The release of the PlayStation 3 console (also known as PS3) has certainly taken gaming to another level. The PS3 has transformed gaming with stunning graphics and blazing-fast processing power that were found only a few years ago on IBM supercomputers. With all this technology that the PS3 has to offer, gaming has certainly taken on a new meaning. However, these capabilities come at a cost, especially when you consider buying games, if these games get damaged, you can pay anywhere from $60 to $100 to replace them. To avoid this you can copy PS3 games thus protecting your originals.
If you search the internet or participate in PS3 game forums you will find a lot of information on this topic. Most likely, you already have DVD burning software on your PC, but you will find that when you insert your PS3 game into the burner, the software will not recognize it.
Fortunately, there is this software that can backup PS3 games, the process is quite simple, all you need is a PC with a DVD burner and special PS3 copy software. Another thing to keep in mind is the brand of blank dvds to copy ps3 games. I personally like Sony or Verbatim and have had good results with these. Using cheap blank DVDs may result in loss of quality of your PS3 copies.
To burn PS3 games, first put the game into your DVD burner and select the option (found on most DVD burning programs) to create an image of the game. This process may take 20-30 minutes, depending on your computer’s CPU and the speed of your DVD burner. After creating the image, remove the PS3 game and insert a blank DVD into your DVD burner and copy the PS3 game image to the blank DVD.
It should take 10-20 minutes to burn PS3 games to a blank DVD, it’s easier than you think!
Burning your PS3 games has its benefits and can save you a lot of money and within hours you can have a backup of all your PS3 games allowing you to keep your originals.
