I was wondering if dual layer discs work for backing up games larger 4.7GB? Was gonna try Ninja Gaiden but don't want to buy a disc only to have it not work as DVD+R DL discs are $10 each here.
Yeah they will work. Also, there is about 2GB worth of crap on there that can be deleted to make it fit on a single layer DVD. You can get a full list of what needs to be taken out from here http://www.balugabutt.com/xoops/modules/wfsection/article.php?articleid=213
yeah, it can be shrunk down to fit a normal DVD if you do not want to spend the money on a DL disc. I know mine works fine on a 4.7GB, but someone else did the work for me
I had the same issues with FarCry Instincts Evolution and Midnight Club 3 Dub Edition Remix. It's become a very common practice to just remove these useless files. I don't speak italian, french, or japanese. And I don't need to hear them on my games; so I cut them a lot of times.
You can back up the full version of ninja gaiden with out[bold] deleting anything[/bold] 1 copy the game over to your pc 2 get hold of a copy of qwix, use this to make the iso. 3 make sure that you tick the box to automatically cross link identical file 4 burn the disc using dvd decryptor 5 if decryptor won't burn it use nero and set overburning in neros option menu
Good call there; I was really nervous about that at first; because I've heard that it doesn't always burn right; but after testing, it works fine. Good extra info.
