose most of the sound, all the cut scences...basically everything outside of the actual game. I have a few of these, and they suck hardcore. Theres a place by me that sells dvd copies, that look almost identical for the real thing, and only $15 each, so that's what I do [img]smile.gif[/img]
